Lilacs and a Thank You!

I want to thank Michele of My Notting Hill for naming my blog among her favorites in a fantastic interview done by Emily Leaman at Washingtonian magazine! Read the entire article HERE: she has some great solutions for common design problems that I think everyone will appreciate. All of our April showers have brought us beautiful May flowers! These are some fragrant lilacs I picked up tonight, aren't they beautiful!

    You deserve mention in the Washingtonian. Your blog is a breath of fresh air. You never know what you are going to get (that's from some movie, right?) and you have a unique voice.

    Thank you, Terry! It wasn't my mention though, it was My Notting Hills - a fantastic blog! I was just thrilled she mentioned me :-)

    Thanks Paul, I have a lot of art LOL. You can see better pictures of the artwork on my apartment therapy home tour, if you're curious. They're all antique architectural students work - watercolors.I have more rolled up ready to be framed even! They're really beautiful!

    the lilacs Are Beautiful- to look at and remember. Just a mention and I think of my gran- who grew them (and they say they don't grow well in NC-haha) and wore them as fragrance quite often. GT

    I read the article! YAY!

    Between the lilacs, the wisteria, the azaleas and the dogwood, it's the best time of the year (if you don't have allergies).

    Oh lovely lilacs....I am most definitely longing for some myself now. Congratulations on the mention. Starting to think I may out of my league during your upcoming tea! But, still very much loking forward to it.
