Five Things

{A dramatic bib necklace that lives part-time on my piggy bank}

This past week in Northern California has been amazing, despite a lingering cold. We postponed our day trips that were supposed to be spent drinking wine, having picnics, and lounging by the beach, and decided to come back next month (also for this). I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I can’t wait to share a very special giveaway on Monday.

    Keeping soap in your lingerie drawer is a smart idea!

    My husband shares your love for Saturday morning sugar cereal. It was his birthday recently and we put fruit loops on his cake. They were delicious and added some fun colour and crunch!

    obsessed with Mistral hand soaps- I just discovered them! the lemon verbena is so uplifting and everyone comments on how fresh and gentle it is.

    It’s funny to see sugary cereal is your Saturday tradition. As kids we could only have “treat cereal” on Wednesdays and Saturday, a tradition I continued into adulthood!

  • Alyssa Garza

    Where did you get the pig?!

  • Maria

    HI Emily,

    Love the colours of the fruit loops, and the spoon. You have a great eye for detail.
    Great piggy bank, inspiring to save when it goes into something so pretty!
