Fragrance Find


If you know me, you will know that I worked as an Art Director for a fragrance company for 4yrs, though I do longer work in the personal care industry I do still enjoy fragrance and find that it is still fun to explore really great fragrances and recently I found another that may just be another favorite. Gucci Guilty is a really great florioriental that is both warm and sexy but not over powering like some similar fragrances. I love how it dries down to a very wearable scent that you could easily incorporate into your every day style. I may test it a time or two more before an actual purchase however from my first impression this is a really great fragrance!

Inkwell Dinnerware


Got a really cool email from Anthropologie (one of my favorite be it so expensive I rarely buy anything from there places) but I thought I would share this decorative plate set that would be really fun to get if we actually had a house out in the woods to entertain with! Enjoy!

Brews Day Review :: Bell's 25th Anniversary Ale

This tasty gem I found just came into our favorite lil liquor/beer store and I HAD to get it as Bells is probably one of our most favorite breweries. Based out of Kalamazoo, MI we have actually been there twice. All of their beer is distinct with so much personality and awesome flavors and this beer was no exception!

Our best description of this beer is a very subtle amber ale with a smooth, floral hoppy flavor. I would recommend this to even someone that isn't a hop lover because on the second one I really got a nice caramel and effervescence that I did not expect, almost something you would get more out of a Belgian style of sorts. Over all this is a great beer that I hope they continue to make!

Waterfalls :: UP style

If you are in Northern Wisconsin and are looking for a fun and beautiful day trip, I highly recommend making a trip to Michigan's U.P. and checking out one of their many waterfalls, our favorite is Bond Falls near Paulding/Bruce's Crossing Michigan. Here are some awesome shots the husband took while we were there!
