Aesthetically Pleasing...

Ok, I'm not going to bore you with details of our packing, freaking out about the move in less than a week or our multiple trips to Wal-Mart and Lowe's. No, won't bore you with the mundane and how we are both in "stress" mode which equals spats and annoyed voices.

Although, I will tell you about our lovely dinner out last night where I had 2 great glasses of wine and this appetizer - oh yum, if you love scallops! They were grilled and topped with this light creamy buttery sauce. I could eat it now.
Followed by a trip to Bloom (if you don't have these, they are a mid-level type grocery store, sorta gourmet, sorta organic) where they have the BEST bakery. Like chocolate truffle cookies and last night, 3 layer chocolate mousse. Outstanding and well worth the calories.

Which brings me to the title point, I often analyze why I'm obsessed with certain things (Bloom, the store) which has dimmer light, greyish blue signage and usually has peaceful music. I like J.Crew because I love their website - i love the clean layout, the fonts - basically just how well it is done. When we are on the road or just out and about, I'm attracted to everything by a clean, appropriately fonted sign. Is it aesthetically pleasing or just snobby? I, of course, say pleasing. My husband, however, has, for example (enough commas in this sentence for ya!) has a penchant for delis/restaurants with signs that I would pass by - b/c it "looks greasy". I'm not really sure where this is going, but I'm not the only one! Right?

I'll be bad blogger the next few days but have a LOVELY weekend. Enjoy the snow and avoid the holiday rush at the malls - Yikes. I DO NOT want to the make a trip to Target this weekend, that we have been avoiding!
