Happy New Year!

Just back from my trip down south. Santa left this under the tree for me! I will be making a roast later for dinner. The holiday was filled with lots of baking, cooking, and spending time with family. We are driving upstate this evening for the long weekend. Have a happy new year!

Scenes From The Holiday…

We spent Thanksgiving upstate this year. It was the first Thanksgiving that was virtually stress free! We had six people including ourselves. In the past we would invite way too many people for our small house. This was so much better! I actually got to sit and relax.

We spent four days, and four nights. It was like a mini vacation. We decided to drive back to Brooklyn on Saturday afternoon instead of Sunday. There was hardly any traffic, and there was plenty of parking on our block. I will have fond memories of this holiday always.

I have been a busy little bee lately. Thought I would share some of the lovely fall weather we have been having in Brooklyn.

Yesterday.

Yesterday was my birthday. It was a beautiful sparkly day. I had dinner with friends and cupcakes afterward.

It was the first time that I have baked in six months. I enjoyed it, and they were delicious.

Small Improvements.

We’ve been making some small improvements to our little Brooklyn apartment. This is one side of where there was once a fireplace. It has always bugged me. We decided to build some book shelves to fill the space.

The other side is much wider. This is where my desk is. Forgive the mess of wires underneath.

Now I need to find some things to fill them!

I Love Orange!

Yes it’s true. Orange is my favorite color. Since it is almost October (pumpkin season), I decided to pay tribute.

Rug from West Elm.

Sometimes you only need a touch of orange…

Look what came in the mail yesterday from my lovely niece!
