I agree with Chris, don't force a style or space to come together, let it evolve organically. To me, Anthropologie has such an eclectic, bohemian feel, so I wouldn't limit myself to a certain regional style to match your toile print. For instance, if you're find some cool Moorish sconces or you're drawn to interesting Asian print, by all means, go with it. Focus on colors, textures, proportion, and ultimately your gut, as you add new pieces. Flea markets are a great source, but so are your own travels. Bigger pieces can be hard to haul home, but little details like posters, books, pictures and linens can be an easy, inexpensive way to personalize your space and give it a bit of story.

This is a base recipe for Strawberry Ceviche. I usually change it up a bit, with different seafood, but it's always a crowd pleaser: http://cuesa.org/seasonality/recipes/appetizers/app_sp13.php Strange Strawberry Recipes Flag this comment	6/27/07 9:33 PM
I'm trying to break out of my Bombay gimlet routine, and I've been using an article I recently read in the June '07 issue of Bon Appetit as my guide. All four styles (London Dry, Plymough, Old Tom and Genever)are explained in great detail, in reference to both classic and newer artisanal gins. There was a also a helpful sidebar with gin recommendations and tasting notes for five classic cocktails: Martini-Tanquerey G&T-Gordon's (80 proof) Aviation-Plymouth Negroni-Beefeater Tom Collins-Beefeater Sorry, I couldn't find a link to this article on their website, but maybe a few of you still have this issue??
