A Dose of Pretty

{My new favorite {and prettiest} afternoon pick-me-up: rose petals – from our yard – on top of my shortbread cookie dough.}

And somehow, summer rolled in this week as we bid adieu to the springtime. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the seasons go by. And while I am always excited for the autumn {and all the rain, golden leaves, crisp air, and excitement for the holidays}, I am constantly reminding myself to be mindful and enjoy each moment. Nostalgia, after all, is such an interesting thing. We long for the past, never taking into consideration how someday we will long for this exact moment. This weekend I plan to head to our local observatory to learn more about the stars and planets. I hope you have a great one as well!

Editor’s Note: I’ll be taking the next six weeks off for the Fourth of July + some summer travel. I hope you have a great one, and see you back here on August 8, 2023 with brand new content! x
