GOOD MORNING!Today is the first post where I will be linking up to Yellow Songbird's blog for Saturday Snapshot.This is a picture of my sister's and I (bridesmaid) and our cousin (flower girl) for my brother's wedding.They leave for their "postponed-until-spring-break" honeymoon today, so I feel like it's only fitting to include a picture taken on such an important day in my family.:)Wedding blog posts can be found here and here.

I found this pretty simple DIY tutorial on Cupcakes and Cashmere, one of my frequent stalks.I really want to do this.  It would be great to change the flowers out with each season.Plus... it floats.  Dogs and cats can't knock it over!Genius.

Chocolate cookies with caramel and sea salt.

I recently discovered the magic of sea salt conjured with desserts.

Yummy.

Party Animal Necklaces-- Need I say more?

I'll post a pic, once my legs don't blend in with the sidewalk.
Here's something to ponder for the afternoon:

I'm writing my 60th posts, and I have 60 followers.

Yay me!

Have a good one, my chickens!

seven things.

Here are some items I am loving at the moment.  

1. Gun-metal grays 

I am in love with the Black Pearl shade from Chanel.  Gun metal grays are going to be huge this spring.

2. Bud vases

I got these bud vases from Target, and put some white roses in them to brighten up the room.

3. Rock Lamp

At the West Elm Outlet, I found this BEAUTIFUL lamp for 1/3 the original price.

4. Pier One Dishes

I got these dishes from Pier One on clearance and they're perfect to hold some of my favorite jewelry.

5. YSL Parisienne Parfum

I got this perfume for Christmas and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

6. Vegetable bean spinach soup

I'm adding spinach to everything these days.  Give it a try, so delicious (& nutritious).

7.  Musings Journal

This journal is so cute.  It is from Davis Kidd and reminded me of my friend, Jessica.

I hope you liked checking out my favorite things.

Have a good Monday and be sure to appreciate the little things in life.

Cheers, B
