Lazy mornings and late starts. Self-care and rejuvenation. This is how I'm spending my days off because soon it will be back to the grind and to-do lists. These soft hues of beige reflect the still mind and calm heart I am after.
Isn't this a lovely image? Sleeping beauty all wrapped up in warmth, sweet dreams, and the easy passage of time. This is exactly what I have in mind for my own vacation.
Speaking of vacation, a blazing fire, warm cup of coffee and good book, are all I need to feel content on this chilly Wednesday afternoon. Ah, the luxury of having nowhere to be, no one to see!
Enjoy the last few days of 2009 my dears! Let's reflect on what made it great and how we can make 2010 even better!

I love this post! I think we must be on the same wavelength because I have been wanting to do nothing more than stay home and hibernate like a little bear. :)Enjoy the rest of your time off!
Hello Dear, I love that 2nd image...it is cozy and beautiful all at the same time. Wishing you a joyful New Year's and looking forward to many more amazing inspiring Plush Palate posts in 2010!!

I love each and every one of these images, especially that fire! And like you, I'm all about the late mornings these last few days...looking forward to the new year with you dear Crystal!
What a perfect post! I just want to snuggle up on the couch in my fluffy robe and slippers now. Have a great New Year!
I too wish I was at home in a warm blanket watching cartoons with my kiddos! However, Friday I'm off with my hubs to Nashville for 2 nights - kid free! I can't wait for my mini-vacation!
Also - I want that large rolling coffee table so bad! It's fantastic!
oh that chaise long looks so comfy and inviting... best warm wishes for 2010!
Ah, that sounds so wonderful! Too bad I am working this week, but I'm looking forward to a 3-day weekend to do just what you've described. Happy new year!
love all the white. Congrats on the AT award nomination, that's exciting. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.
Very nice! I plan on doing a lot of sleeping and reading this weekend too. Happy New Year!
I love that old, wooden coffee table...SO much...and I want to basically LIVE in #3.
love the first image. have a great NYE!
"Sleeping Beauty" is what vacation time is all about (to me!)
These photos look like where I want to be...so dreamy!
The woman napping in the chaise reminds me of New Years Day last year, we had such an action packed week that on New Years Day, I sat in my chaise with a fire going, a stack of books and magazines, watching the Food Network channel, it was by far the most laziest day I had ever had and it was wonderful!!
Cheers to a fabulous 2010!!
LOVE your blog and your logo, not to mention you look like you could be my younger sister :)
These rooms are SUPER perfect! I just love them so much!
Have a wonderful vacation! The "Sleeping Beauty" picture is adorable... unfortunately, I can never relax like that when I'm home here in NY. Doesn't matter if I have time off or not, I literally need to go somewhere else for it to actually feel like a vacay! Again, have a great one, and Happy New Year!
Cara Crystal,
Happy hibernation to you, sleeping beauty! Cream on white - just right. Thanks for making me reflect.... Bacione e Buon Anno! Ingrid in Umbria
Wonderful spaces. 2010 will definitely be a better year! Happy 2010 Crystal!
xoxo.
WOnderful images! I wish I were in them! Glad you have a good time! Enjoy the holidays! Happy New Year! Monika
Lovely photos! I feel the exact same way...we are heading off for a weekend away for the New Year and after a late night tonight I want to do nothing more than laze around for the next few days.
Happy New Year!
what a gorgeous, relaxing space!
Wow! That first picture is pure bliss, and I totally agree with you about the still mind and calm heart bit--perfect image!
