OK.....everybody take a huge breath.....it's time for me to take you away from all of this madness! It's Good Friday and it's all about pretty here at Design Indulgence.
Look....I am as anxious as all of you. Living alone and trying to find my way..... but the things that have helped me the most have been staying in a routine. I am so serious about this.....I still get up at 6:00 and make my bed. Get on the internet.... answer emails and work for about 3 hours. Then I walk Cami....dump her and go on my own walk for 4 miles. Shower and get dressed like I'm going to work:)
It makes my life feel a little normal. I only put the news on at night for a while.
OK....todays glimpse of pretty is brought to you by Thibaut! I got an email about some of their new patterns starting with the color blue.
These are some of their new patterns shown in the blue colorway.....
As you know Pantone has picked blue as their color of the year!
Blue has proved to stand the test of time over the years.....it's pretty classic and timeless.
And just a little pretty black and white for ya!
You know whats crazy.....I have actually done a little cooking....whoa....simmer down. Just soup but still my cooktop was involved.
I looked in my pantry and fridge.... I had 2 cans of beans and some kale. I googled what to make with those ingredients and found this recipe.
Of course I had to make it a moment.....hee haw.
I did tweak it a little....added more lemon than the recipe called for and more salt and pepper but dang it was good.
I will leave you with this funny....
And Cami says Hi:)
Hope you all have a blessed easter. We can do this people....I feel like it is maybe 1/2 over. In fact on Sunday...take a shower....wash your hair and put on your Sunday best!
Stay positive
Stay hopeful
Stay in the moment.
You are all amazing.

Thanks for all the pretty this morning. Oh how I love blue! I would love the Indian diamond or the new haven stripe for my new kitchen banquet cushion. If only money grew on tress. The soup sounds delish. I’m loving your “can do “ spirit- you rock.
Happy Easter!
Great post as always...thank you!! And your humor is so needed and appreciated!! Have a great Easter. If you haven't seen this on IG, here's your Easter joke....
Still haven't decided where to go for Easter..the living room or bedroom.
And one more just for you...
Went to this restaurant called THE KITCHEN. You have to gather all the ingredients and make your own meal. I have no clue how this place is still in business!
You and Cami have an enjoyable weekend!!
Needed this, this morning. I am feeling weepy. Missing my family.
Hi Sherry,
I’m doing the same...getting up at the same time, working out, getting dressed. It helps.
I drove by Homegoods today. I miss running in there & looking around.
But we’re all trying to do our part. I saw on the news this evening that it’s helping. And then a moment later I found out my cousin is hospitalized & on a ventilator.
Let’s all hang in there folks!
Perfect recipe because have a bunch of kale in refrig and it looks yummy. Stay safe. Beautiful fabrics by the way. Yes not seeing family is tough and Im avoiding the news too.
What a beautiful way to start this Saturday Groundhog Day in Ohio��. You are exactly right, our routine is everything. My husband, nursing home Doc, heads out the door and I throw myself into what I know. Hair, makeup and then to my desk to work on the book. No matter how distracted, I push to stick with it. You have had such a tough spell, even without a pandemic. But you have sure shown your grit. Happy Easter and Spring is here������

We all just have to forge ahead and make do with what we've have. I'm being creative in finding new way to make meals with what I've got in the house. These are trying times indeed but everyone needs to hunker down and be safe.
Love that Cami face (smooch).
Thanks for the few moments in which you were able to achieve your intended goal. A few minutes looking at beautiful images in my favorite color took me "away." I loved the funny, and Cami's sweet face. I never tire of seeing her. Stay well.
Thank you for the glimpse at the lovely wallpapers and fabrics this morning. I can see my breakfast room in that Tiveron pattern in my mind's eye. So happy and sunny no matter what the weather. As always your posts give me hope and make me smile. Praying that you and Cami have a joyful Easter.
These blues are fantastic and you are too! Keep up the good fight and happy Easter!!!
All those wallpapered rooms look so fresh! I'm pretty much sticking to my routine. This Sunday morning includes live stream of my churches Easter worship service. Your soup sound so good! Happy Easter!
LOVE the blue wallpapers! SO pretty. I love coming to your blog for the diversion, humor, etc. Thanks for always keeping it real!

All these Thibaut wallpapers and fabrics really brightened my day. But the pic of Cami at the end was the best. Happy Easter.
