My friend just moved into a sixth-floor walk-up, and her small bedroom is sunny and bright, but painted the owner’s old white. She asked me for color suggestions and I’m thinking a creamy pink. I love the color of my own room, it feels like a womb, and the photo above is Harriet Slaughter’s Bedroom in Lime white. What bedroom colors do you like?
We’re big fans of The Dolphin Studio’s iconic calendars (I know many of you are too); They have such a devoted following that they sell out every year. Good news: This week, Dolphin Studio releases a Printing clubwhere you get a new print every month or every two months. They come with a frame so you can rotate your favorites; and you can hang them on the wall or display them on a table. I would love to put them in our kitchen. You can only join once a year, from January 28 to February 1so register hereif you like. (I already did 🙂
Last week I asked for chocolate dessert recommendations for my birthday and this community really responded. “How are you Ina Garten’s Viral Brownie Pudding?” suggested a reader named Elizabeth. Julia added: “I was just about to suggest this brownie pudding too! I made it for my spouse’s birthday and it’s DELICIOUS.” More readers agreed, and then Anon wrote a cute comment: “Speaking of Ina, my toddler once found my old Barefoot Contessa cookbook and I caught him licking the page with the chocolate dessert.”
My twin sister also celebrates her birthday this Saturday, so the kids and I went to French beansa very cool charm store in Brooklyn, and picked out 10 charms that felt like her, including hiking boots, a space shuttle (she went to Space Camp as a kid!), and the jam she always has in her refrigerator. I can’t wait for the necklace to arrive at your house. xoxo
What have you been up to lately? Any good programs, books, recipes or finds? xoxo
PS: More fun stuff and 12 readers share their favorite birthday celebrations.
