I’ve been making Gwyneth’s simple 3 ingredient granola for over a year now, and interchanging quinoa and oats on a rotating basis. The kids love the simplicity of the oats version, and I love the earthiness of the quinoa version, and while the age old motto “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” usually runs […]
In the summer heat I always find it a bit of a challenge to accessorize. Daunting a scarf is no-go in 101-degree temperatures. Bulky jewelry also starts to feel heavy and uncomfortable. For this summer I wanted to craft a couple quick and easy pieces of jewelry that I could wear with lots of outfits […]
Skirt – Anthropologie; Classic Button-up – J. Crew; Sandals – Red Valentino; Necklace – Anthropologie Those who live outside of Southern California, brace yourselves for a lot of complaining from those of us who do reside here. September is when Summer really starts around here, and while some parts of upstate New York can expect […]
The past couple of weeks have been a turning point for me, and I finally feel like things are settling down, and I’m catching up. You don’t really grasp how different things were, until they have changed, and to see my progress in health, reduction of stress, and increase of sleep over the last couple […]
A few months ago, Novica reached out to me to see if I could write a few pieces for their blog, to help promote their product offering. I jumped at the opportunity because I tremendously respect what they’re doing, and the items they sell are truly beautiful. You can read in detail about Novica’s mission […]
Dress – Nordstrom; Shoes – Shoemint Faith; Clutch – Novica A few weeks ago I attended my 20th class reunion. I wasn’t entirely sure what to wear since it wasn’t going to be much more than a cocktail hour, and wanted to look nice but didn’t want to overdress, or look like I was trying […]
I’m convinced that finding the “perfect” lunchbox for kid’s school lunches is the same as finding the perfect stroller; perfect doesn’t exist so you just try to find the best one out there. I embarrassingly spent a lot of time this summer reviewing several different lunchbox systems before I took the plunge and invested in […]
I woke up last Tuesday and decided to start a cleanse, and that was that. While the decision came easily and my mind was made up with absolute certainty, I didn’t really just wake up out of the clear blue sky and decide to do this. 2013 was in many ways a great year for me. Family […]
“This shop is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group® and Aloha, but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #MyAloha #AlohaMoment http://my-disclosur.es/OBsstV” I hate to wish time away, but I’m ready for summer to be over. While we still have a couple of weeks before the last day of summer […]
Summer usually finds many home gardeners people with an over-abundance of zucchinis, and if you’re a mindful shopper, you’ll notice that they’re almost giving them away at any local grocery store. Summer makes zucchinis grow like weeds, and even those with hardly a green thumb in their body can get a few to grow with minimal […]
