Worth The Investment...

Christopher Peacock cabinetry/kitchens.  With high end finishes of platinum and precise cabinetry design, it doesn't come cheap.  However, if you think about how much time you spend in the kitchen and divide that by the total cost to get a "price per day" estimate, the expense is completely justified.  Not to mention the joy it would bring to your heart to cook in one of these beauties everyday... that, my friends is priceless...

Wings To Fly...

I've been coveting "angel wings" as of late.  Looking at them {or wearing them as I have a certain "angel wing" necklace from Jewelry by Veronique}, I feel protected, free, peaceful and light.  Would love this pair to grace a bookshelf in my office.  A constant reminder to get out of the trenches of daily life... be free, peaceful, light... and fly...
