To me, Little Luxuries are those small things that don’t cost a fortune – or anything! – but that never fail to bring a bit more shiny, happy Joy and Sunshine to my day 🙂 Natural lavender fragranced soap is my go-to little luxury after a long day. Here are my two […]
Just when the birds (singing) flowers (blooming), and I (packing away all my winter clothes) thought Atlanta weather had adjusted the dial to “SPRING,” it was 40-50 degrees this past weekend… “NOT SPRING.” I grabbed this left-un-put-away-because-I’m-thinking-of-wearing-it with-shorts (sleeves pushed way up, of course) striped sweatshirt, dug out my plaid coat, […]
