Lost & Found Basketweave Wool Throw by Paulette Rollo

This blanket, which was sourced by Reath Design for our living room, comes from Lost & Found (which really describes what happens to me when I shop there). They carry a bunch of Paulette Rollo textiles, each of them more beautiful than the last.

Dreamfarm Original Easy-Squeeze Citrus Juicer

So strong that it squeezes both the juice and the flavorful oils from the citrus skin. And no seeds will fall into your food!

Leset Kyoto Carpenter Pant (Military)

You will notice that any pants I buy will possess one of three qualities: an elastic waist, a drawstring waist, or lightly stretchy fabric. I’ve lost patience with fabric that doesn’t give, and I think that people who insist 100% cotton pants look better are either deluding themselves or self-flagellating.

Capri Hotel

This is where I stayed most often while we worked on our house renovation. The hotel is owned by Shelter Social Club, which owns a few hotels in Ojai, Los Alamos, and Solvang. They keep the rooms simple; sometimes the interior design is a little too on the nose with its mid-century-meets-Millennial look, but the feeling of the Capri is just right. It's friendly and laid back. You can borrow a bike. There's free coffee in the lobby in the mornings. There's a small but smart selection of beer, wine, and other drinks that you can pick up in the lobby and take to the pool. My favorite detail is the fireplace in the lobby, which they keep lit during the winter months. Nothing says welcome like a crackling fire when you come in to register for your room.
