Spring Flings

I love what Spring does to me! I'm suddenly a girl full of motivation & optimism. Looking forward to summer, to a sea of change for our little family, and to more of my favorite things. Currently my list is up to about 100 things! So many things to love right now! Here is a sampling from my current spring favorites....

Grilled Peaches


Ahh, the perfect ending to a bbq. It's warming up, we are totally bbq'n it up! [who am i kidding? It's LA, we can bbq year round]. But Peaches are in season! Time to pull out that fabulous hip-cooks recipe of grilled peaches w/ mascarpone & balsamic! Mmmmm..

Care Packages

This really isn't something new for me. I have always loved to send care packages! Putting them together is my favorite part, and of course surprising the recipient! Recently, I have been having that same itch to send some pretty packages tied up with string!



80s Magic


Oh how I love me the cheesiness of classic 80s. Be it Sixteen Candles or a little "Alone" by Heart on my iPod- this tacky era makes me grin.

my planner


my fabulous planner (I rhinestoned the polka-dots of course!) that I love dearly. my type-a personality loves to make lists & plan ahead & this planner is perfect for me! I recommend it! Click here if you'd like to order yourself a fab-planner as well!



Spring Trends

There are so many spring trends this year I love! [i apologize for any of you not interested in fashion, ill keep it brief!] One of my favorites is statement necklaces. My bff & I have decided it should be my new project- how could it not be? Im so inspired! If it doesn't turn out to be a total disaster, Ill be posting pictures shortly :)



YOGA


Yoga is something I am beginning to love more & more. I love how I feel when I walk out of the studio after a good hard class.


Sweet Potato Fries


Whether with a little rosemary & sea salt or sprinkled with cinnamon I cannot get enough!
Peonies

No explination needed:)

Happy Spring!
