Hello, Friday! Link Roundup

Well, hello there! Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Daffodils near The Lake in Central Park

NYC weather has been gorgeous this week. I didn't even need a jacket on a couple of the days! Spring is way too short here, so I'm trying to relish the beautiful weather while it lasts.

After an appointment earlier this week, I stepped into Central Park for a breath of fresh air. It was so lovely that I decided to walk home instead of taking the subway. Everything is turning green, and I spotted lots of pretty flowers.

I took some pictures to share with you, along with my favorite posts from the week. Enjoy!
