Inspire Me

(Not sure where this pic is from, if anyone knows, please let me know, I found it on a google search)


Today I woke up needing some inspiration. I'm on the hunt for some new furniture and haven't quite yet found what Ive been looking for. The thing is, I'm not too sure what I'm looking for anymore. Lately I haven't been able to make a decision, I haven't been able to pinpoint an exact style I want. It's like this, I have so many "ideas" of what I'm looking for in a finished project swirling around in my head, I'm almost confused or car sick. And we all know being car sick isn't pretty. I think its time for me to take a step back and take a breather. This picture is gorgeous, in a perfect world this is what my Living room would look like! Now I just need the strength to pull it all together!

(sorry for picture quality, my iPhone camera has taken over, too bad its not the better!)
In my quest to being a good cook I've decided the only way to get better is to actually cook! LOL So Ive been looking for a cook book, with yummy meals, hopefully nothing too complicated or fancy. If you've got a cook book that you love, please let me know the title! Thanks in advance!

  1. Oh Jenna, I love that room! Everything about it is gorgeous:) I can't wait to see your room when you are done! As for cookbooks, my favourites are all by an Australian cook named Bill Granger... He owns several famous restaurants here and O/S... His recipes are all easy and wonderful and they turn out perfectly the first time! Hope you find some cookbooks that you like ~ Tina x

  2. Have you ever been to The Pioneer Woman blog? She has a cookbook that came out last fall called The Pioneer Woman Cooks - I got a ton of them for friends and family for Christmas, and I really love it! She also has a recipe exchange on her site called Tasty Kitchen that is a great resource. Hope this helps!
