Change is coming | the simple proof

A Bowl Full of Simple | Home Office Inspiration

I am finally designing a small home office for myself.  I’ve been dreaming of this dedicated workspace for so long!  I tried the office-in-the-kitchen thing, did NOT work for me.  Then when we remodeled in 2009, I built a small desk space in the mudroom/laundry room which was way too small.  Then I started a […]

A Bowl Full of Simple // Weekend Links | November

  Whoa, I’m back from a week of really fun travel and down with a cold, ick!  But between spending 4 days in NYC last week and the weather in California finally turning a little cooler, it’s beginning to feel like fall.  So I made a pot of one of my favorite easy soups and […]
