100-year-old cabinets and a new fancy-pants range.

100-year-old cabinets and a new fancy-pants range. A tin ceiling that’s not original, but could trick you into thinking it might be. A fresh coat of paint after stripping the old wallpaper and I’m in love.

Chicago was beautiful yesterday and the @thedrewbarrymoreshow was in front of The Bean taping a Drew’s News segment. So glad to have been invited to meet @drewbarrymore! It’s a genuine joy to watch someone do the thing they’re good at, and clearly Drew was meant to have this show. 🤍

🏙 The Chicago episode airs November 18!

I’m still loving my chair with its new look courtesy of @calicocorners! Do you want to see some of the other fabrics I was considering during the reupholstery process? There was the floral that was very “floral 2.0” - an elevated version of the chair’s original fabric. It was close, but the one I went with reminded me of granny squares, and something about that really charmed me. Calico made the intimidating task of reupholstering so easy and the final look is just perfect!

The tiniest fluffball of a puppy ran off from its family and up to us as we were leaving the park, and I did NOT gently scoop it up to take it home with us even though I really very easily could have. I let its owners catch up and retrieve it but I stress to you: VERY CUTE. My self-restraint is enormous. And here is a picture of my family because I did not photograph the tiny pup. 💁🏻‍♀️

This chair was a floor model and had a rip in the fabric when I bought it a decade ago. I patched it up and loved it, but the fabric finally gave out across the seat and it was time to reupholster. I went to @calicocorners in Hinsdale and explored different fabric options with Linda from their design team. (You were great Linda, thank you!) Thanks to Calico, my chair is back and ready for the next decade in a new pattern that I love!

I tried to wear the eyeball perfume the other day and realized, nope. Not for me anymore. But I still like the bottle. 👁

It’s a whole thing: accounts that chronicle going gray. I guess I could have (should have) hopped on that train but here we are and my hair is fully grown out. I stopped dying it in December 2019 and I cut off the old ends a few months ago.

I don’t feel conflicted. I don’t feel insecure. I kind of have highlights now!? I love it.
