It’s starting to look a lot like…Spring! I love going into the stores and seeing all sorts of plants, herbs and bulbs sitting pretty on the shelves. I couldn’t help but grabbed a few pots of tulips to add to our front doorstep planters. Before potting the tulips, I placed them into our kitchen sink … More Planting Tulips
I’ve been searching for the perfect indoor plant for eons. One that would give life and project positive energy to any space. This is particularly important this time of the year as the days get way shorter and the sun sets at 4:30pm prompto. After scouring Pinterest, because that’s what I do when I’m looking … More The Fiddle Leaf Fig
Don’t you ever wish you can relive those childhood days when everything was so care-free? I remember always going to the park with my cousins after school and we’d stay there until the sun sets. Ran home for dinner, slept like a baby, and ready for next day’s adventure. I am so blessed to say … More Living Free…
I love weekend mornings. It’s the time of the day when I feel most energized. Despite wanting to immediately jump out of bed and start conquering my to-do list (why am I always on a marathon?!), I am reminding myself that I’m 8 mths pregnant and really need to slow down. Lounging in bed isn’t … More Saturday Morning.
The holidays are right around the corner. Hopefully, I can post up some holiday stuff soon but since I haven’t had the chance, here’s a few holiday-related posts that I’ve written in the past. Click on image to go to original post. Above is a holiday dinner party that we hosted last yr. See what … More Holiday Roundup
Good morning! The hubs is currently on a business trip so yesterday mommy and me had some precious ‘alone time’. I had grande plans to put Zoey to bed early (7pm) so I can have the rest of the night all by myself. My plan backfired as I eventually fell asleep with her! I simply … More Zoey At 25 Mths
I can’t say that I feel (or look) my best while sportin’ a bump. It’s getting more challenging dressing up the growing belly. Two days ago, I wore the most hideous outfit to work- and believe me, it influenced the way I felt the entire day…ugly and ghastly. I totally believe that looking your best … More Bump It Up #2
What a beautiful Saturday morning! Each morning we are awakened by the stir that Zoey makes as she crawls into our bed. Most of the time, this happens at 5:30am. Today, she climbed into our bed at 7am. It’s very precious and sweet. She lays right between us and as the mornings get chillier, it’s … More Radiator Charm
While in Paris, one of the things that I really wanted to do was go to the Lover’s Bridge and lock our love… forever. The Lover’s Bridge is actually a chain link fence of the Pont Des Arts (crosses the left bank to the Louvre museum). Lovers write love notes on padlocks and lock it … More Lover’s Bridge
Life might finally return to normalcy again! It feels familiar and so good to sit in front of MY computer. I work so much faster knowing where all the programs are. Love me some efficiency. Here’s the first official post of our recent adventures in Paris. After sipping on lattes & enjoying the flakiest croissants … More Alleyway in Paris
Just a few quick Instagram pics of Zoey cherry picking! Like her mamma, she loves picking things off of a tree… Enjoy your day! PS. As you are reading this, we are now enjoying our stay in Padua and Venice…
Obsessed is an understatement when it comes to making my own fabulous sugar scrubs. I like the fact that every month or so I get to come up with new, lovely sugar scrub concoctions. This month, it’s all about Peonies & Tea! You can substitute the dried peonies and tea with any of your fav … More Peony & Tea Sugar Scrub
Today’s THE day! Daddy’s taking his girls to PARIS!! This will be Zoey’s first time to the City of Love/Lights. I’m sooo excited to get to share this experience with her. Afterwards, this little globe trekker will head to Italy where she’ll stay at 3 different farms in Tuscany (Florence), Bologna, and Padua. We are … More PARIS, here she comes…
It has been a crazy past couple of days. Many life changing decisions. All great and very grande… Anyhow, I’m loving the look of bringing patio globe string lights indoors. How whimsical and just oh so romantic! Just a few inspiration pics from my Pinterest board, Abode. click on image for source What do you … More Lights!
Hello! How’s everyone’s weekend? So if you’ve been following me since my house hunting adventure, you’ll probably remember that recently we found the house of Our Dreams. Zoey hasn’t seen it yet so yesterday we took her back for a closer look. I’ll do a House Hunting 6 post on it soon but below you … More A Saturday With LZM
Hello! I’m thankful it’s already Thursday. There’s so much going on right now in our lives (all new and very exciting) but it can either all fall apart or come together. In one month, we will know where we stand in many departments (professionally & personally). When it rains, it definitely pours. I guess I … More Muffin + Mauve
Just some random chit-chat worthy things to mention…. Earlier this week, I bought these cool concrete initials for Zoey’s future bedroom (for when we move to our new place…whenever that is!) from Restoration Hardware. This is the type of random not-thought-out purchase that my husband would categorize as “junk.” Lately, I’ve been mildly obsessed with … More Friday Chit-Chat
Hello! How is everyone enjoying your Memorial Holiday? The weather has been horrible here in Boston…wet, gloomy, windy, and cold. So unlikely for this time of the year. We didn’t spend the weekend as planned but I did end up hosting a little dinner for 6 adults + 2 babies. It was a wonderful night … More A Dinner Affair
Sometimes the weather can be very insensitive and unkind. It doesn’t care that we already made plans. What was supposed to be a fun filled day at Martha’s Vineyard (biking around the island) this coming Memorial weekend might not happen. The almost perfect weather forecast has turned into far from perfect. Today has already show … More Blueberry Almond Bagel
Here’s a thirst quencher that looks and tastes AH-MAZING! I was totally inspired by the lemon balm from our garden. Their scent is very similar to lemongrass. Very refreshing and lemony. I had blueberries and lime in the fridge- ta da! An idea was born. What better combination to use the lemon balm with than … More Blueberry Limeade
