Dining Room Dreaming



Dining room wishlist:
+ A big, wooden farmhouse table to seat lots and lots of guests
+ A ghost chair or two
+ A big chandelier (or a cool industrial light) to hang over the table

What's in your dream dining room? Or do you already have it?

So Good

J. Crew's winter look book is amazing. I'm obsessed with all of these looks.


Also: Did anyone score any Cyber Monday deals? I'd love to hear!

Thanksgiving + Lately


01. I was in charge of the pies for our Thanksgiving. I made the traditional apple and pumpkin and thankfully they were a hit.
02. Sunday we went in search of our perfect tree. We found a beautiful eight-foot Frasier fir (so nice to have a tall tree compared to our mini one last year).
03. Any excuse to wear my favorite Hunters.
04. Finally started a fire in our fireplace. So cozy.
05. New colors. 

And currently: Listening to Bing Crosby Holiday on Pandora, ordering Christmas cards, trimming the tree, and anticipating our visit back to the east coast for the holidays.

Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful!

Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Layer Cake


Yesterday I made this cake, for no reason other than it looked amazing. And it was. 
(And similar to these).

Have a wonderful weekend! Any big plans?

Cowhide

Lately I've been pinning lots of room with a subtle cowhide on the floor. I love the idea of throwing a smaller version over a chair (like the last picture). Do you have a cowhide in your home?

Also: I am over on Laura's blog today, sharing three things that I am thankful for. Go have a look!
