full blown beauty ~


spring break was a wonderful one. there have been ups and downs, lots of tears and hiding, but alas, nothing happened, that i didn't learn from. and in my book, when the lesson is learned, that's good shit! ; )

two loaves of banana bread were made this morning. one for us, and one for our neighbor. 

projects were completed... cleaning the junk drawers, hosting prom dinners, and painting an old table. 

m&m's were eaten by the handfuls. oh and the road trips! they were a blast. lots of thrifting. i even scored some old pyrex. woot!

yes there were changes to the blog, thanks to this talented lady. go see her she is amazing to work with!  

it's cold and rainy here. i kind of love Sundays like this one. lots of doing nothing, plus thick slices of warm banana bread and tea.  

i have missed you so very much. 
xoxo

If you lived nearby, I would bring you a handful of frozen bananas that you could use for your next batch of banana bread. I fear they are sadly neglected at my house.

Wishing you a beautiful and simple Sunday.
