some of my favorite things

Just a few of my favorite things of late.

~pig tissues from target~

~hungry chipmunk in our front yard~

~smart thermostat - the nest~

~cloudy day with a view of the towers~

~a sweet-scented candle is even better on sale! thanks, anthro~

~a new book {paris! sweets!} and macaron boxes~

some of my favorite things : around the house

This weekend, I picked up a few things to add a little whimsy to the house. 

~spooning leads to forking. new art in the kitchen - a giant spoon from my mother-in-law~

~first spotted this little piggy at sur la table. found it on discount home goods.~

~daffodils : the perfect way to welcome spring~

~this little piggy will live in the garden, glowing pink at night after soaking up the sun all day {it's solar!}~

i'm dreaming of a white christmas...

...a white Christmas coat, that is. I popped in to Anthropologie and fell in love {it's too easy to do in that store, don't you agree?} with this winter white coat. As I mentioned before, I have an unhealthy obsession with coats, and this one is so gorgeous. That neckline? In the words of Rachel Zoe, I die.

Have I found my Christmas present to myself a little early this year?

I think so, yes.
