A seasonal lifestyle blog

A love letter to style, heirloom recipes, creative pursuits, motherhood, and life’s little joys through my camera lens.

Frozen Blackerry Granita

This mocktail was made for hot summer nights and large gatherings! If you really think about it, this combination of late summer ingredients is really magical. You’ve got ripe sweet blackberries, fresh mint, refreshing lemon, and the zip of lime!

Sparkling Grapefruit Refresher

Seeing as I am not a huge grapefruit person, I have to concede that this fruit is THE fruit to use to achieve that bubbly, barely-there-pink color in a drink.

Summertime Snip & Savor

I had the opportunity to join Lisa from Hollow House Farm and Kimberlee from Moods of Motherhood Photo for a lovely summer evening of sweet sips, scrumptious bites, and of course farm flower picking!

The 20+ Year Old Shirt I Keep Wearing

It’s hard to believe that this shirt is considered “vintage” because it is so timeless and classic.

Turmeric Ginger Mocktail with Floral Ice

I used to rely on Pinterest for mocktail ideas but now I am feeling confident in my own groove.

Time to Exhale

I am not even unpacked from our short beach trip and already reminiscing back on it as one of the greatest trips I will ever remember down at Long Beach Island.

Narrow street in Italy with old buildings, people walking, and traffic signs overhead.

A woman with blonde hair tied in a ponytail, wearing white jeans and a beige scarf, holding a phone and a bag outdoors at sunset.

A woman wearing a hat and a light sweater walking through a tulip farm, with rows of white and pink tulips and a green landscape in the background.
