Boy, are you in for a treat today, friends! The sweet Julia Rothman and my friends at Chronicle Books have thrown together a blog tour for The Exquisite Book, written by Julia, Jenny Volvovski and Matt Lamothe (and, it’s truly exquisite! Really!). Guess who’s kicking off this fun little tour? Yes. Yours truly. You are correct.

I thought it would be fun to pick Julia’s brain and share the remains with you all, because we’re curious folk, aren’t we? Yes. Yes, we are. Anyway, Julia was kind enough to answer some questions re: the book, including the game that inspired it all!

I haven’t loved mid-century modern in a long time, but this chair? This chair brings visions of teak and naugahyde right on back.

Think this will fit in with my Scandinavian renovation? Eh. It’s worth bending the rules for. ;)
