Weathered, metallic cabinet doubles as our liquor cabinet. . . Sewing machine legs are the base for a side mantle in the living room. (Matt Condron painting hangs behind)

Grace, I hate to do this to you here but can you let Eve know that I haven’t received the adoption forms. I know she’s dyin’ to take me in as one of her own but if we’re gonna make this happen we need to get the paperwork filed. Y’know?

I just hope she cleans up a bit before I arrive. ;)

LOVE this! Oh so much!

(Hope wedding planning is going along swimmingly!)

I want to chop it up and eat it plain. But, come on, no kid is going to rock that seam between the rug and floor. These shots are a little too perfect, like a backlit image of a fast food hamburger combo.

Lovely home! I just wonder if people know something I don’t. Can you really have a white rug in your home with kids, and under the dining table, no less? How do you keep something like that clean? I’d really be interested if there is a means of cleaning these effectively.

Thanks for all the great comments! I wanted to answer some of the questions:

1. Heath tile in kitchen is FERN (glossy).

2. Kitchen counter is a material called CaesarStone – very durable and comes in a ton of colors.

3. Painting over my bed is by an artist called Hal McCartor: http://www.mccartor.net

4. Clipped prints are from http://www.idapearle.com/

5. White carpets are really kid friendly – they are Super-cheapo shags from Home Depot. I can bleach the spots right out and have even taken scissors to cut away gum or playdough.

6. And Uncle Beefy, if you don’t mind sharing a bedroom with 2 kids, yes I’ll adopt you!
