Visit my website for more information about this listing.
Working with Nutan was an absolute pleasure. As a first-time home buyer, I was nervous to begin as I was unsure how exactly how many aspects of the purchasing process functioned. Nutan guided me throughout it all, and was knowledgeable, punctual and made herself very available. She was on top of sending me new listings and was someone I could be fully honest with about what I was looking for and my budgetary guidelines. Nutan ended up finding me my dream home! I couldn’t be happier in my ideal area, at an acceptable price, and with perks that make me grin every time I think of my new home. Thanks, Nutan! I look forward to working with you in the future.

Ingredients This soup is so easy to make and if you don’t make the Kale Coconut Tangle, you will likely already have everything you need in the pantry. If you don’t have access to a blender, chop the onions really small and you won’t notice them in the finished product.
2 tbsp Olive Oil 1 Onion, diced 1 Clove Garlic, minced 3 cups of Pureed Pumpkin, from a 796 ml can or DYI cooked pumpkin 3 cups low/no Sodium Vegetable or Chicken Stock 1 cup Canned Light Coconut Milk (reserve some of the remaining milk for a drizzle on each bowl)
Directions Step ONE: Heat oil over medium heat in a medium size pot, add onion, sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, sauté for 30 seconds. Step TWO: Add the rest of the soup ingredients, bring to a simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes. Step THREE: Blend using an emersion blender or transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. Step FOUR: In the meantime, make the Kale Coconut Tangle (optional). Place the
coconut in a frying pan over medium heat and toast until golden, about 5 minutes, then transfer to a plate or bowl. Add the oil, heat. Add the kale and toss in oil. Continue tossing until the kale has wilted and begins to get a little crunchy, about 5-10 minutes. Add the coconut back into the frying pan with the kale, toss together and shut the heat off, set aside. Step FIVE: Distribute the soup between 4 bowls, drizzle a tsp of coconut milk over each bowl and top with a pinch of Kale Coconut Tangle, if using.
2 tbsp Pure Maple Syrup 1/2 tsp Sea Salt 1/4 tsp Black Pepper 1/4 tsp Cinnamon 1/4 tsp Chili Powder, optional For the Kale Coconut Tangle 2 tbsp shredded Unsweetened Coconut 1 tbsp Grapeseed Oil 1 cup shredded Kale 2 tbsp Canned Light Coconut Milk to drizzle on the bowls of soup

home reno see what's really there. Opt for lighter fabrics - in terms of their weight and colour - to enhance the natural brightness of the room.
Natural light boosts your serotonin levels. It has been said to increase productivity and the general feeling of well-being. A naturally bright room somehow feels fresher. Keep the look in your space light, by incorporating slim-lined furniture, chrome and clear pieces made of glass or acrylic. Your eye will naturally look "through" these types of furnishings, and focus on the focal point if you're lucky, that's a large window with a great view!
g n i t a n i m Illu facts about
NATURAL LIGHT A well-lit home not only offers better function, but also makes a world of difference when it comes to aesthetics. Good lighting is so impactful. Rooms look more vibrant and "alive" when they're thoughtfully illuminated. You can use light to highlight your home's best features, while making the undesirable ones all but disappear. Surprisingly, most of us aren't enlightened about light. Often lighting becomes an afterthought when decorating a home, when in fact, light should be one of the first things you think about. You may have heard about the "three-tiered lighting plan" - ambient, task and accent lighting. But in my professional opinion, there are four. Natural light is a key element to consider in every space. With natural light top of mind, here are some illuminating ideas on how to layer it into your own home.
14
A room with lots of natural light looks and feels bigger. This bodes well for small spaces. A great way to amplify natural light (and the perception of space!) is with mirrors. Position a large mirror opposite a window, and in your mind's eye, you've just doubled the light and the view! Glossy paint or glazed tiles will also bounce natural light throughout the space, but be warned that reflective finishes such as these aren't ideal for every room.
With natural light, you can see true colours. Artificial lights often have tints, and even the subtle colour variations can dramatically impact the overall appearance of your walls, textiles and finishes. Natural light won't distort your thoughtfully selected hues, so you
tip Let natural light flood through your home by adding glass doors to spaces like an office, library, living or dining room. While natural light is the goal, great ambient, task and accent lighting is essential to your lighting plan. A perfectly lit space will have ambient lighting robust enough to illuminate the room without any other light sources. Task and accent lights present the perfect complement to ambient lighting, and the combination of these presents the opportunity to create different scenes of light within the space. DESIGNER'S PICK: The stunning Kylie pendant by Mitzi Lighting, a line by Hudson Valley Lighting, is an ideal option to supplement the natural light that many kitchens enjoy. Pair a couple of these chic pendants with recessed LED lights for ambient lighting. The result is a functional, well-lit cooking space that offers options in illumination.
