On the list of ‘things I want to be when I grow up’, Inn-Keeper ranks somewhere near the top. It’s no surprise then that any given year, my teeny flat (600 and change sq feet) is home to visitors, travelers and nomads alike. I like it, as it gives me the chance to be a [...]

Food to Fragrance: Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune meets Grapefruit Panna Cotta
As I sit here sniffing a blotter drenched in Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune I find my salivary glands going into overdrive. It’s amazing the power scent has over the body and mind to react in the way it does. A few weeks ago a friend was asking me if I had heard about Synesthesia, indeed I [...]

Kitchen Envy: A last minute contender
I was all ready to write up a blog post about coolhaus after having a lacklustre week of kitchen envy searching, when a tweet from @livingetc resulted in me coming across a last minute contender.

Etsy T-T-T-Tuesday: I was lost but now i'm found(vintage)

Stylin' picnic'ing in Vogue { almost }
I came across the above 2007 Vogue outtake picture of a rather stylin’ picnic on model Coco Rocha’s blog. The shot is a perfectly heady mix of costume, eclecticism, beauty and charm { I love the little French Bulldogs! }. It seems like last year every blog I read and person I met was determined [...]

What’s cooking my *blogships?
As with every week, last week was a good week for food focused chatter. It’s funny just how often the subject of food comes up in any given week. It’s even funnier how often friends give me knowing glances when I am around a conversation that has to do with food, it seems my craven [...]
