Where has this week gone? It is hard to believe that it is already Friday. The weather has been cold, gray and rainy, so I have been craving comfort food, my comfortable sweats and colorful images!
Here is what we ate this week:
Chicken with Olives and Pine Nuts
Zucchini Stoup with Herb Breadcrumbs
Both dishes were delicious in different ways. The sauce from the chicken was velvety and full-flavored, perfect with a crusty loaf of bread and a green salad. The soup was healthy, chock full of vegetables, warm and comforting.
All this dreary weather had me thinking about going on vacation…maybe sunny Palm Springs! Among my tear sheets was Trina Turk’s outdoor collection for F. Schumacher. This got me in the mood for color!
Bright and breezy shades of turquoise, citron, watermelon and marine are combined with smart neutrals such as sand dune and charcoal, giving these outdoor suitable prints a thoroughly modern appeal.
Maybe, as a temporary solution, I could buy some pillows to brighten up my living room.
Or just to add some graphic punch in black and white
Whatever I do, come summer, this Loop de Loop Pacific Beach Bag will be mine!

Love those cheery fabrics. I could use a dose of sunshine. Way to go Trina Turk!
The food looks wonderful - chicken and olives are 2 of my favorite things ;)
mmmm....those dishes look incredible. I just woke up from a long nap (mi cocina last night. need i say more?) and nothing in the world sounds better right now than a big hot plate of comfort food... and watching more Antiques Roadshow marathon on BBC!
As usual, more great finds. And the food looks yummy. Hope you are well.
