The brilliant outdoors

We had our first "fall" weather weekend this past weekend - mid-80s, guys.  And yes, everyone here was freaking out.  This is the first weekend I've seen people leave their doors open and drive around during the day with their windows rolled down.  The fall weather compelled me to bake some dinner rolls and whip up some pumpkin butter to go along with it.  We are going to get way fat this fall for sure.

How was your weekend?  I hope you all had some gorgeous weather as well.  I found another cute little cottage, looking good for being built in 1935.  Ignore the different style wood floors throughout, which just adds to the quirkiness of the place.  I'm a big fan of the large tree painting in the living room as well as the crazy abundance of BIG windows.  **Let the sunshine in**

  3. I love the arches and my dream: floor to ceiling windows. The kitchen is a bit traditional/country for me, but I love the living room and that little paneled sitting room. Good choice, Rooth!

  4. I really love that backyard. Ours is about the same size, and I can see this totally in our own space. <3 Our weather the past weekend was kinda sucky coz it was raining the whole day Saturday. I'll take your mid-80's any day:D

  5. That master bedroom is straight out of a West Elm catalog (seriously: night table, duvet, pillows, and I'm pretty sure the headboard!) so naturally I love it. And that drum pendant light over the dining room table? Also West Elm and I have it in gray! Ha! I'm laughing that mid 80s for you guys is fall. Girl, this morning it was high 50s and I needed a coat. SO PUMPED.

  11. I really like the front of the house and the backyard...and the layout of the house. There must be a flaw, but I don't see it.

    The rolls and pumpkin butter sound like they're more than worth the calories. The thought has me salivating a little. That almost never happens!
