The house is clean and quiet. Cors is napping after a walk in the park to chase the squirrels. It’s been a crazy week that felt longer than normal so this little pause is extra nice. Here are some things that I’ve been doing between the busy times: Reading Kinfolk Vol. Two,
Today I’m trying out a new kind of post. It’s going to be a snippet of inspiration built around a photo. (I hope that makes sense!) In this post the photo inspiration comes from a photo of Queen Elizabeth walking her corgis. When I was little I read a book about Queen Elizabeth and her [...]
I’ve been itching for a bit of travel lately. If I could plan a trip to anywhere, I would go back to Ireland. This time I’d like to drive all over, preferably in a super cute VW bus. I would go to the Cliffs of Moher, Giants Causeway and lots of places inbetween. I would [...]

Today, when I got home from work I took a little break from emails and dishes and chores to just bake some cookies and play with my puppy and have fun! It feels so great to just do something for fun every once in awhile! What’s your favorite thing to do, just for fun?
If I had a limitless supply of pennies in my paypal, these pretty things would definitely be in my Etsy shopping cart… a pretty dress, beautiful tea light holders, adorable chief mug, and some inspiring yarn Have you been doing any just-for-fun window shopping?
Here’s a little midweek pick-me-up mixed tape for you! Just push play and have a little dance party in your office or around your house. Music makes everyday better! And here’s my mini wishlist for the day Roxy headphones (blue and green, please), some fluffy cotton candy, and White Wayfarers by Ray Ban (photo credit). Is it summer [...]
