What a week it has been! I got the dream job, embraced the endearing wrath of friendship, and I’ve finally felt the holiday sparkle and magic in Tucson. Things are finally falling into their place, and it couldn’t come at a more perfect time of the year. I’m not getting myself worked up over the fact that this amazing year is ending soon, but I’m living every second of it and enjoying it to the fullest. I can’t wait for the upcoming year either, as I feel like it will be filled even more amazing memories and new changes! IMG_5798

{I finally got my cookies from my fellow swappers. My roommate loved the gingerbread cookies Shawn, from The Healthy Helping, sent over and who would’ve thought these sandies by The Pancake Princess were vegan!}

{a favorite of mine and the girls, Cafe Poca Cosa, is our usual spot for drinks but this week we decided to have our Thursday night happy hour dinner there. With a menu that is changed daily on a chalkboard I enjoyed my favorite Frescatini made with basil alongside my Pescado a Toluca com Calamar…delicious! I couldn’t help but snag a picture of my roommate’s Plato Poca Cosa, a chef’s choice of any three menu options. Our culinary adventures has not only led us to great food, endearing friendships but great ideas for the future!}PicMonkey Collage

A Lover of Nature & Kindness, constantly smitten by the simple pleasures of life. Travel fills my soul with bliss & inspiration. Flowers are my weakness, a slice of homemade pie makes my heart sing. I love the outdoors & live for al fresco dinner parties, cozy candlelit romantic affairs with warm fires & blankets to share.

I dream about these things, it’s true. Yes, it’s all the small details in life that drive me & everything I do because we all deserve to celebrate every special moment in our lives…

I love how they make a statement in larger arrangements or more minimalist creations, but even more so, beautifully grouped together on their own in lovely vintage bud vases. Spring certainly has so many wonders & simple intricacies that bring us joy, even if for a brief season🌿

If you want to go on a little mental trip w. me, head over to the the Blog to read more about my lovely sailing trip in Porto. Sailing is one of my favorite ways to explore a city🤍🌊
Always embracing the subtle beauty that saturates Always embracing the subtle beauty that saturates the simple things🤍

I’ve found the less I share on social media the more authenticity thrives. The ever-dream & idea filled mind grows & flourishes. It’s been comforting knowing that other creatives I’ve admired for years, both event related & not, have in part felt the same. When one creative outlet was paused, the other creative ideas that had been hibernating in the mind, quietly waiting for their time, began to shine brighter & brighter. Yes, it’s been comforting feeling that commonality in change & perspective...

But the one thing that’s never changed for me, is celebrating the beauty in the simple things. Giving a new home, a new form of life to a simple treasure. Those subtle everyday moments that are beyond inspiring...
