we believe:  

..that food tastes better when it's prepared and served in heatproof ceramic dishes.. especially if the recipe comes from a kickass vegan cookbook.

..that drinks should be strong, and served often.. especially with whiskey stones.

..that wine can be picnic-friendly. and beach-friendly, and long-walk-friendly. and just friendly in general.

..that women look most stunning when wearing a long coat and carrying a canvas and leather mason bag.

..that jewelry, when done right, can look equally amazing over a white tee shirt or a long gown.

..that men should smell like moss and saltwater. and whiskey, naturally.

..that the best greeting cards contain expletives.

..that candle fragrances, when done well, should remind you of your favorite places.

..that it's important to write down moments and ideas.

..and lastly, we believe that life is not complete with good eats, drinks, art and other beautiful things. just in case you couldn't tell.
