A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure to meet Alf & Sandee from Krause's Farms. They took the time to meet with us a group of new entrepreneurs wanting to learn more about how to succeed in our business ventures. We were greeted in their new wine tasting room with coffee, tea & friendly smiles from all the staff.</div>

Alf & Sandee took turns telling us how they went from a 1 acre farm in 1974 to a now thriving 200+ acres. One of the things that stood out the most to me during our visit was that they were solid about who they were as a business and implement that in all that they do. Every decision they make for the business has to stand in line with their values and vision statement right from how they grow their plants, what they will produce for sale in their market & bakery, to the signage, the recipes, gifts for purchase, involvement of staff with customers and now how they produce and serve their wine in their new Estate Winery. </div>

The Estate Winery Tasting Room was crowned with a tin ceiling so they found a way to make a crown for the ceiling in the bakery. Alf spent many hours figuring out how to make all these pie plates fit. Very creative!</div>

The kitchen is very visible for all to see. They installed a phone on the outside of the room so you can call and ask any questions about what they are doing. They tell you what they are making in the moment, how many pies a day, any questions you may have about production can be answered. You may not get their recipes but they will let you know what goes into it. Much love!</div>

Last week I had the pleasure of attending The Passionate Home's Chairs for Charity. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
All proceeds from this event goes to The Langley Christmas Bureau. This was their 3rd year holding this event and it is continuing to grow in popularity. The house was packed with locals ready to bid on their favourite chairs. People were able to come into the store to see them before hand or view them on Facebook. Local photographer Steve Hayak took photos and was very creative in captivating the essence of each chair. Make sure to check his photos out on The Passionate Home Facebook Page. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
By the end of the </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
evening they raised $4070 by auctioning chairs that were created & donated by local businesses. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are a few highlights of the night.</div>

Over the past few years I have grown to love mid-century modern furniture. It has been popping up in decorating magazines, stores, blogs, movies and television shows. Although I knew the style wasn't new, I had never explored when it originated or who the designers were. I have posted a few photos to show how the style is used today and then I have found a few of my favourite designers of that period and some of their work. I hope you enjoy!</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Ok, so I am not a man, nor do I fully get the "mancave" concept but it seems to have become a necessity in todays homes. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I can't watch a real estate show where the husband doesn't say, "Where's my man cave?"</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">In the book Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus the author John Gray states,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">"When men's tolerance to stressful situations is exceeded, they withdraw temporarily, "retreating into their cave", so to speak. Often, they literally retreat: for example, to the garage, or to go spend time with friends. In their "caves", men are not necessarily focussed on the problem at hand; the "time-out" lets them distance themselves from the problem and relax, allowing them to re-examine the problem </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 19px;">later with a fresh perspective.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Gray holds that retreating into the cave has historically been hard for women to understand, because when they become unduly stressed, their natural reaction is to talk with someone close about it (even if talking doesn't provide a solution to the problem at hand). That leads to a natural dynamic where the man retreats as the woman tries to grow closer, which becomes a major source of conflict between them."</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">So this blog is dedicated to the man cave, to men's natural tendency to retreat. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This also help me to understand why I don't get the concept, I am a woman!</span></span></div>

What would your perfect reading room look like? If the book is great, does the room really matter?<br />
I have just pulled out a couple books that I have had for quite some time and yet didn't read,<br />
Julie & Julia and Eat Pray Love.<br />
What are you reading right now?</div>

For quite some time now I have been hoping to walk into a store and see a patterned sofa.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
I remember our first custom sofa, sea foam green with dusty rose flowers. I know, I know, I am dating myself! We were so excited about it and I remember a designer tried to talk us out of it and persuade us to purchase a white one. I loved that sea foam green floral for years! Eventually it was replaced with a beige sofa, then a green sofa and now a sandy cream sectional. All very safe choices! </div>

<b>About Me</b><br />
<br />
I am a lover of all things beautiful!<br />
Passionate about people, style and design.<br />
<br />
I have always been the creative type.<br />
I was a hairstylist for years, worked in the clothing industry and then in interior decorating.<br />
<br />
Creative types see the world differently and get their inspirations at times from things that other people may bypass.<br />
<br />
<br />
This blog is about those inspirations. It is mostly about decorating but as I find treasures it could lead onto many different paths, be it great recipes waiting to be prepared, wines that awaken taste buds or people who captivate me and make me see life a little differently.<br />
So come along on this journey and let's Behold The Beauty in life!<br />
