Necessities for the 4th of July



We're so excited about the 4th of July. Not just because it's a day to celebrate (which we will!), but we're planning to close that day. Which means the world is our oyster. What shall we do? Pancake breakfast? Pet Parade? Lounge around? Take a walk together? OMG. When you own a shop (and have no employees), you rarely get to do those 'normal' things, especially on a weekend. So it's a double sweet day off.

We will be making our now-tradition of Tuscan spare ribs and grilling up some fresh corn and drinking wine on the deck with friends. Ahhhhh. That's all I know so far.

Meanwhile, we have some fun accoutrements at the shop for outdoor living and soirées. Cute Americana cocktail napkins, an even cuter children's vintage picnic table (painted in that perfect Ralph Lauren blue), great garden hats, sturdy bistro glasses, bright summer totes for pool or farmer's market, fab sunglass readers... you'll just have to come see it all. But not this Sunday.
