My Life According To...

Happy Earth Day!!!

Today I honored Mother Earth by drinking coffee from my pretty, new, reusable green coffee cup

ooo and using my reusable grocery bags...love those.

So, yes, today I channeled my inner tree-hugger.

 Earlier this week, Mother Nature brought some storms to these here parts.

Fortunately, for me, this meant a bunch of yummy baking.

Life lesson: put fruit in a cookie...it will make you feel healthier. 

Another life lesson: the simplest cookie that you make can be the BEST cookie that you make, and one that everyone loves.

Almond Butter works wonders...put it in a cookie...or just eat it off a spoon.

 Oh, oh...more sweets. 

Don't mess with my peanut butter.

 First thing that comes to mind with rain: Banana Bread. 

 Add some orange zest, and a sweet glaze...you can thank me later. 

I love nautical stripes...secret: I stole this dress from my mom. It is unbelievably comfortable.

 Oh, and that jean jacket, it is Abercrombie and Fitch vintage, circa 1992. I have had it since I was a freshmen in college. I took a trip to Santa Monica, Ca with my aunt and I visited the two story A and F at the promenade there. I remember calling my dad to negotiate the price with him. The only question he asked me was: "Will you wear it." My response was "I will wear it forever." I stayed true to my word, no? My fave part about the jacket is the tag sewn inside, which reads "You are beautiful."

Side note: I worked at A and F for a summer during my high school years. I still have a phobia of loud music, teenagers throwing clothes into odd corners of the room, and fragrance that smells of b.o.

My new obsession, sparkly nails, mix-matched nails, bright nails...do it. All three.

HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE EARTH DAY?

MANGIA!!!
