November is a time for gatherings.  It is when we slow down and take stock of what matters to us.  It is a month we celebrate a holiday centered on the idea of gratitude.  We gather our friends and family to share a meal and to be thankful.  It is one of my favorite months.

However, this November my heart is heavy.  As I sit to write these words, I cannot help but think about our friends and allies in France.  This past week's horrific events have created fear and uncertainty and remind us of how very fragile life can be.  Perhaps there is a lesson in all of this sadness and it is to remind us of what is really important.

So, I invite you to gather those close to you and show them how grateful you are to have them in your life.  Be thankful for the important things and make every day beautiful and special.

Vive La France!

Warm Regards,
Kim

Kim's Pearls



The entertaining season is upon us and the idea of it strikes fear and trepidation in the hearts of many. However, I am one of those crazy people who look forward to it.  For me, entertaining is another creative outlet, and although I enjoy cooking, I thrive on the whole process of entertaining.  I love creating an "event" for my guests and leaving them with fond memories of an evening well spent. Fortunately, I am married to someone who also enjoys the process and over the years we have entertained a lot.

Here are a few things I have learned:

Vendor Spotlight -- Currey & Company

I first discovered Currey & Company in 1989 when they were mostly in the business of making reproductions of historic garden furniture (I still have the cutest iron chair from their Winterthur collection sitting at my vanity).  At that time, they also offered a few key lighting pieces.  At first sight, I knew Currey & Company was special.  The line was interesting, organic and fresh! It was just what the design industry had been pining for -- a home furnishings line that was unique and memorable.

After 26 years, our love affair with Currey & Company continues and this is why...  [read more]
