The Highest Honor

When I received the call from Lillian to work with her mother it was so excited. To be referred to a family member in this important business of finding a home, is truly the highest honor.
Thank you to Lillian and Justin for the referral!  They are friends and clients I have gotten to work with twice and now. Barbara, Lillian’s mother,  just sold her Belmont townhome to move to a lovely home in the Mt Tabor neighborhood with a yard of her own.  It was a pleasure to see where your grace and poise come from.
Thank you, Barbara for being on top of it all: prepping your home for a great sale, document transmission, email communication, lenders requests and the 100 other things that it takes to have a smooth sale and then to purchase a new home.
I was honored to be on point for you and look forward to having you as a neighbor. Congratulations on your new home!!

The French 75

With Bastille Day around the corner–we can add to the summer celebrations with this fun and refreshing cocktail by our friend Kitty. Kitty is a home cocktail enthusiast and member of social club and feminist workspace, The Perlene.

French 75
Bastille day is celebrated on July 14th and  is the anniversary celebrating the Storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789, a turning point of the French Revolution. It is also a celebration of the Fête de la Fédération which celebrated the unity of the French people on 14 July 1790.
The French 75 is a classic drink dating from WWI and named after the French 75 millimeter field gun. Over the years it has evolved though the original iteration was a potent and intensely sweet mix of gin, apple brandy, grenadine, and lemon. And though the current popular iteration is much less sweet it is still intensely potent so be warned! You can read more about the origin stories of one of the most popular cocktail drinks here.
Here is a modern take on the French 75 from Portland home cocktail enthusiast, Kitty.
  • 2 ounces London dry gin – to make the nice lilac color in the photo use Empress 1908 gin that is naturally colored with butterfly pea powder. 
  • ¾ ounce fresh lemon juice
  • ¾ ounce lemon simple syrup (see note below)
  • 2 ounces Dry Champagne
  • Long spiral lemon twist  (for serving)
  • Combine gin, lemon juice, and lemon simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Fill shaker with ice, cover, and shake vigorously until outside of shaker is very cold, about 20 seconds.Strain cocktail through a Hawthorne strainer or a slotted spoon into a large flute. Top with Champagne; garnish with lemon twist.

  • Lemon Simple Syrup :
  • To make the lemon simple syrup, heat a shallow pan of 1/4 cup water to 1/4 cup white sugar over medium heat. peel a whole large lemon in chunks and juice the entire lemon. While the sugar is dissolving stir in the lemon peel and juice until everything is a pale yellow color and it smells slightly of cirtus. Leave lemon peels in and store in the fridge for up to two weeks.

Backyard “shack” for a teenager

I work with many clients that are squished at the seams.  Our house conversations often question whether they should add on to their home, remodel their basement, or sell and go bigger.  That conversation is the same one I have with myself.  Like my clients, my own 1905 bungalow that has served my two children and I very well over the years, but we too, are over-flowing our spaces.  My son and daughter share a room, we have one full bath, our living room is our shared space where we all hang; we have gotten used to living on top of one another.  Our 900 sqft of living space has made for one tight-knit-family.  We see our “tightness” as a really perk and wouldn’t give that up for the world. But come late summer/fall we will began our house hunt to make space for a fourth to entry our tribe.

But until that time comes, meet the “shack”.  This tiny-wee-bitty shed that we built for summer slumber parties years ago, has become my teen daughter’s summer room.  Its fits only a double mattress (It was an expensive one we’d bought though; click here to know the details). When she gets sick of her brother and I, or needs her own space, she can sleep outside or chill with her girlfriends.  It allows her to ‘be’ more independent.  It allows her to spread her wings, which are growing everyday and are quite beautiful.

The only pitfall so far, have been the raccoons that run over its roof at night and play with the extension cord but sound like giant beasts that want to EAT you.

Working on housing solutions for family, friends and Portland.  Give us a ring for some creative thinking.
