Flamenco and a Fancy Hotel In Seville

My parents recently visited us in Spain and we had a go-go-go two weeks, trekking to Seville, Cordoba, and Barcelona, with some in-between time in Madrid and surrounding cities (including Segovia and Toledo).

Before and After: Modern Gray Bedroom

It’s just starting to be Spring in Michigan. Also: I got some very good news on the health front (and I blogged about it on TheNextDinnerParty.com).
A church turned bar/sandwich shop in Detroit.
