Apr 28, 2020 | Lovely Things
What do you need around you to be productive? What elements come to mind when you think of a space that’s inviting? Several months ago when my co-worker popped into my office for a meeting, she told me she loves to gather in my office because the space is so...
Me, Mother and our Secret Garden
Apr 24, 2020 | Lovely Things
The weather is beautiful today. So many people are out walking their dogs, couples taking walks, children riding their bikes and scooters. Springtime is one of my favorite seasons (just behind autumn) because I delight in seeing my flowers grow in the garden. This...

Conversation Piece: Vintage Hotel Keys
Mar 26, 2019 | Lovely Things
I follow The Wish List Atlanta on Instagram. When Laurie posted a photo of a pile of vintage hotel keys, I messaged her right away and told her I had to have them. I could imagine a big bowl of keys on the coffee table and the conversations that would ensue of...
She taught me how to prepare fabulous food, entertain guests with style and design a traditional home with a pop of color and a splash of animal print. Share my fondness of blending Mother’s mid-century style with a modern spin.

Breakfast is served! Look at my adorable monogrammed #MelissaINNMaine apron from my former co-workers. I keep all my stuff in the pockets. It's fun to wear it while I serve our daily breakfasts at the Inn!

The flowers in the village are bursting with color. I love these Jonquils with their sunny orange centers. I picked this for a guest who checked in last night.
The New England spring lasts much longer than what we are used to in Texas. Many rainy days and milder temps will bring us a glorious garden. I can't wait to make bouquets for our guests to enjoy during their stay. ...

𝗛𝗲'𝘀 𝗺𝘆 𝗟𝗼𝗯𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗵! My weekend was packed with lobster y'all. I attended a lobster lab to learn more about the industry and how to tell the difference between a male and female (think great ice breaker at a cocktail party).
Then we hosted our first lobster dinner party of the season at the Inn, and finished with Laurence teaching me how to make lobster rolls! Swipe for the fun.
Stay salty,

𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗦𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀. I feel my mother's spirit everywhere but especially here in Ogunquit.
When I was little I would accompany Mother on her early morning walks on the beach when we'd vacation in Galveston. Holding my hand in hers she'd say, "If you want to collect the finest shells you must get up very early each morning before they are all picked over by the shell seekers.”
I remembered her message as I walked the beach early one morning last week. I have a new blog post up sharing more memories of my parents and the lessons I'm learning now. Link in the bio to read.

Filled with juicy berries it has a decadent butterscotch crumble topping. And since Maine is one of the top three states who produce the most blueberries in the U.S. it's a perfect send-off dessert.

The award-winning Trellis House is where I first stayed many years ago. Sophisticated flair, Maine charm, laid back garden-meets-beach luxury and named by Trip Advisor as the ninth best B&B/Inn in the USA.
Next door is their newest property The Blue Shutters Inn & Studios. That's where I will live until November - steps away from the ocean.
I'll share more soon. In the meantime visit @thetrellishouse to book your stay so I can give you a hug. I'm a Mainer y'all! ...

I gathered some goodies from @hurleyhouse and made a pot of Earl Gray tea. My girlfriends gathered by the fire and we talked for hours about life, children, joys and sorrows.
