Happy Thursday!

I just love these short work weeks after a holiday. Every week should be a 4 day work week in my opinion!

I picked up our second load of veggies the other day. Here they are on the counter, aren't they beautiful and delicious looking?

Thanks to the CSA, I've recently discovered a love for fresh dill. I threw some on top of a salad the other night and last night made a pesto-ish sauce with dill rather than basil and used it to top a chicken breast. Delish - so fresh and summery!

Dream Design Friday

**In an attempt to a) bring some structure to my blog, b) blog more frequently, and c) keep home renovation talk from dominating, I'll be introducing a few theme days. Friday will be 'Dream Design Fridays' since I've got a pretty big renovation project underway! Please feel free to share ideas and pictures - I'm not the most creative person in the world so I'd love any and all input. Thanks!**

Some dream kitchens that I'm loving right now...

I love the white marble counter tops and the glass front cabinets. But is this too much white?
Beautiful tile back splash and that stove/oven is amazing!

Love the furniture-like details of these cabinets...

Another white on white design and the back splash over the range is pressed tin ceiling tiles - I love the bit of antique charm that adds to this sleek kitchen.
