Buon Natale

Here's to warm fires, good friends, the perfect tree, stockings, and of course lots of cheer.  

Wishing you a very very Merry Christmas - Buon Natale!

Coasters

You probably caught a little glimpse of the Laura Fair coasters I used for our intimate Thanksgiving lunch.  I should really say that it was not just lunch...but an all day grazing, that seems to be the norm for everyone, right?

Introducing the Casablanca Collection by Laura Fair for Cypress Home including bright graphic drink coasters, underplates, placemats, wine bottle coasters, and even car coasters! 

These cute, durable, and functional little gems even made the front display window at the Evergreen showroom.  Seeing new product hit the stores is so rewarding, it really makes it all worthwhile.

Novembre

The view has been incredible this past month of November...but then again, he delivers a little something to us every year...including some

 spectacular light shows

intimate holidays with a mix of new (check out those Laura Fair coasters!)

and old (Bionda-Bruna Montalla plates)

 spooky mixes of light, smoke and fog spread over the valley

 an abundant bounty from nature...porcini and electric green olive oil

golden relaxing dusks, although they came a little early for me,

at least they left a lasting impression.
