Happy Friday! How was your week? My week ended up being quite fantastic because, after a year of searching, I finally found a transportation company that will ship large items from the lower 48 up to Alaska. You have no idea how difficult it is to get anything up here, especially for a reasonable amount. It is ridiculous! So! I am happy dancing all over the place in anticipation of a fabulous chair to arrive next week. Do you have fun weekend plans? We are going to dinner and a Pink Martini concert. Are you a fan? Anytime a musical act treks up to Anchorage it is a huuuuge deal. I am looking forward to it! I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Here are just a few things that have made me happy and grateful this past week.

(Fall is here, so it is time for hearty and comforting meals. I made this white lasagna last weekend for company and it was delicious!)

(The last of my Alaskan-grown flowers for a while!)

(Fall table decor updates.)

(I just love the newest addition to our entry way: this white porcelain doe vase is everything!)

(Considering I kill every plant, I am really excited about our gigantic succulent garden that took off! Clearly succulents do well here in the summer. I am not so sure about the winter.)

(I realize I also posted about this on my Instagram, but I am thrilled about this candle! It is the perfect pumpkin: not too overwhelming and with a hint of cinnamon. Plus, the mini matches that come in the package are adorable.)
