so many hats and only one head!

i really love hats and am so glad they are making a comeback. this lovely one is from anthropologie. does anyone else adore them as much as me?

Nun on a bike

the hubs and i spent our saturday in asheville with a couple of our friends. we brunched at the grove park inn and then the boys went to see the expendables while us gals did a little shopping. we all had dinner at tupelo honey cafe i downtown where the nun riding a bike was seen peddling around downtown. asheville is a very interesting place, let me tell you. you really never know what you will see.

lazy days

i consider this a mid - day snack. a little dip in lake lure, nc. just floating around on a noodle and kayaking around the cove with family.

a low key birthday for the man

he wanted sushi. so we had sushsi. and lobstah. and meandered around my favorite city, asheville. and ended the night with drinks at a rooftop bar. we took a really cool, old elevator to the top. it was a fun night for the man who turned 32. me- i'm still in my 20's. i guess you could say i go for the older man. heehee.

Myrtle Beach dreamin'

the hubs and i spent a long weekend in myrtle beach, sc a couple weeks ago with my parents. they have been coming to myrtle for many, many years. although i do prefer charleston for many other reasons , it's always nice to visit here once in a while.

fall pieces

i. love. this. jacket. it would make a great statement piece for fall. it's from anthropologie. no wonder i adore it so much.

i'm rather fond of food

a flourless chocolate torte from the french broad chocolate lounge

my homemade artisan salad with fresh mushrooms, homegrown tomatoes, cucumbers, orange poppy seed dressing, and a side of smoked gouda.
