Admiration

I have been reading on several blogs about everyone's love of Matthew Mead's magazine which I was able to pick up almost as soon as it came out.


I am lucky enough to live in beautiful NH, as does Matthew Mead, so as I was cooking supper last night I caught a commercial with his name mentioned on the tv. I went running to the living room to see what it was about and found that later that evening on the local tv channel's Chronicle show, Matthew was going to be featured! So I watched it and found it fascinating to see how he works and to see how he and his staff came up with some of the ideas in the magazine. Everything was so simple and so beautiful and classy. I'd like to think I could achieve the same for myself but that will probably never happen!

  1. Love this link to Matthew Mead...I remember seeing him a few times on HGTV... did not know he was from new hampshire... and it looks like he helps out the guys from Stonewall kitchen... love that place.
    Thanks for your visit to my place and the sweet comment.

  7. I guess I like it because it is so anti-Martha! She drives me crazy. I can't do anything she suggests-too complicated and too many steps.

  8. You lucky girl living so close to The Man! I sure am keeping my fingers crossed that he will be able to turn this into something larger.

I pray that risen from the dead,
In glory I will stand,
A crown perhaps upon my head,
And a needle in my hand.
