Wishful Wednesday: Lighting

We have had a lovely break since the kitchen transformation, but need to kick it back into gear to get the project finished completely. Up on the list to complete the project is: 
  • Lighting pendants above the stove
  • New barstools for our new sit-up bar
  • Paint the walls grey
I the industrial/farmhouse pendant lighting look! Here is some inspiration for the lighting I want to have above our stove:

Tasty Tuesday: Baked Parmesan Tomatoes

I hope all of you had a lovely New Year! Our New Year was absolutely fabulous...ringing it in, as always, in Ixtapa, Mexico!

It seems that ever since Matt and I have updated our kitchen, we have been on the go nonstop, traveling like crazy! Trust me, I LOVE traveling and will take every travel opportunity that comes my way, but now that I enjoy spending time in my kitchen, it seems like I don't have it. 


One of my goals for this year is to spend as much time as we can in our new home with friends and family (when we are in Arizona, and not on the go that is...you only live once right!!)


While I was browsing Pinterest, I came across this super easy recipe for Baked Parmesan Tomatoes that can be used as a side dish, tapas, or small appetizer.





They are quick, healthy, inexpensive, and best of all...Delish!


Buon appetito!
