Blackberry Lemonade
Posted by Purely.. Kay in The Kitchen on May 11, 2012
Yes, today’s Food Friday is all about “Grown-Up Cocktails” (so if you wanted to see a food recipe, come back next week *laughs*). And I absolutely love this Blackberry Lemonade recipe from the amazing blog, with the cute name, The Pastry Affair. This particular drink doesn’t have any alcohol in the ingredients (which is perfect for me), but I’m sure you can pair these flavors with some wonderful alcoholic choices.. so tell me some of your choices below. View the ingredient list below and click the link for the recipe. Happy Friday

Strawberry Champagne Slushies
Posted by Purely.. Kay in The Kitchen on May 11, 2012
It’s food Friday!! But I thought I’d do something different today.. there will be no food (can you imagine saying that to a crowd of hungry children *laughs*). Instead, today’s theme is all about “Grown-Up Cocktails“. And I found this Strawberry Champagne Slushie recipe from the wonderful blog Une Vie Saine. This is such a perfect grown up slushie to enjoy; and this can also be a cool wedding shower/wedding drink as well. Yes, I know I don’t drink.. but I do like some champagnes.. so I will be trying this. View the ingredient list below and click the link for the recipe. 1 more recipe coming up..

Privacy.. with glass
Posted by Purely.. Kay in Architecture on May 10, 2012
I’m pretty sure you’re reading this title thinking.. “You can’t have privacy with glass“.. well when you’re dealing with Mexico City-based architects, ARCO Arquitectura Contemporánea, you can. This 7,588 sq ft, two-story home, is stunning! According to the company’s website, the architects made “important changes to give more privacy. Some elements were added to restrict the access inside the premises.” And with the view this home provides, I’d get me a power washer, take care of those windows, and be happy living here (smiles).

Boldly.. in Love
Posted by Purely.. Kay in Interiors on May 9, 2012
I love so many different design elements, but the one element that’s always left me perplexed was.. patterns. I’ve never known what to do or how to do a patterned wall (laughs).. so I found a designer who did. Los Angeles based, Natalie Younger Interior Design company, makes any room feel elegant with a bold touch. Each time I see a photo, of one of their rooms, I begin to say “Wowwwww” a lot (laughs). I know I’m not the only one that does that when you see a beautiful room (laughs). Click the link to view more. Enjoy

Reflections
Posted by Purely.. Kay in Art on May 8, 2012
The one thing I didn’t know about myself, when I started this blog, was that I LOVE photography and I can’t wait to take photos of my own. With me being an amateur photographer, I think I can learn a lot from Photojournalist Jonathan Auch. His photos, capture real life moments in time with such raw emotion and feeling. I love just about all of his photos, but his photos of New York City (tri-state area) really make me smile.. maybe because its home (smiles). I will definitely be featuring his work again.
