Friday Favorites

May 16, 2014 · Leave a Comment

Friday FavoritesI just cannot contain my excitement and happiness this week. At the moment, I’m en route to Lake George where I’m honored to be taking part in my best friend’s wedding. I can’t believe the day is finally here, and I can now stop dreaming of beautiful outdoor ceremonies like this, since I’ll be walking down the aisle as a bridesmaid for the first time! Words can’t explain how thrilled and happy I am that she will finally be marrying her longtime love. I’m also excited about the new job I will be starting after my return from my week in Mexico, oh just another thing I’m looking forward to.

Walking through Central Park, after finishing up all the necessary paperwork, I thought about my near future. And although it’s not necessarily my dream job or career, I feel happy and confident because I know it’s the right move for me at the moment, and can lead to so much more. I’m positive and open-minded that this, and my time in New York City, will bring me closer to my dreams. It’s all about your expectation of things in life that come your way, and how you perceive them. If you put optimistic vibes out there, then you’ll attract the things you want, so I’m staying completely open and free of how my life should be, because life has a funny way of disguising opportunities and miracles. {top image via}Friday Favorites Pretty Peonies in full bloom

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🌸

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🤍
