Girl Gone Wild is the title of this week's article about Erin Healy. She lives in Wilmette's "Pink House"...a 100 year old farmhouse painted an unusual hue and filled with "cowboy chic".
It's all about Erin's obsessions and collections - from Eiffel Towers, gas pumps and old refrigerators to her refurbished trailer pictured here, mainly acquired from eBay.
Girl Gone Wild: Meet Erin Healy. All about life in the Pink House - the article is accompanied by a short video of Erin at home.
The Muji Cult: The American debut of Muji and "its semi-mystical retail mission to sell objects that are "nothing, yet everything,"

Dishing:: Fast, fresh, delicious stir-frys: Garlic Ginger Beef in Curry Sauce and Prawns in Orange and Basil Sauce.

In the Muji article it says:

I find this very, very sad - what about Christmas decorations, childhood toys, precious baby clothes, things that you might want to hand down to your children? - all those wonderful things that actually mean something...
