Good morning! One thing I love about this time of year is being in the kitchen. I love to cook but even more so during the last months of the year. The produce, the spices, the comfort food. It is all oh so good. So good that I decided, why not share? This one […]

Good morning! I hope you all had a nice weekend. Did any of you spend some time planning for Thanksgiving? I know it may sound early to some of you but for those of us who are hosting a colossal group of people, time is ticking! We went out to dinner on Friday with our […]
Good morning! You may recall that around this time last year, I shared my holiday simmer scent recipe with you. This year, let’s put it all together and create an awesome gift. Cinnamon, Oranges & Cloves… Oh My! This is no-fuss. To be well received. I simply bagged the ingredients and attached a simple label […]

Have you thought about how you are going to style your table? Buffet? Sit down? The list goes on and on and on. I’m here to […]
Oh boy! One week from now… Okay, I won’t go there. Live in the moment, right? A couple of months ago, I was at Pottery Barn and picked up a salt and pepper shaker set. I did it as a joke. John hates squirrels. The squirrels eat our nuts. A lot of them. We lose […]

If you want to maintain place setting protocol and continue to set your table to correspond with the meal, then this might be of some help… njsdesign It is […]
Good morning! I was pricing inventory today and putting everything in place at the store when it just hit me. Why not have an online sale? I know…I have already whispered that I am putting together a mini-online shop page here at Turnstyle Vogue, but while that is a work in progress, why not just […]
Oh my gosh, I am finally starting to take advantage of the slow-pace-of-summer and have to say, I have welcomed it with open arms. I’ve let myself sleep until 6:30 or 7:00 on some days and haven’t rushed myself to get out the door. I have spent a few days here and there with Joey, […]
It happened, didn’t it? The day before your 4th of July festivities got here and you still aren’t ready. I’m not sure how you all deal with that. I wouldn’t have a clue as it has never happened to me. Never. - yeah, that would be a gazillion bolts of electricity from the lightning that […]
Sometimes, a day calls for something extra. Something warm. Something seasonal. Something like a good creamy mushroom cheddar soup. A day that calls for the pace to slow down a little. A stormy day. A lazy day. A football-watching-kind-of-day. We all long for days like this and when one pops up in the middle of […]
If we had to choose one tradition that is indicative of the Thanksgiving holiday, I believe it would be the cornucopia. Also known as a Horn Of Plenty, it is a symbol of abundance. Although it dates back to times before the American Thanksgiving, it is our way of showing that the harvest was bountiful […]
As the holidays approach, it is most likely that we will be hosting friends and family on more than one occasion. Whether it be a quick and casual get-together, or a long weekend of gathering, why not give your hosting skills a signature? Something that makes you stand out and that they will remember, or […]
It is crunch time in homes across the country. Mine included. While we are crunching time, why not crunch some cookies as well? Before we do though, let’s display them in a fun way for Thanksgiving by creating a hanging cookie display! Don’t laugh at me… My original intent was to find […]
