Need Test Knitters!
Anyone want to test knit a baby cardigan? It's done in DK or sport weight on a US size 4 needle. It's made to go with a little dress that is being tested right now. Please email me if you'd like to give it a go. It's made from the top down and is seamless. I'll also send you the matching d...
Maria,
Your kitchen is beautiful! I love Wilendur tablecloths - that was such a good idea. I just had my kitchen painted this last week. Dont have good photos yet but as a fellow comrade in eschewing the boring, you might appreciate this photo even if you dont appreciate the color.
the next step is to get paint on the wooden cabinets.
Best,
Bronwyn
Red in the Kitchen
Lately, I'm inspired by kitchens with red in them. I need a bit of extra energy in the morning and red is such an uplifting and energetic color to see with that first cup of coffee. I love this sweet child's kitchen playhouse. And the pretty strawberry cabinet covers. Husband loves stainl...
Thanks CJM, i was keeping this in the back of my mind for the day I NEEDED it!

Crocheted Wire Hanger Cover
A crocheted cover for a wire hanger looks great and is the perfect project for those of us who don't have easy access to vintage style wooden hangers. Of course if you can get your hands on some wooden hangers, the two look great together, and you can follow my pattern here! Truthfully, if you...
I have your book....I guess it's time to buy Food and Wine now!
Marrakesh: and a tale of Peacock Pavilions & Moroccan recipes in Food & Wine Magazine
Dear Friends, There's a 12 pages feature in the January 2013 issue of Food & Wine Magazine on a special Moroccan dinner party I hosted at Peacock Pavilions, with friend and chef Mourad Lahlou of Aziza fame (the first Moroccan restaurant to receive a Michelin Star). (Pinch me!) Recipes! Insp...
Sadly, can't get it to work, either. I think more explicit instructions would be helpful. For example do we replace our USERNAME with our Pinterest username in all caps? What if we don't want the specific board? Do we cut out any of the copyright info and instructions in the text file? This would be great in the sidebar but just isn't working after 30 minutes of fiddling. Would appreciate more help!
Weekend Project: Display Your Recent Pinterest Content In Your Blog's Sidebar
Everyone seems to be talking about Pinterest lately, and for good reason - with Pinterest, you can organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web, plan weddings, decorate homes, and even organize recipes - visually and socially. We recently introduced the Pin It button to Typepad...
Oh Maryam, what a pretty post. It's not spring here but I can pretend.
Marrakesh: and a tale of Morocco's roses
In the Spring time, blooming, blooming everywhere... Morocco's roses. And with a twist of a tie... A bouquet... just for you..... Please, I insist. I'm afraid he's not included. My powers remain limited. PS In my book there's a whole chapter on Moroccan gardening and o...
How funny, M - I know this is an older post but I was looking at lace stencils to use on the floor in our new home and saw Skylar's Lace. And I thought, "Hmmmm...the only person I know of with that name is Maryam's daughter." Then I read the link. What a huge and strange coincidence! I so wish I could come with Margaret this year...how funny that two blogs that started years ago have lead to this. Big hug to you.
Royal Design Studio Lace: and a tale of Skylar's floor
She had been born under difficult circumstances just seven years ago, and ever since that singular day, her mother had watched over her with some concern. Slim and seemingly fragile as a blade of grass, she felt things deeply. Easily moved by the tiniest sadness or the smallest happiness, the ...
Ha! When I was halfway through your post I was about to send you an email that said, "I bet he has a pea in his ear!" After taking my share of cockroaches and other things out of ears, it's kind of my specialty, haha! And you're right - ears are gross.
Farmer boy
Imagine that most of this post is backed by intermittent screaming, the kind that jerks a parent awake at night and sends her running down the hall. That was Charlie, several times a night, from the start of this post almost to its end. Here, just shove these in as you're reading, whenever you g...
Congrats, Mowie! I love these photos - they make me feel so happy and ready to get into the kitchen to make something.
Chocolate Clafoutis With Summer Berries And Some News
I've been slightly overwhelmed with work recently, but couldn't go another week without posting at least some photos on this blog. I'm happy to announce that I've been working on my second book - this time it's all about macarons - and I've also been busy shooting and putting together the Ch...
