Hi, friends! I'm feeling spring in the air this week (finally).
The gorgeous view on my walk around the Central Park Reservoir.
Last night, I went for a walk in Central Park, and I swear that I even saw a few blades of green grass peeking through all the brown. It's all making me very happy.
Of course, there are rumblings of another storm heading our way, but I'm just going to ignore that for now. I hope I'm not the only who feels like their life has revolved around the crazy weather this year!
Here are a few of the inspirational links I found this week:
Brit + Co. has 16 Fresh Wallpapers for Your Desktop. I'm partial to the colorful cacti.
These Crispy Roasted Lemon Baby Artichokes from Running to the Kitchen look amazing. Plus, my husband hates artichokes ... more for me!
I'm an Aries (my bday is next week), so I enjoyed reading my Monthly Fashion Horoscope from On the Daily EXPRESS. What's your sign? Does it fit you?
The Londoner shows you how to make Ice Cream for Breakfast, and it's healthy (win-win).
This was the amazing view at the end of my walk. I kept stopping to take pics!
I love making my own jewelry, so this Anthropologie Braided Bobs Bracelet Knockoff from Flamingo Toes caught my eye immediately. It even has a tassel!
Make your own Kate Spade-Inspired Glitter Watch. Glitter and Gloss shows your how.
This Smoky Avocado Ranch Dip from Coconut & Lime sounds divine.
No fountain of youth, no problem. Mrs. Lilien tells you how to stay Forever Young.
I made some freezer smoothie packets this week ... very convenient.
Hold your keys on a DIY Studded Leather Key Ring from A Pair & a Spare.
Toast is having a moment. The Beauty Department has 3 Ways to Top Avocado Toast that are delicious and good for your skin, too.
I love, love, love this DIY Penant Banner Pillow from A Beautiful Mess. But, if you don't want to make one, you can always buy one.
Did you know that Target has their own beauty box? The best thing about it is that it only costs $5 (plus, no subscription required). This is my first one, and I loved it. It's totally worth it for the full size mascara and lip gloss alone! The box is sold out, but I'll let you know when the next one comes out.
Iced Coffee is better with a paper straw and cute coaster!
OK, I can't forget the cocktail. Making Nice in the Midwest shared a recipe for a Clementini that looks so tasty. Cheers to the weekend!
How are your weekend plans shaping up? Mine involve a movie marathon.
P.S. Follow me on Pinterest to keep up with everything that catches my eye!
