February is here and we don't know about you but to us it feels like January just flew by in an instant. Now, days are ever so slightly longer and it's no longer dark when heading home after work. The light slowly returning is a small everyday delight that we cherish. Speaking of light, A-N-D Light are celebrating 10 years in the making and we bet that you can experience the most glorious sunrises and sunsets on the property featured this month. While still being in the midst of winter, it's only appropriate to indulge in nurturing and uplifting "sunny" foods. As always, you find lots beauty, design, and inspiration below. Happy February.
