FOUR, LITTLE IG BOXES

The softer side of a rather harsh winter.
“Sometimes the most holy thing we can do is to be still. To sit down and twirl the fork and eat the pasta we’re given.” - @erinloechner •• Or in this case, cherry delight - the first dessert I’ve ever attempted from scratch, which happens to be my mother’s recipe, and is served on a plate from the set used throughout my childhood.

Happy love day ♥︎. Last year, we built an epic blanket fort. This year, we are having an epic appetizer night. Now ... to choose a 90s romance film to watch ... suggestions? Photographer: @nathanw_photo
I can promise you this room is not clean RN. Not. Even. Close. Anywho ... swipe to travel back in time to spring 2014. Kudos to my very talented husband (who makes all my reno dreams come true with his mad skills). Photographer: @emilieiggiottiphotos #heritagehomereno

I am 98% certain that I have resolved the ‘great sofa debate’ that was up on my IG stories a few days ago ... and the winner (for now ... dear Lord do not let me change my mind again) is ... *drum roll* ... the new caramel sofa. #heritagehomereno
