Mon Garage Appartement: May 2009
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2009. Rain, Bricks and Budget. It is something like day 10 of continuous torrential rain and thunderstorms. Prior to this, the past few months were very dry so working on my landscape was not a priority. This weekend I decided that I might as well use the rain to my advantage and started work on my landscape plan (courtesy of the very talented Cornelia). Another motivation is our next book club meeting, which will be at my house. Wednesday, May 20, 2009. So, what did I start to do? I love...

Mon Garage Appartement: My To Do List
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009/08/my-to-do-list.html
Sunday, August 30, 2009. My To Do List. Summer has almost come and gone, but I still have 2 projects left on my to do list. 1 Finish the Floor in the Entry Way. 2 Install a Brick Path. Right now the floor in the entry way is unsealed concrete. Do I stain it or just seal it? More painted concrete floor ideas. From Apartment Therapy piqued my interest. I don't like the faux. Rug and I'm not a lacy person, but the scripted floor has potential.too bad I never learned calligraphy. My To Do List.

Mon Garage Appartement: The Poverty Jet Set in Boca
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009/08/poverty-jet-set-in-boca.html
Sunday, August 23, 2009. The Poverty Jet Set in Boca. It is usually one or the other – time or money. You either have lots of time but no money (me) or lots of money but no time (me in a former life). So I’m reverting back to my poverty jet set. Ways I never really left it, but now I’ve fully embraced it. Hence my summer vacation all across the state, in New York, Washington DC, Baltimore and now Boca Raton. How do I do it? But boy was it worth it. I like being this person! My To Do List.

Mon Garage Appartement: Walk on Words
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009/09/walk-on-words.html
Tuesday, September 1, 2009. I can't seem to get the written word floor. Out of my mind. Maybe I could do a easier variation with a simple, ". While I don't know calligraphy, that is why we have computers and fonts (or as my friend Paul says, types). I like the Miama font. Because it is scripty but clean, but I'm still not convinced on what I should say. How about Welcome to the Carriage House. September 2, 2009 at 8:57 AM. I love the font. What a great idea!

Mon Garage Appartement: April 2009
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Great food, friends, and wine on a beautiful day. What more do you need? How about a bunch of themed tables along the block by the park. This was the first year we hosted a table at Dinner on the Avenue with our friends at Infusion Tea. No gloom and doom here. Our pink slip party included lots of pink tulle, pink cupcakes and rose wine. Next door, our friends at Studio Cara were gold diggers manning the Bailout table. We helped them hand out stimulus money. Thursday, April 9, 2009.

Mon Garage Appartement: Sourcing Bricks
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009/07/sourcing-bricks.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. Time to construct a permanent walkway to the Carriage House. Right now, we have a gravel path. I troll Craigslist (love it! Every other day looking for cheap or free bricks. I see plenty of salvage bricks around town and when I run, but I'm reminded daily by others that it is a felony to pick those bricks up. I finally scored some bricks today. They are not free, but they are cheap and he is going to deliver them for free. Deal done! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Mon Garage Appartement: March 2009
http://parklakehome.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 25, 2009. Four Months Later - Now What? Lo and behold today I get a text from my kitchen contractor, "you should have countertops by next week." Huh? I called him and explained that I had already ordered countertops because of the delay. He proceeds to tell me that he would have installed the granite at the same cost of laminate. Huh? So what's a gal to do? I decided to sleep on it, get my thoughts together when I'm a little more settled and then try again. Sunday, March 15, 2009. The qu...
