On the Right Foot: Rewiring a Vintage Lamp, Potato Milk, Kimchi Cream Cheese Dip & More!

February 7, 2022 by jessica Leave a Comment

Our product selections (above) for the powder room are coming together! Here are the links for the tile (bought locally), faucet, light fixture, and hand towel. (We’re using these shades for the sconce.) Work begins on Feb. 15 and once the powder room is done, we’ll start work on the main bathroom. I can’t wait!

I’m drawn to homes with neutral colors, but with a variety of textures and accessories that keep it from being boring. This tour is worth a scroll.

Kimchi meets cream cheese in a dip that I have to make soon!

I pre-ordered Emily Henderson’s upcoming book.

The latest list of covetable finds. I’m crushing on that coat!

It looks like potatoes are the next source of non-dairy milk.

Sarah Jessica Parker designed the heels in And Just Like That.

It gives me immense joy that there’s a cat in the White House again. I wrote to the Clinton’s cat Socks as a kid and received an “autographed” photo as a reply. I’m tempted to send a letter to Willow on Oliver’s behalf.

Dusting off your passport in the next year or two? Consider adding Lisbon to your travel plans with my list of recommendations.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
