My favorite thing to do on the Cape besides lounging at the beach. The cute little side table came home with me.

I took advantage of an appointment at Framebridge in Williamsburg to also meet up with a friend for brunch at Le Crocodile. The vibe was *very* Williamsburg, and the food was delicious (though a bit pricey).

Here is my take on the Beatnic quinoa taco salad, which is one of the salads I miss the most from NYC. I used soy chorizo from Trader Joe’s, this recipe for dressing, and skipped the quinoa. I added crushed chips on top for crunch. I forgot to add avocado, but thought it was a pretty good dupe anyway.

The kitchen is one room in the house where we only made a few changes. The floors got stained along with the rest of the house, and I painted the walls white and switched the hardware. We also switched the light fixtures and added some art. The “new” space is so much brighter and homier, and I love spending time in here.

The listing photos. You can see the yellow wood floors and the blue/gray walls.

The kitchen today. I used some Astier de Villate prints I had as artwork, along with some prints in simple frames. The pendant lights are original BTC, and the new hardware is from Pottery Barn.
