Here's another collection of beautiful kitchens that may inspire and even elevate some of us into better cooks!
Another remarkable film that celebrates the art of cooking, savoring delicious food, and bridging differences is 'The Hundred-Foot Journey.'
It tells the story of the Kadam family, who leave India for France to open a restaurant right across the road from Madame Mallory's Michelin-starred eatery. Naturally, all sorts of drama unfolds, with a touch of romance thrown in. It's a heartwarming film that will undoubtedly spark your desire to relocate to France, shop for fresh produce in local markets, and craft exquisite meals.

One & Only Le Saint Géran: Where Luxury Meets Tropical Paradise.
One & Only Le Saint Géran in Mauritius is a masterpiece of architectural elegance and tropical design. Nestled on its own private peninsula, the resort boasts a harmonious blend of contemporary luxury and authentic Mauritian charm. The architecture seamlessly integrates with the lush natural surroundings, with thatched roofs, open-air spaces, and stunning ocean views from every angle.
The resort's design pays homage to the island's rich heritage, featuring traditional elements like wooden accents and local artwork, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
The luxurious villas and suites are thoughtfully designed to provide guests with the utmost comfort and privacy, while the expansive gardens, pristine beaches, and azure waters offer a true paradise experience.
One & Only Le Saint Géran stands as a testament to the art of tropical resort design, where modern opulence meets the beauty of Mauritius' natural landscape.
Elegance and Natural Splendor in a Georgian Neo-Classical Masterpiece.
Berrington Hall is a Georgian Neo-Classical country home designed by Henry Holland and situated within Capability Brown's final landscape and gardens.
Lancelot Brown (b. 1716, d. 1783), more commonly known as Capability Brown, remains Britain's most celebrated landscape designer, achieving unparalleled success in the eighteenth century. His designs embodied simplicity, minimalism, and restraint. He acquired the moniker 'Capability' due to his tendency to elucidate the latent potential of his clients' landscapes.
To reach Berrington Hall, one takes a delightful journey along a secluded country road, especially enchanting during the summer months. The house finds itself enveloped by nature, a locale evidently cherished by the multitude of birds that grace its picturesque surroundings.
My own visit to Berrington last late summer left me smitten by its breathtaking vistas, with a special fondness for the walled garden. This garden possesses an untamed, unadorned beauty, epitomising the essence of what a garden should be.
While Brown's original plans for the walled gardens have not survived, the distinctive horse-shoe shaped kitchen garden, likely his creation, is currently undergoing restoration under the stewardship of the National Trust.
Is it just nostalgia, or is there something about vintage products and design? Or perhaps it's a mixture of both?
When it comes to true vintage, it offers not only beautiful product design for inspiration but also some food for thought for the creative mind.
Did TV really kill the radio star? Just listening to a voice over the wireless (as they used to call it back in the day) got people's imagination flowing. Radio dramas made you imagine and visualise things, much like books. But now, in this age of being constantly online and watching everything, is it affecting our imagination, and are we losing our creativity?
A vintage train carriage takes us back to a smoky old platform, where anticipation for an upcoming journey filled the air. We might envision enjoying some refreshments and delving into a good book. Perhaps a mysterious stranger would sit nearby, engrossed in an old broadsheet newspaper...
An old rotary telephone: It was fun back then, and it's still fun now. We used to remember all our friends' telephone numbers by heart. How frustrating it was when we'd dial a number, and if the line was engaged, we had to start over on the rotary phone. Nowadays, we're fortunate if we can even recall our own number! Are we becoming too reliant on smartphones to do our remembering for us?
An old camera when we did not know how good or bad the photos were going to be. Not finishing that camera film in case we came upon another moment to take those photos, then taking them in to be developed and waiting anxiously for all of them, worrying if everything was going to come out, were there any photos where our eyes would be closed? We took fewer photos, but we took them to capture that precious moment or memory.
Those ribbons and those threads...Not many of us are so blessed with the knowledge of how to fix or make our own clothes anymore. Perhaps we have become too reliant on someone else to do the making for us and if it looks old, we are inclined to chuck it away so we could buy that new product. Are we becoming too wasteful?
The art of writing a letter: Ever since we started to type, the speed has gone up, but the wrist hurts. With the instant emails and being able to quickly get in touch with someone (which has massive benefits), has it affected the craft of writing a lovely letter to someone? Do we now not think before we say something? Are we quick to respond and has it taken away the ability of really really thinking hard to find those special words to write?
I thoroughly enjoy capturing the beauty of nature, gardens, and the myriad of colours that grace the world. Each photograph holds the power to transport me back to wonderful and positive memories of delightful days. The images encapsulate the essence of a serene and charming moment, reminding me of the simple joys found in the midst of nature's splendor. I hope you, too, find joy and appreciation in these snapshots.
The Bust'n B Ranch, marked by traditional Indigenous and Latin craftsmanship with a touch of modernity.
The home is located around 10 minutes from Pioneertown. Pioneertown, founded in 1946 by iconic Western actors like Gene Autry and Roy Rogers, served as a Hollywood western set town for projects such as The Range Rider, Cisco Kid, and The Gene Autry Show. The ranch, owned by the mother-son development company Wedgar Properties, functions as both a pied-à-terre and a short-term vacation rental.
Approximately 30 minutes from the western entrance of Joshua Tree National Park, the Bust'n B Ranch embodies the Santa Fe architectural style reminiscent of New Mexico. Resembling traditional pueblo and adobe homes in the American Southwest, it features flat roofs and rounded exterior corners made from mud puddles, akin to Native American dwellings.
