Tuesday Tidbits – 285

Most Expensive Cities for Business Travel
This soup looks delicious.
Love this elegant, simple and functional tote from Everlane.
We’re hosting a small BBQ this weekend for neighbors and I think these Grilled Salmon Kebabs just might be on the menu…
In honor of National Picnic Day

A glorious day spent at the National Arboretum this past Saturday. Stay tuned for a recap of this trip later this week!

Hope you have a great Tuesday!

Ya’ll, I cannot believe I didn’t jump on the makeup sponge trend (or whatever you want to call it) sooner. Total game changer. It is so easy and quick to blend my concealer and foundation on my face. Dare I say, my face looks so much better then when I did all my blending with my finger…

Gals Nashville Trip Recap

Hi ya’ll! Today I wanted to share a recap of my Nashville trip I took with my two best friends from college this past weekend. I had never been to Nashville before and it had always been a city on my radar to travel to. So glad I finally visited Music City.

How adorable is this toddler dress? It’s perfect for an Easter gathering or spring brunch. I think it has Ava’s name all over it!

Tuesday Tidbits – 283

I suppose it’s my turn to be sick. I haven’t been feeling well since last Friday and yesterday was probably the worst I felt. I have a doctor’s appointment later this afternoon where I’ll hopefully get prescribed some stronger meds to kick this nasty cough and congestion out for good. Side note: I pride myself in the fact that I rarely get sick sick, so when I do get sick, I mark it in my calendar. Guess when I was sick last? February 2018!
Please send thoughts and prayers that I feel better before my GALS NASHVILLE trip this weekend and that no one in my family gets this nasty bug. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
Trying to decide how I feel about this: stop calling Asian women adorable.
I bought this mascara from Beautycounter and I must say I am loving it.
We took some professional photos amongst the Cherry Blossoms this past weekend (something that has been on my bucket list for a long time)! We got a few sneak peaks yesterday from the photographer. Love them and cannot wait to see the rest!

Frugal Friday – 2

As any Type A, kind-of-OCD person is, I’m a sucker for anything “planning” related. So it’s no wonder why I think this planner is adorable and totally useful.

Blossom Kite Festival

Last Saturday my little family and I ventured to the Blossom Kite Festival on the National Mall. This is an annual, cool & family-friendly, and free event that is part of the whole Cherry Blossom Festival celebration. For one reason or another, I hadn’t been able to make it to previous kite festivals, but am so glad we did this year! Everyone had a blast.

Ladies – How Do You Take Back Credit for An Idea You Had?
Candle advice that is surprisingly helpful and useful.
Had a dinner double date with our friends Liz and Ling at Earl’s Kitchen & Bar at Tyson’s Corner this past weekend. I had never heard of Earl’s before, but we really liked their food. Turns out its a Canadian restaurant chain with only a few locations in the U.S. (so far!)
