Cozy, Cosy

Hi friends!
I know I've been MIA lately.
I miss you!

(via The English Home)

I've been short on time, so blogging has taken a backseat.
While I have a bazillion things I'd like to blog about I'm going to 
keep this post short + sweet....

While the boys were in school this morning,
I snuck away with a pumpkin spice latte to a favorite
 local bookstore where I nestled down in a squishy armchair 
with an arm load of shelter mags.
Not a bad way to start the day, if I may say so.
I scanned some favorite pics just for you.
Enjoy!

So charming!!  (I know Holly, I know.  It's off white!!!)

The striped rug + the antiques + the framed art!!

The light yellowy-green paint....Those curtains!!!

The green painted millwork. Soooo stinkin pretty!

Toile.  I still love you.



It's supposed to be a light mac & cheese.
It didn't really taste like mac + cheese.
It was better.
Of course I'm addicted to butternut squash. Addicted.
This recipe will not dissapoint.
(the only change I made was to skip the blender.  
I hate to have extra dishes to clean. 
I used a hand held immersion blender right in the saucepan.  
I was also far more liberal with salt and pepper, but that's just me.)  

xo, 
Tessa
