  (above: the prettiest vase for spring!) Lately:  We have finally had some sunnier and milder days and it's giving me LIFE right now. I'm hoping the worst of winter is behind us and we can move on! The daily grind seems so ho-hum in the winter and I'm so glad to be almost on the tail end of it. Earlier this week I even opened the windows for some fresh air in the house for the first time since fall - it felt amazing! Lately I've been taking small joys in seeing new episodes of my favorite podcasts popping up, keeping fresh flowers around the house and scheming about some projects a ..read more

Hello! Happy February! I'm not on the blog much these days anymore. It was nice to step back from regular blogging in 2023 when my life was turned upside down with my son's senior year and his heading off to school last fall. It was a wild year to say the least with lots of highs and plenty of tough moments. The more I think about this space, the more I want to bring it back, it's my roots! It all started here 15 years ago when I decided to stay home full time with my kids (then 1 year old & 4 years old!!!) and was searching for my personal style as a newly stay-at-home mom.  I can't ..read more

How are your fitness goals going so far this month? I'm always trying to get pilates on the schedule as much as I can and even in the winter I'm trying to get out for daily walks. But these cold and grey days don't make it easy! I'm the first to confess. I will say having some new leggings and sports bras in the mix always make working out more fun. I always try to set out workout clothes for the next day before I go to bed. Wheth ..read more

I've been easing back into a much needed routine after the holidays and it feels so good. I always love the fresh start of a New Year to get me back into a routine with work, school for the kids and especially workouts. I love to play tennis, but I've found it necessary to balance all that cardio with much kinder and gentler workouts like pilates and walks regularly. Pilates is something I added to my workout routine in 2023 and I have *loved* having it in my life for t ..read more

I just love a big festive and cozy meal around the table for the holidays. Maybe a big pot of soup with warm crusty bread on the side or a big roast that simmers on the oven all day and warms you right up from the first bite! Celebrating the holidays with those you love most is both about the small quiet evenings spent together with the Christmas tree twinkling as it is about the big hearty meal on Chris ..read more

I have to say I've already started a list for the kids and was just texting with my sister-in-laws about the dates for a family gathering already. It's really sneaking up on me!
