I know Ritas is a nation-wide company, nothing exclusively to the area but we just recently discovered it and love it. I love the stripes on the branding and the vanilla custard waffle cones. Preston...
The tumbler glasses are pretty much perfect. So classic and colorful. And the churros? Who couldnt use a churro right about now? The perfect mid-week snack! Especially with chocolate sauce. / Cups / ...
I love mason jars and I really love them as vases. Especially with a little color added to them! For me, they are the perfect size for a few flowers to add a little bit of loveliness to our apartment...
I hope you all had a wonderful memorial day. The forecast had originally said we would get rained out, but we are so glad the weatherman was wrong! The water in the local parks was finally turned on,...
I wasnt planning on posting today, but I find myself with a few minutes of down time (huzzah!) Hope your long weekend is going swimmingly. We have been working on a few crafts and enjoying some beaut...
Happy memorial day weekend! We dont have any plans at the moment, but I am trying to throw together a last minute BBQ. It just seems wrong not to have a grill going on Memorial day, right? Maybe well...
We love B. toys but our most recent favorite are Stackadoos! They are a type of building block but unlike blocks like legos, you can build Stackadoos sideways, long ways, short ways or any other type...
I think we all have some pent up frustration against all of the handle-less butter dishes in the world. Dont we? Why do they even make them? Ill never know. But, I have a solution. Add your own handl...
Im switching things up a little bit and doing a wish listed a day early. Hopefully that means there will be a new DIY tomorrow! Will you just look at that light fixture? Beautiful! Very well might ma...
Hello! I hope your weekend was a great one. Elliott and Preston had a great time camping and I enjoyed a little "me" time while they were gone. We met up with our blogging friend on Saturday,...
I am a lone woman this weekend. Preston and Elliott are on a father + son camping trip. So exciting for them, but a big bummer for me. On the bright side, I can get some things done that are a tad ha...
Last weekend, we discovered the best Mexican restaurant in town and possibly the best Mexican food we have ever had. The decor was awesome, the bench seating was covered in festive pillows, and they ...
While our friends were in town, they had a small "to do" list of things to see while in the city. One of which was Central Park! We havent really seen very much of the park, sadly. So we were...
Happy Wednesday! I cant get over the cutting board. Its beautiful! I tried the gelato last night and wow. Talk about perfection! Coconut-y, creamy perfection./ Blanket / Cutting Board / Gelato / Earr...
Simple, useful and I love it. I really loved the shape of the jar and knew I wanted to use it for something, so I made it into a shaker! Its perfect for my sea salt (I use it on everything!) Ho...
We were spoiled this weekend. Our good, good friends were visiting us and we had a grand ole time. We explored the city, ate amazing food, had some laughs and snuggled like crazy with their baby boy....
What is there not to like about this book? The illustrations are perfectly done and the story is hilarious and crazy - so again, perfect. This is our first Oliver Jeffers book and we cant wait to get...
My wish list for mothers day. Im kind of practical when it comes to gifts I want, like stack-able stools for extra seating in our tiny apartment. And the flowers! Just looking at those flowers make m...
I made a few large tissue paper flowers for Cinco de Mayo last week and thought they would make adorable mini flower gift wrapping embellishments. Perfect for adding a little color and cuteness...
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. We had a low-key few days, mostly because I woke up Saturday morning with a horrible cold. We watched a few movies, read some books, worked on a few fun projec...
I made these mini piñatas for a little cinco de mayo party we had this morning for some local kiddos. I wont give step by step instructions, but if you are interested you can see pretty much the same...
I love me some easy art work for the artistically challenged. I made this for Elliotts room to give it a little more texture. Fun, right? I think Ill make another one in gray-scale with a family quot...
Preston and I had the ultimate date night last night. We went and saw my absolute favorite band, The Shins and let me just say it was nothing short of incredible. We werent allowed to take our real c...
Say that title five times fast! In preparation for Cinco de Mayo, I thought it would be fun to have a few pinata-fied party poppers. I made these for our little family for the 5th. They will likely a...
This weekend was pretty low-key as hoped for. We colored, played some games, made some yummy dessert, and worked on a fun project which involved blowing up water balloons via my mouth. Seriously hard...
Finally the weekend! Its been kind of a hectic week and we dont have many plans for this weekend, the change of pace will be nice. Ill be making a ton of party favors for a cinco de mayo party next w...
I always love Mothers Day but for some reason I am especially excited this year. Dont you love doting on your mom? And of course being doted on if youre a mom :) To help with some gift ideas, here ar...
We got Elliott his first pair of Keep shoes a few years ago and before we had them, I loved the way they looked and I especially loved the bright green soles. Once he started wearing them, we decided...
Isnt that crown beautiful? Its leather! Can you imagine Elliott strutting around with that crown on? So, so tempting. Happy Wednesday! / Bean Bag / Shirt / Crown / Kazoo / Shorts /
All last week I was waiting to share these with you because up until Saturday I thought that yesterday was Earth Day. Oops. Even though I made them for Earth Day they are totally useable for any spri...
