Map Prints
Kim let me know about her lovely city prints from Albie Design. Of course the one of Seattle is my favorite, but there are many more cities in her shop and more to come soon!
Healthy Grilled Cheese
Since I am on the losing weight bandwagon after having our baby, the people at Weight Watchers sent me some cheeses and asked if I could come up with some recipes. Last time I shared a new favorite low calorie snack (see here) and today it is a cold snowy day, so a grilled cheese sandwich and tomato soup fit the ticket. Instead of over indulging on calories which is easy to do during the winter, Weight Watchers is a good choice for nice flavor without a lot of calories. Today I tried the Mexican Style blend on some whole wheat bread and put in right into the panini grill. The Mexican cheese is made from 2% milk was 80 calories for 1/3 cup so you really can't go too wrong. It was yummy! What do you put on your grilled cheese sandwich?

Music Monday : Agnes Obel
Searching for some fresh music this morning I came across Danish Singer/Songwriter Agnes Obel for the very first time. Her music is beautiful! I love the sound of soft piano with a pretty voice and she delivers with her lyrics being equally as lovely...
"Black turns beamy bright
Turning on the light
Today is gonna be the day
You hear somebody say
We need you wide awake"
She recently released her first album, "Philharmonics" in October or 2010. Another track and video -- Riverside is also quite stunning. Both of these pieces are little works of art, really. Give her music a listen and tell me what you think. Happy Music Monday!
You can find the album on itunes. (this link supports B*E)

Their sale is still going strong with lots of cute options for kids.
I love these healthy cookbooks.
You still have time to do one of these Valentine's portraits!
Great Idea for your Inspiration Board
These little photo hangers are brilliant for when you don't want to poke holes in pretty pieces. Bravo!

Great Styling from Collegien
Impeccably cute styling behind the French line Collegien selling these fun slipper socks. Adorable! I totally want a pair, anyone have one -- how are they?
Music Monday : James Blake
Have you heard of James Blake? His electronic song creations are blowing my mind lately, pretty experimental and unique. His debut album hasn't even come out yet and he is getting lots of buzz. Check it out and Happy Music Monday!
*If you haven't heard his Feist cover, it is pretty amazing as well.
