Entertaining | Beach Day Picnic with World Market
Spring is a fickle friend when it comes to weather, but we’ve had a couple of great warm weather days lately which inspired this post. Last weekend we decided to hit the beach for a simple beach picnic for Mother’s Day. Also, I love me some rides, so I thought a trip to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk was in order! Perfect way to celebrate in my opinion.

Simple Modern Easter Basket Ideas
After planning my little brunch the other day, I couldn’t help thinking more about my kid’s Easter baskets. Of course they’re all about the candy, but I try to strike a good balance with other fun items (not filled with sugar!). Here are some adorable Easter items that I have my eye on this year. I already have a few of them, as you might have noticed from this post, and there’s a few I’ll will be ordering very soon! What do you put in your kid’s Easter baskets? Any fun items I should check out?

Simple Easter Brunch with World Market
My kids and I saw the new Peter Rabbit last Sunday. It was cute, feel good kid’s movie with shenanigans that reminded me of old-school cartoons. The kids loved it, so when World Market asked if I’d be interested in showcasing their new Peter Rabbit collection, I thought it would be fun to set up an easy, simple Easter-style brunch. I like to keep presentation and entertaining relatively simple. It’ a lot of work cooking, cleaning, decorating, etc! Why not keep things clean, appealing and functional? That’s my motto.
So I came up with this cute, minimalist table setup for the kid’s and a couple of their neighbor-friends.
We’re selling Girl Scout Cookies
If you follow me on Instagram stories you’ll have seen some of our Girl Scout adventures. This is kind of off-the-subject for us over here on the blog. BUT most parents bring cookie sale sheets into the office. Since I don’t have an office and I’d like help support Arden’s quest to sell some cookies…we have this post.
First of all, you can now order Girl Scout cookies online and have them shipped to you within a couple of days! I didn’t know this last year otherwise I would not have been without my favorite Samoas! Now that I know, I wanted to share the love (and cookies) with you all. Here is the link to my daughter’s cookie site. If you don’t have local Girl Scouts coming to your door, please feel free to use this link:
https://digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/arden497969
Cookie sales run for around a month – they end on February 4th, so don’t delay! Arden’s trying to meet her goal of selling 115 boxes so her and her troop can go horseback riding. They’re also helping out the local SPCA with their proceeds and their time. It’s their first year of selling cookies and as the troop leader, I’m trying to make it a good one! The amount of cookie boxes sold gets averaged out per girl, so all girls get to participate (no matter how many boxes she’s sold personally) as long as we average 115 boxes sold per girl scout!

Today we’re mixing up our usual room redos with this redone Christmas mantel! Your votes put Monika Hibbs’ ivory and blush decor in the top spot, and it doesn’t take a Christmas miracle to see why. The soft, contemporary color palette is a refreshing sight, and the furry stockings and rug cozy things right up. Her use of blush and caramel colored ribbon is impactful and affordable—our favorite combination—and the sprigs of eucalyptus in the cedar garland and wreath add a modern edge. What’s not to love?
