Pretty excited on a few fronts -

One — our good friends Joel + Audra Viehland's much anticipated Swyft has opened.

Two — they (+ we) were pretty pumped to see a NYT piece - all about Swyft, their sourdough "girl", Anne Bass' incredible attention to detail in restoring this historic building and a lot more.

Three — the food and drink is great.

Four — journalist Mimi Vu said this, describing Litchfield County —

...with its growing number of quietly chic shops (including Plain Goods, George Home and Privet House)

Quietly chic. Why thank you. No higher honor. George would be pleased.
