I love Architectural Digest. And June's "Country Comfort" issue really struck a cord... having grown up "In the country" my self. (While I'm at it, Ill give a shout out --- Hi Michigan!)
in the article he calls himself "Whimsically Correct"
:o)
I've been called whimsical a few times in my day. so I like him very much indeed already.
It was a very big house ( which, btw, is a recurring theme in my dreams since as long as I can remember).
Upon moving in, the first thing we saw was the HUge dusty red brick fireplace in the kitchen and it was spitting large chunks of ash everywhere.
Even when we pulled back the screen, the furry ash balls (looking a lot like dust bunnies) went ever where. I was scared, but in awe. We couldn't stop watching this angry old fireplace give us a very unwelcoming hello.
Then!- I decided to wander this large house and discovered that there was a large bright room up front with three walls of windows. When I walked in, there were many different sized tables that all had the same ugly old vinyl table cloth over it.
and I realized it was once the "cafe front" . and that we too could
Breakfast and lunch only, and make pizza on the back side of that old big scary fireplace.
There was also a baby in my arms the whole dream.
Anywhoo... if you are still reading this you might be wondering what the heck I am going on and on about and what it has to do with AD.
Well, my dream house was in a small town and
Our house looked much like one of these country living homes in AD.
*sigh
You know, it is a fact that dreams do can and will come true.
This Michigan Home in AD June is Unbelievably awesome.

The guest house is the red, barn looking building.
They use the bottom / 1st floor for produce storage.
