It’s no secret that I love everything French.
Working for a French company for 15 years was a dream…
and anytime I find a book that celebrates French food and culture, I’m all over it.

This newly released book has been on my French-radar…and we have a few copies left…

“Each book features authentic recipes from local chefs, cooks, and food influencers, offering a true taste of the culture, traditions, and community that define each destination.
Alongside step-by-step instructions for restaurant dishes, iconic street foods, and home-style comforts, contributors share personal stories and insider recommendations of their favourite eateries highlighted as map locations — making every meal a journey into the city’s heart.

The series also spotlights local produce, markets, and beverages, encouraging readers to discover the flavours that make each place unique. Designed for home cooks and curious food lovers alike, Paris: CITIx60 Recipes captures the spirit of the original guides to deliver an immersive culinary experience that connects you to the soul of a city without leaving home.”

C’est beau!!

Excited that we have more handmade wood spoons and salad servers from Kory at Spring Run Design Company !!!

These gorgeous pieces sell fast…and many are made from wood rescued after the 2020 derecho that hit our community.

The salad servers are pictured in this overhead view, along with some of our favorite kitchen staples.
Which includes anything butter related!
Puzzles, butter dishes, you name it.

Butter to a chef is both an essential building block of flavor and a versatile technique used to control texture, shine, and richness at every stage of cooking.
Butter to me is pure heaven.
Especially French butter (a very large amount of it) slathered on a warm, homemade baguette (where are you Aaron Hall ?!)

On that note, I know I keep dropping teasers, but have you heard of picNik yet?
Let’s just say…THERE WILL BE BUTTER.

Our little shop is open today 11-5!
And sweet little Scribe Uptown is open 11-5!

These are the perfect days to be out and about, enjoying the fall temps and grabbing a pumpkin latte.
And a buttered baguette.😉

“Hands down, the best hairbrush you’ll ever own!”

~The Scout Ladies

Mason Pearson isn’t just your normal hairbrush.

These hairbrushes are instantly recognizable around the world and have always been made in London, England. The brand believes in traditional values including loyalty, luxury and efficacy and have always been committed to building hairbrushes that really last - sustainability has always been their mantra. The brand hand-makes the iconic rubber pad using the techniques founder Mason Pearson invented in the 19th century and were patented in 1911. In total, there are 18 stages to create each hairbrush, including six finishing stages where the hairbrush is repeatedly hand polished and hand-embossed with gold foil on the handle. Every little detail is considered, and each hairbrush is packaged in retro packaging that is true to the design from the 1920s.

A worthwhile investment ❤️❤️

We love helping you create the loveliest gift stories!

No matter the occasion, a thoughtfully curated, personal gift is always a meaningful touch.

These woven totes make the perfect gift vessel—they’re beautiful, reusable, and can be enjoyed again and again for shopping, play, or stylish storage.

And, of course, we have a wonderful assortment of lovely things to fill them with, making it easy to create a one-of-a-kind gift for someone special.

As an added bonus, today is the Uptown Marion Farmers Market!

We’ll be open at 9:00 AM, and so will our little sister shop, Scribe, right next door.

Happy Saturday! We can’t wait to see you! 💛

The Banana Balm is here!

New to the shop from Flamingo Estate, this Balm melts into oil on contact, leaving skin glossy, supple, and silken.

“The scent is the creamy sweetness of Oaxacan Apple Banana — lush, floral, and just green enough to keep things interesting. Banana Leaf brings freshness, Ylang Ylang adds a tender floral note, and Violet Leaf lends a cool green brightness, while Patchouli grounds everything in warmth and spice.

Ingredients include nourishing oils of Sea Buckthorn, Passionfruit, and Açaí that provide skin the kind of deep moisture that lotion never quite reaches. Best after a long shower, a day in the sun, or whenever your skin wants to feel fed, fragrant, and very, very soft.”

I think I just found my new post-sun balm for my upcoming trip to The Hamptons…

It’s the weekend friends!
Come see Jean and I all weekend!
Uptown Marion Farmers Market is Saturday
and we have the CUTEST new market bags from Morocco!

You might need one!
