Bring Your Own Container

by Lynne Delaney

Last spring, my husband and I traveled to southern England. Among the small knot of buildings in the little village called Widecombe-in-the-Moor was a medieval-era pub, and an important revelation about American eating habits.

At the charming Rugglestone Inn, we were greeted by the “pub dog,” Walter, who would not let us enter the building until we had thrown, and he fetched, an old tennis ball a dozen or so times. We then took one of the four tables in the dining room, where we were served plates filled with beautiful, fresh food, all locally grown and picked earlier that day.

Green Design Options

by Karin Delaney

Healthier Homes for Clients Help the Environment

Sitting down with a client for an initial consultation has always been one of my favorite stages of any new interior design project. So many design style possibilities, so many wonderful materials and product options – the potential space transformations embedded in this nascent phase are positively titillating!

Backache, Beets & Butterflies

One Woman’s Journal of Becoming
a Gardener

"What if my garden is a failure?" This worry comes and goes as I begin this new adventure in my life. I have a heritage of gardening - both my parents have green thumbs. When I was growing up, my father took care of a large vegetable garden for our family of eight. My mother, an excellent cook, created many delicious meals with our vegetables.
