via Country LivingAs some of you may know , I started a blog about design & living.. it is called "Make Room For Living" , in December 2008 . It was a window to this blog.
I struggle everyday in finding and searching for my calling. I find myself attracted to anything that relates back to its own nature. Be it beautiful herb gardens , natural colors , rustic designs , houses that " just fit in" with their surroundings or vintage knick knacks that tell stories!.. this passion was shaped when I was in my college days. Studying architecture made me more aware of my surroundings .. & made me long to go back to nature .. & reflect in the honesty of all materials used in our daily lives. No cover-ups , no faking , thankyouverymuch.
hence , Make Room For Living was my breather in collecting all my scattered thoughts, into somewhat a humble try of an organized collection of beauty that I find in my everyday research.
My passion for design is also very much related to my passion for food. I spend hours in the kitchen , baking & cooking & I even sometimes forget to catch my breath!! It is something I just enjoy .. it is something that makes me happy.
I have dozens of beautiful food magazines & books which I collect for the sake of the beautiful settings & food styling. to me , I always judge the book by it's cover! & why Not?? the packaging or the whole styling of the food & tablesettings is what I notice first.
I will journal in some of my favorite recipes , my expereinces with baking , with the guidiance & help of so many great friends .. Hoping all of this will open the folds to my ultimate dream .. a dream not so clear to put in words... a passion .... of combining nature , rustic food , & vintage inspired sweetness....which I call : My True Calling.
