we pass through… Calvert, Texas ever time we visit my brother and I KNOW I’ve seen this place before but for whatever reason I never have stopped. Shame on me. I know better. When I see good graphic design there’s pretty much a SURE BET that something cool is happening there so last time I was driving through I whipped the car around to finally discover crazy couture chocolate in Calvert (a teenincy town between College Station and Waco) AKA Cocoamoda. Photos below (shot with my iphone - please forgive!!), a GREAT video that captures chef Ken Wilkinson’s personality (he’s hysterical) and more beautiful photos I found when writing this up on my pal Rebecca Sherman’s lovely blog Houses Gardens People here.

how incredible… I’m crazy about faceted anything. I was looking on Etsy last night and that sent me into a tale spin of facets. You HAVE to check out Pleat Farm. How insane are these Winnipeg Skating Shelters by Vancouver based Patkau Architects. See a few more of my fav discoveries below.

fell in love with this today… line drawings by Jorinde Voigt via designworklife. Whoa.
Enjoy your weekend!

today i’m thrilled to share with you… a long overdue home tour – the home of one of my favorite people in the world, my best friend Sarah. Steele is her last name (she married into it, I think it’s very soap opera fabulous, don’t you?). Her interior style is gorgeously polished and classic but layered and collected. She loves art, reclaimed furniture and definitely light heavenly colors I like to think of as Hamptons-esque. She and I love to watch movies like Something’s Gotta Give over and over (thank goodness for Google), not just for Diane and Jack but we LOVE the house. It’s wholly tailored and serenely laid back at the same time. Welcome to the Steele household…
