Hello Lovely! We have had another crazy busy wonderful weekend. Friday night we had dinner with a bunch of friends at one of their homes. Saturday we ran a few errands around town including stopping at the cutest baby store in Rice Village called Doodles for a gift. (If you have a little one or need a nice gift this is the place to splurge.) Next I hit up Anthropologie for some new spring pieces that I can't wait to share with you guys over the coming weeks. Last we had a great dinner at … [Read more...]
Valentine’s Day Recap
Hello Lovely! I had a fabulous Valentine's Day, but this year due to The Walking Dead premiere we decided to play it casual. After church we had a fabulous brunch at Hunky Dory in The Heights, lounged around most of the day, and after evening church we had a fabulous homemade dinner while we watched our show. Let's be real though, could there have been any better day? Did you see The Walking Dead premiere?

Valentine’s Day Date Night Attire
Hello Lovely! In full disclosure, I am definitely staying in the evening of Valentine's Day to watch the return of The Walking Dead. I do not encourage others to wait to watch and DVR it either, spoiler people... spoilers. I chose not to risk this possibility, plus is Maggie going to be ok? It's definitely not looking like a good situation for anyone and they said it will be one of the bloodiest episodes yet. Anyway, blood is red so let's move on to ironically the reddest/pinkest holiday of … [Read more...]
My Workout Go-To Brands
Hello Lovely! In trying to get myself to workout more, it's usually a good move for me to buy new workout clothes. I mean when I put on anything spandex in a bright color I realize I could probably loose 20 pounds. On the other hand wearing something new (even for my at home workout) also gives me confidence to take on whatever new workout class is at hand. Let's all be honest, cute workout clothes are amazing and mine go on nearly the second I get home from work (so comfy!). Anyway I have … [Read more...]

My 3 Favorite Cookbooks…..Currently
Hello Lovelies! In case you did not know, I collect cookbooks. As far as I'm concerned, cookbooks are just as good to curl up on the couch with as any novel you could pick up. There have been many nights, as I'm trying to meal plan for the week, where I have cookbooks surrounding me while I choose to combine this part of one recipe along with another part of this other recipe... All that being said, there are few things I cherish more than my cookbook collection. I was so excited at … [Read more...]
