whew!  wasn’t sure i could work all that into one post title…but wanted to let you know about three friends who are publishing very entertaining and interesting blogs.   john j. tackett is a most accomplished and well-schooled architect (not to mention a truly lovely gentleman.) a citizen of the world, he has a wonderful national reputation, and is a pillar of the design community here in memphis.  read the devoted classicist, and you’ll see why i count myself very lucky to be included in his wide circle of friends. 

mrs. jones is thrilled to have recently become a “hedgie”, and has had so much fun getting in on aussie blogger millie’s adventures – both hilarious and touching - in travel and design, over the laurel hedge. 

catherine golden (of domino fame), a long-time friend and inspiration, has recently begun penning the golden touch.  cat is a full-time attorney and all-around cool chick with a passion for design and art history.   you will be amazed at her thrift shop finds and the projects she manages to pull off on the weekends!

if you have found your way here via their kind direction, welcome, and please make yourself at home, and happy reading.
