It's the first day of Spring! You wouldn't know it to look outside my windows right now with all the snow on the ground, but warmer weather is coming! Hallelujah. In honor of the first day of Spring, here are six things I'm loving right now...
:: The app called Starlight. Avery's fifth grade teacher recommended it and my kids have been having so much fun with it. And I have to admit that I'm fascinated with it too. You can point your phone anywhere and it tells you where the planets and constellations are. By the way, Venus and Mars have been very bright the past month or two and can be easily seen from earth. Have you seen them? We watch for them every night when the sky is clear.
.
:: The podcast How I Built This by NPR. I'm always interested in how companies get started, and this podcast talks to founders of some big companies like Lyft, Zappos, and Warby Parker. My favorite interview is with Kate Spade and her husband Andy.
.
:: My little lemon cypress tree. It is such a great shade of green and always makes me smile. I've had it for several months and it's been really easy to take care of so far.
.
:: The Lazy Genius blog and podcast. I've followed Kendra for a few years and she gives the most practical advice and always makes me laugh in the process. She is a gem.
.
:: Speaking of The Lazy Genius, she shared a recipe for Change Your Life Chicken. I made it for my family last week and I kid you not, it was one of the BEST meals I have ever made. In my life. So good and easy. You MUST try it.
.
:: I've probably talked about this before, but my favorite drink in all the land is Belvoir Fruit Farms Elderflower Cordial. It's hard to find, but they sold it at the Magnolia Bakery, and it made me love Joanna Gaines even more.
Happy Spring!
