Hello! I’ve rounded up a bunch of things I’ve been admiring for this week’s Cavalcade! post. I can’t see that much of a cohesive theme this time in this selection–do you? Maybe ‘organic chalky patina’ and ‘relaxed cool’?? And ‘pie’. Ha. Unsure, but I love and am inspired by all of these beauties. See more Cavalcade! posts HERE. I love this look for spring from Clu.

So, this week was pretty good–it didn’t seem to speed by too fast. I’ve been in total “keep your head down and keep working” mode, so even though I’ve still been on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter a little bit–I still feel like I’ve been “off the grid”. I’m looking forward to lifting my head up to spend time with a sweet friend who is coming up from California for a few days to go... Read More

I’ve been loving new-to-me blog, Keke, by Melbourne-based artist, Kirra Jamison. Her gluten and dairy free Pumpkin and Bee Pollen Cake caught my eye–it’s so beautiful and sunny! Plus, the crust is made from dates and walnuts which sounds fantastic. More recipes HERE. Images courtesy of Keke. Photography by Brooke Holm. TwitterFacebookPinterestStumbleUponEmail Read More

Have a wonderful weekend! We’re taking care of a 3 year old family member for a few days while her folks have some fun on the coast, so today I will be painting her fingers and toes pink with gold sparkles or one of the 10 other combos she rattled off after I gave her too much cake last night. Then we have some zoo, aquarium, coloring, fancy pink bubble bath, temporary tattoo and ice cream plans the rest of the weekend. I’m super psyched.... Read More
