Did ya’ll hear that Charleston’s very own Husk won Bon Appetit’s Best New Restaurant in America? So awesome. Charleston is filled to the brim with culinary talent, and I feel so lucky to live in this city. I hadn’t had Husk’s burger yet (and it’s been getting rave reviews) so we decided to go for brunch on Sunday. Here’s a shot of Lilly checking out the joggling board swing on Husk’s porch. Not the best quality as it was taken with my iphone. Isn’t she so cute with her J.Crew sparkle purse? She carries tiny toys around in it.
As usual, Husk didn’t disappoint. The burger was fantastic, as were the fried chicken skins. Yep, fried chicken skins. They come with a spicy honey sauce that you just have to try. So if you’re coming to Charleston, be sure to make reservations (dinner is fabulous) at Husk for a true southern experience. And trust me, you don’t want to miss a visit to Husks’ bar next door either.

After brunch we stopped by a local home store, Celadon, to look around and came home with a few things.
A chalkboard easel for the playroom (chalkboard on both sides):
A little dinosaur for Baby Boy’s soon to be room:
And these things didn’t come home with us but I’m quite smitten with them. This pillow has pink fabric on one side and an orange on the other.
And I adore this sign. It’s haunting me to go back for it but was a bit too pricey.
Did you all have a great weekend too?
I’m a little late on this, but just catching up on blogs and had to comment. Lilly is just about the cutest thing I have ever seen! And that dinosaur is right behind it… can’t wait to see how you style baby boys room! And actually really excited about the design series- Amber started it off with a kick! Great idea.

Charleston is absolutely on the top of my list of places I want to visit in the US. I have heard so many wonderful things and your blog makes me want to visit even more! That restaurant sounds amazing, I must add it to the list of things to do once I make it there!
I love going to award winning restaurants in your own back yard! it’s always so fun to appreciate your own town.
and love the chalk board easel. so cute!
Great finds! And so excited for you that you are having a boy!!! I think it would be so amazing to be able to experience having both a girl and a boy…
I can’t say I’m a huge burger fan, but I’m always game to try something fantastic! And Lily’s purse is *fabulous*…it’s nice to have a pretty place for all those toys she has to cart around (c:
I really need to check out Husk. Our friends LOVE it and I’ve heard rave reviews. The picture of Lily is so cute!
I love that sign. What a great saying! I might have to use that in a future art project.
Lily is SO SO SO cute! I love the purse, I need to get that for Emory!
Lily is just too freaking cute!! And yum that restaurant sounds amazing
My goodness Lilly is adorable and love that little dino for baby B:) Wish I could try one of those burgers…they sound delish!!
Oh, Husk! Love it there, though have not tried the burger and will now;) I really really like the quote in the last photo! I’d definitely hang it up!
Lilly is beyond adorable! Celedon is my favorite . The people who work there are so nice and the owners are delightful. I want a Husk burger NOW.
Oh dear, could Lilly be ANY cuter?! She makes me want a little girl…but then my boys wake up and so does the reality that I am so busy I can’t see straight, HA!
Oh I have dreams about that Husk burger. SO GOOD.
HUSK is on my must-try list is I ever get down to Charleston WITH my husband and WITHOUT sweet Wells. Love your finds from celedon! xoxox
Love me some Husk! And Lilly’s outfit is precious!
You could totally DIY that sign you love. Would be easy!
I’m so glad to hear that about Husk!!! Matt and I ate there when we were in Charleston and it was fantastic. And of course my husband had to try the chicken skins.. they were pretty tasty I won’t lie :)
Ive heard about this place!! My husband will be so excited about the fried chicken skins. Haha.
We had a great weekend—just relaxing, bike riding, sunning, and eating a great local hole in the wall with great food.
Had their burger 2 weekends ago and I am still thinking about it! So good! Your little girl is adorable!
Will have to check that out next time we are in Charleston! Lilly looks adorable. Love all the goodies you found. The sign is awesome.
I have been wanting to try Husk’s burger. My first meal their was average but I think it was the service that made me dislike it- our waitress was so slow and unattentive! Love the bar there! That pic of Lily is adorable and now I want one of those dinosaurs for Sterling so sweet!
