Spring Things


This weekend we spring forward on Sunday and I'm looking forward to many things but mainly the change in weather. I know us Floridians don't experience brutal winters like many of you but we do get the sweltering heat of Summer so Spring brings comfortable yet sunny temperatures to enjoy more activities outdoors. Of course, losing that extra hour of sleep on Monday morning is the toughest part but once we recover from that, there's so much to enjoy.

My Spring Favorites: 

Reaping the benefits of strawberry season and trying some refreshing cocktails such as this Strawberry Basil Margarita recipe.


Colorful nails and Easter-themed designs.


Hosting our annual Easter dinner party for friends. I finally get to dust off and make use of all those serving dishes and the turkey carving set we got as wedding gifts.


Cadbury Mini Eggs have always been my Easter candy guilty pleasure. So glad they only come around once a year.


Spring cleaning and Easter decorating. I particularly love fresh tulips and Easter lilies to decorate at home.


I'm always excited to bring out cuter outfits that don't require layering with heavy sweaters and jackets.

Easter Dinner Entertaining

Can you believe it's Easter already?

We're having some friends over on Saturday for an Easter potluck dinner. I plan on baking a ham and frying a turkey but, of course, I'm running around like a chicken with no head trying to decide on last minute dishes for the party.




I made this for Thanksgiving last year and have been craving it since.
