// Looking Forward To...

Departure - Season 2. "Please hold on; this train is departing." Our indoor midweek suspense watch. Definitely! looking forward to more of Kendra Malley (Archie Panjabi) on screen in this new season as she's recruited to investigate the derailment of an experimental high-speed train in a small town. Inundated with "lies, deception, a deadly secret, and having to question everything," here's to another thrilling season with loved Howard Lawson (Christopher Plummer) :). I always try to 'Alfred Hitchcock' new mysteries during the first three minutes, make a quick mental call, and then relax into the episodes. Season 3 promises to be just as exciting... Wednesday, July 13th on Global TV.

 

 

// In Praise of Larger Salad Bowls

I love my lunch salads, regardless of the season and how 'cold' it is outside— so this summer we're embracing the 'larger' salad bowl, celebrating with more healthy and flavourful salad moments: lobster and red snapper included, with balanced dressings. Currently loving this Acacia Wood bowl, and more linked pieces after the jump. It's going to be a wild one...

Cuteness in coasters, ...caught my eye this month, and found here.

// A Beautiful Orchard Carafe

For the lady who loves her weekend glass of bubbly and has dreams taking her to 'magical' orchards ever so often, this beautiful orchard carafe is my gift pick for any occasion, Mother's Day included! And not just for fun vino— spritzers, non-alcoholic punches, mocktails, and even my Pepsi Zero with a squeeze of lime. I love the attention to delicate details and the solid sturdiness of the decanter. Sunday-brunching perfect. :)

 

 

// On My Wildchild Mind...

When you have a serious bond with cranberries, you want to keep them as close as possible, in and out of weekly salads included. One night, recently, I had a dream where I was in a gorgeous cranberry orchard having the time of my life, laughing and dancing away while enjoying some sweet cranberries. On awakening and remembering, I wondered if I could grow a small cranberry plant at home, and as it turns out, I can... this is very exciting news! #when-you-dream-in-fruits...
