857264a1c90423a8cb9169dd6c4d8656The beauty of life is that there is something new to do and see every day. Well, it’s been an interesting ride of life to say the least, a two month journey where I went to new places, like Tumamoc Hill, did new things, like go to my first Cowboy Pig Roast, made new friends, shared some laughs and smiles, but as is life this time also brought upon tears and sadness, stress and anxiety, doubt and uncertainty, had my phone stolen and felt disconnected from “me.” I’ve taken construction criticism, given advice, and leaned on true friends for support and strength to find myself again. We all get a little side tracked at times, no one is perfect and we all go through hardships. Overcoming struggles and realizing that there is a positive end no matter what the situation at hand is, makes us stronger. I finally had my “aha” moment after yoga hour, my first class in about 4 years, and realized that I was the happiest and most zen after returning from Jamaica, where I’d mediate and wake up doing yoga every morning listening to Bob Marley. Everyday was a fresh new start, there wasn’t a problem that weighed me down for too long and I didn’t allow myself to get overworked over the littlest of things. As Spring feels more like Summer here in Tucson, I’ve embraced this past week with that same mentality and enjoy this fresh rejuvenation. I feel like myself again and feel happily bliss. So whatever you may be facing with now, remember that there is sunshine at the end of the road…I’ll leave with snapshots of my life recently. Have a happy weekend!

Dreamery Headshot_2020

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…

Little Delia is turning 5 this weekend! I still ca Little Delia is turning 5 this weekend! I still can’t believe that time has passed by & I’ve been lucky to have done her birthdays since she was 1. So here’s a little walk down memory lane to all her past sweet & fun parties🌸

• 4th Boho Butterfly Garden
• 3rd I Scream for Ice Cream Bash

This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chriss This Soba Tom Yum Noodle dish, inspired by @chrissyteigen recipe wouldn’t be considered traditional but it does celebrate the beautiful Thai flavors I love. I’ll take all the spice & lemongrass please🍜😋!! It’s certainly become a staple of mine, one I’ve recreated several times & I highly recommend you save in your back pocket because it will leave you craving more...& more!! 

I used to post lots of recipes on the blog ‘til weddings/events/design took center stage & hoping to do so more again. Get this recipe on the blog now!
I read something yesterday, that made me instantly I read something yesterday, that made me instantly stop & reflect..."Some people think that having Hope makes you naive, but in my mind, it's so much harder to choose Hope over being angry or frustrated..." As someone who considers herself quite a hopeful person, I've had this on my mind since. Let's not confuse Hope w. toxic positivity {in which negative feelings or hardships are pushed aside}, when there is Hope, we still acknowledge our worries, the drawbacks of life, the sadness but still know that there is good.

We've all been doing our best nearing a year into this pandemic; the lives lost, families broken, the uncertain long-term issues, jobs, livelihoods disrupted & most recently too many people to count, struggling after a natural disaster. My heart breaks & is w. all of you, but despite the darkness, what I've also seen during these trying times...is Hope & Love. Communities & strangers coming together to help one another however way they can, even when they too are struggling to get by. That right there, is Hope. Be gentle with yourself, be gentle w. those around you. We’re all doing the best we can🤍
