Making Lemonade

Hello Readers!  So, we're sure you've noticed that we've been M.I.A. for some time.  Our internet has been down at home for over three weeks and we're going bananas!!!  We were only able to publish this post because we spent the 4th of July weekend with family and they were nice enough to share their Wi-Fi.  When life gives us lemons, however, we make lemonade. Or rather, we post about lemons.  Either way, we've been inspired by one of our favorite summer colors, YELLOW!  Until we're back up and running at home, we hope you'll enjoy a glass of our lemonade.

What's Black, White and Chic All Over...?

Sometimes the most dramatic and memorable creations are the result of pure and simple combinations. The cabin in our minds should celebrate that concept and lately we’ve been completely smitten with the classic pairing of black and white. On a recent visit to The Mark Hotel in New York City, we fell in love with Jacques Grange’s sophisticated and glamorous high contrast creation. After a few cups of Black coffee that afternoon… and a black and white cookie (no joke) we came to the realization that maybe this duet has the upper hand. After all, what other marriage has eternally remained chic and stylish, continues to feel fresh and current, while remaining a true classic.
