Happy Sunday, friends! Can you believe it is already mid-March? Spring is knocking at the door and it’s an understatement to say I’m here for it! Grab something to sip on, settle in, and let’s do what we do every Sunday, find a little beauty in the everyday moments. I’ve got some good things gathered for you this week.
“It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold, when it is summer in the light and winter in the shade.”

My Personal Moments
- Are you a March Madness person? I’m typically not a big basketball girl, with the exception of college basketball. It’s Selection Sunday and I’ll be picking my brackets tomorrow!
- The Oscars are on tonight. Do you watch them? Even though I haven’t seen all the movies, I always like seeing who wins. When I worked in an office, I organized an Oscar pool every year and whoever got the most top picks correct would win lunch. So fun!
- Did I mention I’m going to Italy in a few months? I can’t wait and I’m especially looking forward to the food! If you’ve been before, I’d love for you to tell me your favorites things to see.
- I bought the prettiest spring wreath! You can see it here.

Normally, I am a college basketball kind of gal. Lately, I find my time to be limited to enjoy watching any games. Ugh! I know you are getting excited about your upcoming trip. Thrilled for you!
