I Love {Lavender Shortbread Cookies}

September 1, 2015July 31, 2016

I never make a trip to Savannah without popping in the divine Back in the Day Bakery.  It’s a darling little retro eatery that was made for a light breakfast, quick lunch or fabulous dessert.   I’ve never met one of their sweets or sammies I didn’t adore, but my top two are hands down the ‘nana puddin’ and… Read More

Zeta Tau Alpha

August 31, 2015August 31, 2015

I had such an amazing Saturday night catching up with my 1994 ZTA pledge sisters!  These gals are the kind of friends that you can go without seeing for ages and then pick right back up where you left off. It’s been twenty-one years since we became ZTA sisters at Georgia Tech.   I think we can all… Read More

More Flags More Fun

August 30, 2015August 31, 2015

Every year Coca-Cola employees spread the red at an exclusive night out at Six Flags!  And it’s the one night every year that we go.  We realized earlier in the week that John had just eeked past the 54″ height requirement that is a world of opportunity in the land of rollercoasters.  He was beyond… Read More

Shhh…Don’t Tell

August 29, 2015

We had such a FUN evening celebrating our friend S’s 40th birthday this past weekend.  I had been in cahoots with his wife for months on end and it was just wonderful to finally see all of her hard work come to fruition.  She held the event at the lovely St. Cecilia in Buckhead, and… Read More

I Love {Monograms} and So Do You

August 28, 2015August 29, 2015

I truly had the best time reading all of your comments when I posed the question “What is your very favorite thing to monogram?”  So many great ideas rolled in that it just seemed smart to compile a comprehensive list for everyone’s reference. Before I get started, I thought I’d share my top five things to monogram… I mean,… Read More

I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl I was and avid reader and dreamer as a little girl, and opening this felt like discovering a treasure chest. Honestly, it radiated just as much happiness and joy at 50. ❤️

My friend Katie recently launched @itsyourstorygifts, creating reading gift sets centered around a surprise chapter book and absolutely stuffed with bookish goodies. She sent me one of her Signature Book Boxes to experience for myself, and as you can see… it just kept going.

Everything was prepared with so much care and thought. I immediately pictured the child who would absolutely light up opening one of these, whether it arrived for a birthday, to celebrate something special, during a hard season or simply to say, “I’m thinking of you.”

I’m sharing much more about Katie, her new business and what’s inside the box on the blog today.

And stay tuned. We have something fun coming later this week!

Mahjong, but make it cards. @playhootenanny gifte Mahjong, but make it cards.

@playhootenanny gifted me their Mahjong Playing Cards, and Honey and I took them along on our recent weekend away. They’re beautiful, easy to pack and such a fun way to play when traveling with an entire mahjong setup isn’t exactly practical.

We picked it up surprisingly quickly, and these have officially earned a spot in my travel bag.

I shared more on the blog today, including a link to the set on Amazon!

This trip was never really about New York. It was This trip was never really about New York.

It was about watching two incredible kids chase big dreams, cheering them on from the front row, and soaking up every minute together.

The city was amazing… but these memories mean even more. 🤍🗽

To JB and Cee: we couldn’t be more proud. Enjoy summer in the city!
