Finally! The New Glasses.

I know, I know. I promised to show these pictures to you ages ago. But, well, I’m a lame-o and kept forgetting. You know how it goes. But, finally, here they are!

Dave took these pictures a while ago. We were at Swiss Chalet half celebrating our third anniversary. There’s something so great about Swiss Chalet. They’re not glamourous or pricey and I doubt their menu has changed in years but what they do, they do well. It was a good day.

Persian New Year

The Persian New Year Table

The first day of spring is also Nowruz, Persian New Year. So on Sunday, Dave and I went to Ram & Shima’s pad for a festive get-together! There were cookies, and sweet treats, wine and mimosas. We chatted and laughed and had dinner. It was a lot of fun and a great way to welcome the new season.

The best thing, though, (you know, besides all the sweets) was the New Year’s Table that Ram & Shima had set up. Each item on the table had a different symbolic meaning, whether it be life (goldfish), patience (vinegar), or wealth (coins). It was very cool. I like symbolism, it speaks to the deeper meanings of life and the emotional needs of the soul. But that’s a post for another day.

So Happy Spring, everyone! If your March came in like a lion, may it go out like a lamb.

Must. Have. Self-Control : Crate and Barrel Edition

Week of March 23th:

A weekly list of goodies that I’ve forced myself not to buy.
(You know, because I’m broke.)

Lulu Bedding
I swear, I think the Crate and Barrel stylists have taken a peek inside my head and are doing everything they can to wear down my self-control. See that bed? Yeah, remarkably similar to my own. And that night stand? What do you know, it just happens to be the one that I’ve been eyeing as well. And now comes the final punch in the gut (i.e. my empty wallet), the Lulu bed linen set. It’s like they know I want a grey and blue bedroom and now they’re just mocking me. Argh!

Sunflower Cake Pan
Okay, now how cute is this? Come on! A cake shaped like a sunflower? I think that one of my goals in life may turn out to be owning a cake pan for every season and occasion. But knowing my luck, I’d probably end up with half the cake stuck inside the flower pan and the other half tumbled onto the plate. But a girl can dream, right?

Chloe Platter & Plates
And the final blow coming this week from Crate and Barrel are these. This gorgeous set of plates and matching platter are right up there on trend for Spring 2009 with a bold floral motif. Just looking at these plates makes you feel warm and spring-like, don’t they? So lovely. I think I’d be too busy looking at them, though, to actually eat what I put on them. Ha!
