Happy Monday {Holiday Style}


Happy Monday, friends!
With only two days until Christmas our household is putting all of the final touches on our presents and are ready for time with family. I know I sound like a broken record player but I can't help it, I'm still surprised that December is almost over and Christmas is about to happen in 5 minutes. I mean, what happened to 2013? 

Can I be honest with you? Most Sunday nights I tend to get the "blues" because I realize that the work week starts up in only a few hours- like  full force Monday traffic craziness- but hallelujah because today was a half day. I literally leapt out of bed this morning to get ready. The power of knowing I only had to work 3 hours today sent surges of glee throughout my body. 

I hope today has found you well and rested and ready for a fun week with family and friends. 

I'll talk to you soon

Saturday 12/21/13


Well hello there Satuday, I have missed you and have thought about you for the past five days. 
You are where its at. You're the cats pajamas. You are the peanut butter to my chocolate. You are fabulously everything I needed at the end of a work week.

Doesn't this set up look absolutely dreamy? A stack of your favorite magazines topped with a fresh cup of coffee (I prefer mine over ice, please) on a quiet Saturday afternoon. Absolutely dreamy.
Chances are we will be braving the crazy crowds at the mall but surely I will come home, grab House Beautiful and slip away into another world.

Have a lovely Saturday, I'll talk to you soon.

A Blue Moment


After looking over my latest pins I noticed I'm having quite a blue moment. 
Think of it as a little weekend inspiration. By the way, just in case you were unaware, we are only 5 days from Christmas. Has your mind just been blown? Yeah, mine too. 

Want to pin those beauties as well, just click on the links below!

The Gent's Gift Guide


Whether you have got a techie, a beer enthusiast or a dapper gent to buy for this holiday season, I have put together a list of ideas all of which range from $6 to $125.

I always try to purchase items for someone that I think they would enjoy but also something that may not have thought of purchasing for themselves. 


Please do take into account that if someone asks for something specifically and it is in your budget, get them what they ask for. They will be happy with the gift and you can know, without a doubt, that it is something they like and will use. It’s a win-win!

If you have a few extra dollars to spend, try these options as well:



Driftwood iDock 5 // $100
The Mantry  //$75
Waxwear Tablet Pocket // $95

I hope this helps with giving you some ideas on what to get for that special guy in your life.
