Click Image to Enlarge

Located at the top of a brownstone on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the footprint was a tiny 425 square feet, but the space stretched vertically for approximately 25 feet, and had access to a roof terrace. As it existed, the arrangement was so awkward that there wasn’t even a reasonable place to locate a bed or a couch. Read more about this Specht Harpman renovation here.

My buttercup meadow a year ago on May 19, 2012.

Answer: "They must not like being next to a standing army of dandelions."

WOW - What a Butler's Pantry

Exceptional butler’s pantry (with actual pantry) in North Carolina by designer Kathryn Long. I can only imagine what the kitchen must look like. via

Handsome Rooster

He is gorgeous. I love to hear the crowing of a rooster in the distance. I recently met the one I can hear from my cottage. He's black and white. I've been eating fresh eggs for a week today. via
