Blue living room walls on my mind...

LOVE this color palette. My Inspiration..

 Believe it or not.. I've lived in my apartment for a year now and I have not had any time to paint it.  I'm finally ready!  I've done every color under the sun over the years and grey has been the most consistent for me, but I keep feelin' blue!  I was thinking navy, but I like a bit of green in the blue too.  My Sofa is brown, my favorite color is yellow/green. If any one knows what the color of this wall is, please let me know!  Open to other fantastic blue suggestions..

 

Thanks and Enjoy..



The best "Farm Burger" Atlanta..

 

 

I don't know if it's crazy to blog about a burger joint in Atlanta, but I loved it so much that I had to share.  I'm in Atlanta to attend a two day Design Camp and I arrived a day early to have some  "me" time. I'm walking around town looking for a place to have dinner and I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw a place called Farm Burger!  Of course I can't help myself because I"m thinking, "what's a farm burger"?. Which is probably the natural reaction for most who have never heard of this place .

As I enter to stand online, of course I'm looking around reading the menu boards and there it is.. the definition of farm burger.

 

 Farm burger wants you to think about your burger - what it is and where it's from.

Our burgers  are  made from 100% grassfed beef that is dry-aged and ground fresh. 

Our cows are raised on the sweet grasses of the southeast, and never fed antibiotics, hormones, or grain. 

Our menu is seasonal and sourced from local farms.

Our space is convivial and comfortable; because eating is a celebration to be shared.

Our food makes ethical eating easy.

 

Well... It sure made ME want to try one!  I grab a menu and stand on line. So you order before you're seated, which is cool.  You can build your own burger and you can order sweet teas, root bear, milkshakes, floats.. or local draft beers, even wine. I ordered a beer, which is make local, and it was fantastic! 

 

Aside from the food, of course, I'm scoping out the décor.  It's very relaxed with a vintage, rustic feel. The walls are wood planks, with exposed wood beams, industrial stools and chairs and dark, distressed concrete floors.   I love the service details.. I sat at the bar and there were stations set up with canning jars filled with silverware, and wire baskets with condiments.  The server was making a milkshake and pulled out a vintage milk bottle! Every detail is addressed.  

It was about 6:30 and the place was jam packed.  It's not you're average burger joint...it's a very cool atmosphere. I felt comfortable and it's definitely a place you could go with a group of friends, your family or alone if you prefer.  The food, the beer and décor was great and I only spent $21.00 with a tip!

I hope there's a Farm Burger coming to NY soon!

 

Enjoy..

Soho house NYC - industrial vintage chic

Oh, how I wish I could stay at Soho House NYC.  Keep wishin' Mimi and pretty much most of us real peeps out there... cause it's a members only club.   The private member' club are for those who are in the film, media or creative industries. Perspective members need to be nominated by TWO existing members.. but thankfully for them, it could be members of ANY 11 Soho houses located around the globe.   And then there's the nominal membership fees.

You know.. come to think of it.. I may have a window of opportunity, since I am in the creative industry!  One never knows...

Enjoy!
