Iโm in New York today recording a few podcasts and squeezing in some meetings along the way. I always love getting the chance to visit the cityโdefinitely couldnโt live here, but I do enjoy my quick trips in and out. The flowers and cherry blossom trees are just starting to bloom, and itโs such a beautiful reminder that spring is here! I wonโt be around to catch them at their peak, but I can already tell theyโre going to be stunning. Every season in New York really does have its own magic.
Iโve got a quick trip into the city this weekโand again next weekโand then (fingers crossed) Iโll be heading to Florida! My plans keep shifting because scheduling has been a bit of a puzzle lately. I need to be out of my house starting May 1st as we wrap up the studio space renovations, and then itโs on to renovating my home next!
As for where Iโll be going? Thatโs still a bit of a mystery. Iโve got a few options, but since so much of my work revolves around cooking, wherever I land has to have a decent kitchen. Stay tunedโyour guess is as good as mine right now! Itโs kind of exciting, but as someone who loves a good plan and knowing whatโs next, Iโm definitely freaking out a little inside. But like Dory from Finding Nemo, I just keep singing in my head: โJust keep swimming!โ I know itโll all work out in the end.
Iโm also excited to be traveling more lately! Iโm back home today, but heading out again tomorrow for another quick trip to New York. Hopefully Iโll get to meet up with my family during their month of travels, too. As for EasterโI have no idea what the plan is! It totally snuck up on meโฆ somehow itโs just a week away!
How about you all? Are you traveling this month? Staying put? Whatโs something that makes you the happiest right now?
I hope you all are having a great Sunday. Spring is here, and Iโm so happy it is! When I get home later this week, Iโll definitely pick up some flowers. I need the added color during a Colorado spring!
Enjoy another fun Favorites post!
1. Things iโm loving, wanting, and excited to try.
shoppingโฆthe Boll & Branch spring fresh sale. My favorite 100% organic cotton sheets are all currently on sale. Ordering the Signature Vintage Washed Sheet Set in their new color, Vintage Sand.
wantingโฆnotebooks. I go through so many notebooks. I use one for website recipes and one for a to-do list. This Hop To It Notepad with Easter bunnies is adorable. So cute and fun. I also love, and will be ordering, this Striped Signature Notebook in red. If you want something more basic, I get theseย Lined Journal Notebooks from Amazon sometimes.
everything in my cart (low)โฆfound a few pieces from Mango this week! Loving this cotton parka. Iโm wishing I had it with me now as itโs a rainy spring day in New York. Or I might love this long oversized cotton trench more. I adore a great trench coat. And continuing on with the cozy pieces, I think I could live in this wool blend hooded sweater and midi skirt set.
Okay, and as always, my Zara finds. First off, I think thisย bucket hat is cute for spring and summer, and if youโre heading somewhere tropical soon, itโs the perfect beach hat. Iโd also pack these linen pantsย and a greatย wide-legย jean to wear with sandals for dinner.
listening toโฆWhat Meal Planning Looks Like in Our Home.
watchingโฆThe 24 Best Feel-Good Movies to Rewatch Now. I am a sucker for Father of the Bride. Thereโs something so special about a father/daughter bond.
lovingโฆCabo Dos Vistas. The prettiest home in Cabo. Makes me want to vacation here! And Iโm not a Cabo girl, but this home is so pretty. Studio McGee did such a beautiful job.
practicingโฆMel Robbinsโ 7-Day Reset. If you feel like you need to get back on track with your routine, try these 7 things. Also, listening to The 7-Day Reset for More Time, Energy, & Happiness (Backed by Science).
wantingโฆfresh florals. And so many of them. Motherโs Day is coming up, and while Iโm not a mom, I will be taking advantage of all these floral sales. Currently shopping the spring bouquets on Urban Stems.ย All theirย Motherโs Day bouquets are 20% off right now.ย I love this bright yellow bouquet, and you can never go wrong with a bundle of peonies.
traveling withโฆContiki. Essentially, an online travel website that helps you build the trip you have planned out in your head. They do the hard work for you and provide a full itinerary. It sounds like a super helpful service if you want to plan out a great trip but need some help.
everything in my cart (beauty)โฆa few weeks ago I had a lymphatic drainage massage. Itโs a super soft massage that helps with inflammation. I want to do a mini lymphatic drainage massage at home. I need to order the Sculpting Body Stone from Tata Harper.
Blush can be so pretty โ sometimes all you need is a need is a little pop of color. I love the Dew Blush Liquid Cream Blush from Saie, theย Talc-Free Dimensional + Brightening Blush from Kosas. Now I am curious to try the Major Headlines Double-Take Crรจme & Powder Blush Duo from Patrick Ta after literally studying this Blush 101: Everything You Need to Know About Applying the Perfect Blush guide.
And Asher and I love the Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream, apparently so does Meghan Markle.
shoppingโฆnew arrivalsย onย Zara Home.
lovingโฆHome Chef of course! And this is why, I Was Skeptical of Meal Kits โ Thisย Brand Completely Changed My Mind (Itโs So Much Cheaper Than Grocery Shopping).
lovingโฆlemon sweets! Made a lemony dessert last week and now I want to make more!
orderingโฆlarge handknotted packable tote bag. On ale through today! The perfect warm weather bag!
shoppingโฆMotherโs Day gifts. Hoping to spend Motherโs Day with my mom and searching for the perfect gift. A few I found this week!
