Take This Quiz!
Most of us have wondered, "What am I meant to do in this life?"
Perhaps we are stuck in jobs we don't even like, let alone enjoy.
Or we feel as if we are unfulfilled and wish we were.....?
I found this really great quiz at O Magazine.
It was so thorough, and in my case, basically accurate.
If you are just curious what your answers might reveal, or if
you are a serious seeker after the question, I hope you take this quiz.
Afterward, the quiz reveals lengthy descriptions and feedback of your results.
It gives you a some ideas that may help you in deciding:
What am I truly meant to do?
Take the quiz! : Who Am I Meant To Be?

Lovely Working Kitchens
I say "working" kitchens because although so pretty... they are highly
functional and you just know... these are busy kitchens!
Sweeet!
Great Rooms!
I love a great living room.
Although my personal design style is Mid Century Modern, I love
any design that makes you want to hurry home.
Here are my picks for this week...
Love this!!
I saw this room and it's great area rug over at Bo Concept.
Home Aquarium Lovelies
Aquariums take hard work to keep them fresh and clean let's face it.
But oh, how lovely and calming they are when they are always
available to gaze at in the home.
Here are some lovely ones I found recently...
Wow...
Goodness!!

50 g butter- (3 and 1/2 tbsp)
40 g sugar-(1/3 cup)

Melt the butter in a frying pan, add the pears, honey and seeds from the vanilla bean.

Dip bread in mixture milk / egg and sprinkle lightly with sugar.
Bake in the hot pan and set aside.

Gorgeous Vintage Fashion
I know I've said it a million times... but I seriously think that clothing designed
for women in the 30's, 40's, and 50's, were the best womens wear ever!
The clothing flattered a woman's figure, it was feminine, and usually... it was
made better.
I found these images from Vintage Fashion Guild,
and I love the stuff out of them! :0)
Love them!
