Welcome to Nesting, where I recap my week on the blog, and share some of my favorite things from the week! So grab a cup of coffee or whatever warm bevvy you prefer and curl up!
Happy Daylight Savings! Here is your reminder that today we spring ahead (and lose an hour of sleep). May your coffee be extra strong!
Speaking of coffee, yesterday I got to check out the cutest little coffee shop and bookstore that just opened. If you are local, it’s called Novel Biblio Brew. I actually went to high school with the owner Sara and she has done a beautiful job creating such a cozy space. I hope you will go check it out!
There were some gorgeous versions of some of my most beloved classics, including The Secret Garden and Beauty and the Beast.
Tonight is the Oscar’s! So be sure to come swing by my IG stories for a recap of the best and worst red carpet looks!
Here’s what’s been happening lately on the blog:
- I shared my Irish cream cold brew recipe so you can make your own at home.
- My favorite recipes and ideas for St. Patrick’s Day.
If you missed it, I had the opportunity to be a guest on my friend Lynn from Living Large in A Small House’s Podcast. Click here to listen to the full episode. We chat about how I got my start blogging, owning chickens, gardening and more!
