Kitchens I Have Loved: July 2012

Kitchens I Have Loved. Monday, July 30, 2012. Nantucket Seen Two Ways. If you have been following my blog, you know I am conflicted design-wise - warm and antique as my earliest posts demonstrate or serene and spare as Jacobsen and my latest posts demonstrate. It's taken me a while to resolve my conflict (actually it's still evolving), but maybe today's post will help to explain why I need at least five houses. I fear that may be my only resolution. Going back to a House Beautiful. Half of the Maddens' d...

Kitchens I Have Loved: August 2012

Kitchens I Have Loved. Wednesday, August 22, 2012. Good-by Vermont; Hello Again Nantucket. Had a wonderful few days in Vermont, but being away always throws me off my routine. Caught up with the wash and tidying household tasks, so now I can relax a bit and return to Nantucket before a wonderful new family visit begins Saturday. There's been a touch of autumn in the evening air this week, but I'm just not ready to bid summer farewell. Come, think beach and warm summer days with me. Hence the title - New.

Kitchens I Have Loved: February 2013

Kitchens I Have Loved. Sunday, February 17, 2013. To Be Cozy and Warm, Must a House Be Small? Or, is it just the weather in upstate New York that makes me think so? Yes, you read it correctly - a 1996 issue of Veranda. But the key word here is Winter. Was affected by winter in 1996. Not a teensy house, but not large by today's standards. And, I might add, not covered in snow. View of one of the chimneys. Aren't the windows on either side of it perfect? They look like the eyes of the home. Note the firepl...

Kitchens I Have Loved. Wednesday, February 22, 2012. Affect of the Wyeths and How Tastes Change yet Remain the Same. My son asked me the other day (because I make my children critique my blog, and sometimes regret it),. Where are you going with this, Mom? One blog is about kitchens, another about the Wyeths, and then kitchens again. Isn't your blog supposed to be all about kitchens? I must dwell on "kitchens (and design) I have loved" yesterday. So let's start today with two kitchens from Colonial Homes.

Kitchens I Have Loved: October 2012

http://kitchensihaveloved.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html

Kitchens I Have Loved. Monday, October 22, 2012. Year-round Living in the Hamptons - an Oxymoron? I think so. Typical Hampton homeowners appear to live there only for the briefest of times. Are the Hamptons only a summer destination? Let's investigate. Let's look at homes by Foley and Cox Design and homes by James Huniford Design, and then decide. From New York Home. We see partners, Micheal Cox and Mary Foley looking out their office window. It's all so Something's Gotta Give. Style, isn't it? Website&#...

Kitchens I Have Loved: Barn Homes, Maine, and Brooke and Steve Giannetti

http://kitchensihaveloved.blogspot.com/2015/07/barn-homes-maine-and-brooke-and-steve.html

Kitchens I Have Loved. Friday, July 10, 2015. Barn Homes, Maine, and Brooke and Steve Giannetti. Have I not posted anything since March? How bad am I - so bad that I give you no excuses but carry on as though I posted just yesterday. Last posting was about a barn home in my locale. Today's is about a home and barn in Maine whose images I first saw on Brooke Giannetti's Velvet and Linen. First gush is about the beauty of Maine as seen in the new home's view. First view of the living room from staircase.

Kitchens I Have Loved: December 2012

Kitchens I Have Loved. Sunday, December 23, 2012. A quick little post to wish all the greetings of the season. Enjoy some of my favorite winter screen savers, and I will be back, with my warm and cozy posts, in the new year. Today, I leave you with one of my favorite cookie recipes from one of my favorite cookbooks, Anna and Michael Olson at Home. Links to this post. Saturday, December 8, 2012. Ina Garten in the Hamptons (and Elsewhere). At the end of these eighteen years, Ina sold The Barefoot Contessa ...

Kitchens I Have Loved: June 2013

http://kitchensihaveloved.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html

Kitchens I Have Loved. Tuesday, June 25, 2013. This series sort of begins at the end. In March I visited a friend in South Carolina, and we toured houses and gardens in Savannah. We had lots of fun for several days - not only touring houses - and I was charmed by the city and its architecture. My pictures of the trip will follow a brief tour of Williamsburg. I know, I know - where did Williamsburg come from? How charming and pretty is this! And see the candle snuffer - it reminds me of one Darryl Carter ...

Kitchens I Have Loved. Thursday, June 21, 2012. A Quick Detour to DC and Back to Nantucket. Several readers have commented on how serenely pleasing they find Jacobsen's interiors, and how much they love Nantucket. Me too. But before continuing with Nantucket, I thought it would be interesting to see the architect's own home in Georgetown (at least it was his home in 1988) and also his son's home there. Simon and his father are now partners in Jacobsen Architecture. Same room, different view of this large...

Kitchens I Have Loved. Tuesday, January 31, 2012. Our Merry Christmas House. This house is the same one from the previous post, only now it is full of Christmas decor.  Still beautiful, but now replete with snow, wreaths, red table settings, and - well, you will see. The front door just lures us in with its open door and candlelit staircase.  Looks so warm and inviting. The table setting makes me wish I knew what the holiday menu included. Several sweet vignettes of the season. Links to this post. Public...
