I’ve been searching around the Web for some inspiring décor ideas for the holiday season and wanted to share some of my favorites. From traditional to contemporary, a little touch of Christmas to dramatic decor, there’s something for everyone!

I Love BBQ
I really, really love BBQ! I don’t mean just grilling or just ribs or just sauce, I mean, Southern-style, spice-rubbed, pork bbq with all the fixins. One of my favorite things to do in Hot Springs is sample the local bbq. BBQ places in Hot Springs are like coffee shops in the city, they’re everywhere. […]
The Lake Effect
My family spends Thanksgiving week at our lake house in Hot Springs, Arkansas. My ancestors on my mother’s side first moved to this area in the 1800s.

Inspired by: Pumpkin
Fall is one of my favorite seasons. From the cool, crisp days to the hearty cuisine to Thanksgivings spent at the lake, there’s just something so cozy and comforting about this time of year! One of my friends has a fabulous foodie blog called Charm & Salt. I recently saw one of her posts about […]
Announcing the Arrival of…
Starting a business is like having a baby. At least that’s what all of my friends who have had babies tell me. I suppose there are some similarities, though. I have spent months going over and over different questions. What do I like about what I do? What would I like to change? What would […]
