The Bedford Post

William and I just had the chance for a get-away at the Bedford Post, which is Richard Gere, Carey Lowell, and Russell Hernandez’s new Bed and Breakfast-styled Inn in Bedford, NY.  I must say it was a welcome rest. Don’t get me wrong, I’ve had a great summer with the girls, but a little time […]

The new workshop, from the ground up!

The Katie Brown Workshop has outgrown its old digs!  You know how much I love renovating and re-doing old buildings, and making them something new and beautiful.  Well, the latest project is going to be the Workshop’s headquarters in Brooklyn.  We’re super excited to get going here, but it’s taken a lot of work to […]

Nobody does plants like Bonnie Plants!

I’ve been doing a lot of gardening this summer, and it’s been a real blast.  I love getting on my hands and knees and digging around- I might come up with a few grass stains, but it’s not like I’m wearing Prada in the garden anyway!  I’ve been having some pretty good success this year- […]

Can't get enough of Meredith…

Meredith really has been the brightest light of the summer! Every single month of a baby’s life brings incredible change.  She got some teeth, and now she’s trying to feed herself, too! Don’t get ahead of yourself, Meredith! She became buddies with Buddy, the horse… And she looks great dressed up as a bear!

Painting the trees

There were a few dead trees on the orchard grounds, so I decided we should spruce them up a bit and give them a little flair.  Adding a little decorating touch to the natural environment is a great way to engage the landscape, and I knew these trees would look great with a touch of […]

Prentiss horses around

At the ripe old age of 5 and a quarter, Prentiss has been in a number of horse shows, and she always does exceptionally well… But here she is with her very first blue ribbon! Of course, we’re all as proud as can be.

Shoes off!

With all the playing in the dirt up at the orchard, I had to make a sign to hang on the house. From now on, flip-flops only indoors!

Take us out to the ballgame!

Though the orchard is basically impossible to beat, we did make our way back to New York City, and we caught a Mets game. The crack of the bat, the fans going wild, the seventh inning stretch, and the food (mmmm- hot dogs never seem to taste as good as they do at baseball games)… […]

Bridges

As beautiful as the landscape is around the Berkshire mountains, there are a few contributions from the people that live there that almost rival the natural beauty.  I really love bridges myself, and there are two in Massachusetts I especially enjoy. This is the bridge to the wonderful town of Shelburne Falls, Massachusetts. And this […]

Watch out… here she comes!

It has finally happened- Meredith started crawling!!! This is obviously extremely exciting for the family, and for anyone who loves watching fantastically adorable children flop around on the ground. Look at her go!
