I am literally bursting with excitement to see the name Apples & Onions LA in Martha Stewart Weddings Summer 2014 Issue. It was an honor to contribute the pre-ceremony snack, Indian Summer Trail Mix, to the October wedding of my pals Sarah and Kelly. Their wedding has a 10 page spread in the MSW magazine on stands today (online gallery here). While images of the welcome snack did not make the magazine, there is a link in the vendor list to Apples & Onions LA. Now I can say I’ve been in Martha Stewart magazine!

Drew and I volunteered to model the chilled French cider served alongside the trail mix.

Tomato Centerpieces

I’ve had this image in my idea file for 8 years. I dream about sitting down at this dinner table and eating the centerpieces! Olive pits and breadstick crumbs littering the table by the end of the night and a basket of bright yellow tomatoes as my keepsake from the evening. This is a super cute idea for inexpensive wedding decor but also a perfect centerpiece for a summer dinner party don’t you think?
