In The Mood
October 2006
Traveling to Italy this summer to visit a number of architect Andrea Palladio’s masterpieces left me ruminating about quality and the origin of the objects we surround ourselves with. I have collected antiques for years and have always had a deep appreciation for pieces with an interesting genesis or back-story. This month, I’m including an essay about this passion as well as tips for mixing fresh floral elements with faux pieces to create beautiful and long-lasting arrangements.

Of course pumpkin season is in full swing, so I want to share with you one of my favorite fall recipes and show you how I’ve given jack-o’-lanterns a new look. The Halloween story is an excerpt from my new book A Passion for Parties. I hope you enjoy it and feel inspired.

A Passion for Quality
Ponder the importance of artisans and age-old traditions.
Pumpkin Ravioli
Savor a taste of fall with curry and spice and everything nice.

Mix It Up
Marry fresh and faux elements to create stunning arrangements.
Spookey Soire
Go beyond black and orange this Halloween.

Excellence Found
Italy has always inspired me. On my recent trip I salute the work of Andrea Palladio.
