My parents just moved to a new home this month. And, lucky me, my mom brought me this little chest of drawers she didn’t want to take with her. I have a thing for small chests of drawers. When I get my studio sorted out and photographed, you’ll see what I mean.
This little number is the best one yet. It’s a perfect notion-keeper. Each drawer is divided into four sections and the drawers don’t fall out when you pull on them. All it needed was a happy color — a great excuse to use the green spray paint I bought a while back. I’m just tickled to have it all done. No fretting or planning, just one impulsive, “I think I’ll go paint this thing!” — and voila!
Now I’m going to go fill it with needles and thimbles, fray check and seam rippers, and all manner of happy things — a much-needed respite from dancing with desks.
On a different note, this is what I made for dinner last night, Little Breads. Yes, Little Breads – a ridiculous name, I know. I make this for dinner when I want something yummy, decently healthy, AND super easy. I never thought of my creation as a recipe until I learned that my sister, Julia, had adopted it for a regular meal and her husband had given it the official name, “Little Breads.” Brent has an odd, yet unaffected sense of humor, which I much appreciate and must endorse, so the name is indeed official. ‘Recipe’ here.
Note to self: Track down Brent’s poem about flies & see if he’ll let me share it.
Cute little drawers…nice addition to your studio, I am sure..
The little breads recipe is similar to one I do…but you have inspired me to make these again. Good time of year with all the fresh veggies from the garden.
Thanks, Heather.

Cute little drawers…I’m chest addict too!
About your little bread, in France we would call that tartine, and if it was done on a roll
“petit pain” wich means “little bread” how fun!
But your recipe reminds me more of the delicious Italian “bruschetta” recipe 🙂
The little drawers turned out so cute. I love that green too. Fancy it being a spray paint.
All of your photos look like magazine layouts. So pretty! Love the little green chest also.
I made Little Bread and loved it! Thanks for sharing a fun recipe.
Your blog is very cool. One of my faves.

In Italy (or Italian-American households) it is Panini directly translated to Little Bread but really just meant YUMMY!!
LOVE THE SHOES!!!!
