“ I was taken by the power that savoring a simple cup of coffee can have to connect people and create community.”

- Howard Schultz ⠀⠀
Some people of bar carts, I have a coffee bar. (This is the sketch me app applied to a photo taken at Madeleine, a pastry shop in Pittsburgh.)

“There is no measure for the impact a teacher can have on a child’s life.” ⠀⠀
In the past, I have given teachers a set of measuring cups or spoons with a tag with the above written on it. A simple, practical, useable gift with a thought behind it. ✔️
⠀⠀
These measuring cups are from Nadeau but I have also found some at Ikea.

I made a field trip to the Anthropology Furniture Outlet in the north hills of Pittsburgh, PA today. ⠀⠀
Review:
There was a lot of furniture- if you are into mid century modern or boho or glam- there is something for you! Lots of artwork & wall hangings, rugs, light fixtures & lamps. No small accessories. ⠀⠀
Some prices were great, some not so great. For example, a rug might be $350 for a woven indoor outdoor kind of rug (not worth it in my opinion) and it was the same price for a wool plush hand tied ply rug (great deal.) know what I mean?! The rugs with dense hairs?! ⠀⠀
It just depends if you can find the color & style you are looking for. ⠀⠀

Life is Sweet ⠀⠀
Here is another one of my favorite photo apps, it is called “Waterlogue” swipe through to see the different looks for one photo... I mean painting. The options are endless that you can do with these effects. ⠀⠀
A 5 mile walk through Frick Park deserves a stop at Madeleine. ⠀⠀

“There’s something special about gathering a few favorite people for a meal. A beautifully set table is the perfect canvas for a delicious meal.”
- Chantal Larocque
⠀⠀
Have you planned your thanksgiving table setting yet? I’m tossing lots of ideas around myself. We hope to have friends from Germany join us this year and so much to be grateful for. My son studying in Germany is figuring out how he can introduce his friends to a thanksgiving feast since they don’t celebrate it there. ⠀⠀
This photo is of an inspiring table from a “Lisa ‘s for Lunch” day. Swipe for the full color- the blue & mustard with fall colors are beautiful💙🍁.
⠀⠀
I used an app called “sketch me” for the photo to sketch look.

“Success is sometimes the outcome of a whole string of failures.” (October 1, 1872) -Vincent Van Gogh
⠀⠀
What failures have lead to success in your life? ⠀⠀
Painting- Wheat Fields after the Rain (The Plain of Auvers), 1890 ⠀⠀
I love the colors, the neat rows of fields, the puffy clouds, the disorder with order. This is my favorite Van Gogh. ⠀⠀

True. I moved into this home trying to make it and this place has made me back. ⠀⠀

“And I can't believe I see...
A hundred yellow ribbons round the ole oak tree!” Yellow ribbons and this song remind me of my childhood. I’m so grateful for those who have served our country, especially our special Air Force & Vietnam veteran, my Dad, “Major Gee.” ⠀⠀
Our Lincoln Elementary School had an amazing Veteran’s Day Ceremony today. Thank you.

It’s almost time for reindeer games! ⠀⠀
I had to snap this photo of a Caribou at the Carnegie Museum in Pittsburgh to show the kids what animal the antlers over our fireplace came from. ⠀⠀
What a beautiful design antlers are! I love them and they work in our boho/eclectic/two story Tudor too. ⠀⠀
