Country Strong

As loyal readers know, I am a little bit country, but hardly any rock and roll! When assessing my style, I don't think "edgy" is a word that would roll off of your tongue. A quick peek at my Manifesto page (which houses my design portfolio), will show that I go for a clean-lined elegance. At least that is what I hope you get out of it. (Wink!)

But there is that part of me that swoons over anything with chippy paint. It is that same part that loves to cook nightly meals for my boys, adores my cutting garden in Montauk, and can't pass up a good farmer's or flea market. Heck, Larry and I are choosing neighborhoods for our future home in NYC based on how close the apartment would be to the legendary Union Square Green Market.

Last Friday, I got to indulge my country side. I had the great pleasure of accompanying my friend Jennifer to the Country Living Fair in Rhinebeck NY. As I lingered over all of the enticing displays, I kept losing Jenn!

So while I am eagerly looking forward to a move to NYC next spring, I also am delighted that the men in my family want a hunting cabin in Dutchess County NY, where Rhinebeck is located. Perfect for me to get out my country "ya ya's." when it comes to decorating.

Doesn't the fair look fun? We had a blast.
