It's a hot one...

Happy Friday folks, we are in for a very hot weekend in these parts so I have plans to stay cool in the comfort of my home.  Perhaps whip up some non-oven using dishes like this garden salad from Laylita.  It looks amazing and I have most of the ingredients already growing in the yard.

And perhaps, enjoying this refreshing cocktail from Fresh 365.  Champagne, lemon sorbet, mint... what's not to love.  I hope you all enjoy your pre-holiday weekend if you are located somewhere in the heat wave please be safe.  ENJOY!!!!

Happy Friday

I am so happy it's Friday, words cannot even describe.  I hope to have a pretty relaxing weekend enjoying my time away from work.  What do you all have planned this weekend?

I plan on doing a little lounging on the beach, I only wish I could look as glamorous as her.  I usually look like a sandy mess within two minutes of stepping on the sand.

And perhaps sipping on this rhubarb spritzer cocktail I found on Eat Boutique, if you haven't seen that website I highly recommend.  Everything looks amazing.

Happy Friday

I hope everyone has had a good week so far.  For a short work week it sure does feel like I've worked three weeks in one. Unfortunately, I don't think the weekend will allow much time for relaxation.

We plan on having a multi-family yard sale at our home on Saturday Morning, bright and early at 7:00am.  I can only hope ours is as organized and successful as the one pictured here from Real Simple.  Somehow, I doubt since I just starting getting stuff together last night, haven't cleaned the dust off of anything, priced anything or even thought about how it would be "styled" at the sale.  On a plus note, I did put the add on craigslist last weekend for it, so I guess that's a step in the right direction.

I also need to starting working on the pillow covers I'm making for a client, she chose this beautiful coral fabric and I love it.  It will add such a nice pop of color to her living room and it's perfect for a home that is filled with two beach lovers.

I myself have been sitting on some table napkins from World Market that I'd hope to turn into throw pillows for my bedroom and would like to tackle that too.  World Market has a great selection of cloth napkins at really great prices and they are the perfect size for covering throw pillows. We'll see...no promises.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, enjoy!! 

Happy Friday

TGIF for realsss.  It's been a very long week but I am looking forward to a fun filled weekend spent with some of my bestest friends.  Since tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo I thought I would share a little photo and recipe from the fine folks at Sweet Life Bake for a Grapefruit Margarita... yummy.  What festivities do you all have planned?
