Thomas the Cat gets a new room

My sweet friend TW has wanted to update her guest bedroom that also doubles at Thomas' own little haven. This is Thomas....yes...he owns the place...and he only comes out to greet you when he is good and ready...got it!

So, when she was trying to decide what to do she wanted something that could withstand his lounging and rolling around on any surface that he so desired....

decision...

my all time favorite to add in

burlap...

then TW added in some linen, leather, and leopard

also my favorites

TW loved it, I loved it and I am sure Thomas is settling in to the new look just fine...

oh, for the coverlet, she found a mattelasse that is cream on one side and tan color close to the color of the burlap on the other.

We both decided the bed needs one more rectangular pillow right in front of the leather euro shams...

always fun to see something come together after thinking and talking about it for...

um, years...

:)

The Best Carrots....EVER!!!

When I saw this recipe for carrots

I knew.....

that. I. would. love. them.

I have a horrible, worst thing ever sweet tooth

always have

always will....

I think my mother's fabulous desserts growing up has ruined me 

or 

I had the best mother ever!!!

yeah...I think it's the latter....

so, I was looking for something to go with our chicken and green beans

and...

I had some carrots that I cut real thin

or if you are chef like 

I julienne'd....

is that a word?

Anyway, if you are looking for a wonderful, fabulously sweet vege to go with your meal

you should try the

Brown Sugar Oven Roasted Carrots

You will not be disappointed!!!
