...these random things

Hi friends! Happy Friday! These are some things I'm simply loving right now...

She has the most fabulous style...I'm currently obsessed.

A gorgeous collection of Royal Wedding photos! Did anyone else geek out like me and wake up early to watch? And maybe tear up just a bit when you could see William say to Catherine that she looked beautiful?!

These are super cute and unique notecards.

A treat I think I need to make soon... 


Have such a happy weekend!



...the Royal Wedding

Blah blah I know it's all anyone is talking about but how can you not? It's just all so fabulous. By the time this is posted Kate's dress will have debuted and the world will have a new Princess. So, for the aftermath on this fabulous Royal Wedding Friday, here's a fascinating blog article on the history of the Princesses crowns: this is glamorous



And the scones I made for breakfast this morning from smitten kitchen. Proper celebration with tea and scones was obviously required. Plus you need something hearty for breakfast at 5:30 in the morning.

...bright red

I am loving red right now almost (just almost) as much as I'm loving hot pink.

...these photos from the anthro website

Reminds me of the pound of gelato I ate every day when I lived in Florence.





...my spring wishlist

Dear spring, thanks for arriving! Now it's time for cute new things!


This J.Crew red skirt is perfect for casual Saturdays and dressed up for work.

...baking after (fake) giving up sugar for lent

So I did something ridiculous. I attempted (attempted might be too nice of a word) to give up sweets for Lent. I'm not Catholic or even a regular church attender, but I thought it would be a god challenge, and make me break my dessert after every meal and twice in the afternoon habit. I needed help. So I did really well for about a month. And then I broke down and ate some ice cream. And then I made myself these cookies by my favorite Joy the Baker. Downhill spiral from there. A weekend in NYC followed, and then Ben and Jerry's was on sale at the store (what can I say, I'm weak?). So in the next couple weeks I'm looking forward to baking some tasty things!
