Amazon Returns at Kohl’s in Norwalk
This is awesome!! I did this and it’s perfect. You don’t even need your slip. They can box the return for you and ship it out. No fee. They give you a coupon at Kohl’s to use after.
What’s Your Mood Today...What Do You Need?
Every once in a while I take out my stones. I hold them and see which one gives off heat. To me it means I need some of that energy. So today was the goldstone. Means I need more Happy Thoughts, Healing Energy.
It was accurate to the type of day I had. But felt better knowing that so far I haven’t been dealt anything I couldn’t handle. 🤎
Savvy & Grace in Westport
I could spent hours in this store. It’s filled with inspiration. Great vibes. Cute signs and bags and notebooks and cards and candles and everything a girl needs. If you’re ever in Westport please go. We walked about feeling happy and grateful and Inspired. Their website doesn’t do the store justice because the store is so freaking adorable.
Morning Walk at Vet’s Park in Norwalk
I had all intentions of heading to the gym even though I signed up to try a new class someplace else tonight. Then my mom reminded me to get my car looked at and to not over do my workouts. But working from home you don’t get a lot of steps in. I like to start morning with 5k since most of day I sit and work.
So today I got the best of both worlds. My car looked at and a walk with an amazing view while my car was at the shop. I even hit my 5k
I was one happy girl!
It’s the little things in life that make big impacts. I hope you too started your day on the right foot.
Life is So Short
With all these tragedies that have taken place near and far it’s a reminder to not take life for granted. To forgive quickly. Not hold a grudge. Tell people you love them and they matter to you. I always tell people how much I appreciate them. Be sure to too.

Love From a Distance
Anyone you once loved you always carry a piece of them in your heart. Sometimes still in your mind and that’s all ok. You can continue your life without them and still wish them well.
See if someone wants to be in your life they would. One lesson I learned. Take that advice and carry on with yours ❤️
Puerto Vallarta at The Taste Of Fairfield
I loved this table. My daughter at bedtime said I must have been Spanish in my previous life. Funny second person to say it this weekend. This Mexican Restaurant was on point. The plantains were delicious the steak tacos and taquitos were so fun and packed with flavor. Loved the alcohol samples they handed out too. So refreshing. I can’t wait to go here.
Taking it Back...The Real Way To Eat Dulce De Leche
I couldn’t find the wafers so I had to order them online. When they came in I was so excited. It was the real authentic wafers. My childhood rushed back to me.
I remember hanging at my friends house who is Colombian and she would make us this. It’s my favorite. I would later buy it at Los Sopreso in Norwalk but haven’t seen it there in years.
You spread the dulce de leche on the other side which is smooth.
I can’t wait for my kids to try it. They already love the little cups I gave them. Which come with cute little spoon I even brought one to a friend of mine who is Colombian and he couldn’t believe it. He used to eat the little cups as a kid. I gave him a couple to have his dad try too. He was so happy.
When you go through the stages and layers of healing and finding yourself you like to reconnect to things in your past that bring up happy memories. This is one of them for me. I hope you too enjoy the little joys in life.
Men You Don’t Have to Be So Tough
Love this. It’s ok for men to be gentle and kind. I love a sweet teddy bear. A man who is in the moment. Not distracted. One who feels connected to you when you’re together and talking. Men soften up. Also do what makes your heart fully happy.
Get Uncomfortable
Inorder to change and grow you need to get uncomfortable with yourself. You need to face reality. Sometimes we live a fairytale life to hid from our truths. You can’t do that. You have to face them and deal so you can heal.
Nothing ugly with changing for the better. Just some ugly truths you have to deal with during the process.
Old Post Tavern Braised Short Ribs with Jalapeño Mashed Potatoes
This was a favorite for my oldest and youngest. The jalapeño mashed potatoes were green but NOT spicey. The jalapeño are pre roasted and then masted. It was then plated with short ribs on top and mini fried onion rings. Delicious. We can’t wait to go here. https://www.oldposttavern.com/
Bowling and Bocce at Pinstripes
I love when spontaneous plans come together. That’s been my life lately and I love the groups of friends I have available for it.
I said to a friend be ready at 5 she says great and another buddy of ours is coming too. Perfect. The more the merrier is how I feel. I grab them and say Chinese for dinner then coffee and drinks and bowling at the Mall.
How great to be able to say that and everything is in Norwalk! I love the Sono Collection. I really think it’s so pretty. I love getting coffee at Nordstroms and walking around.
After we grabbed coffee we went upstairs to Pinstripes and it’s so cool inside. I have seen it a couple of times briefly but this time we went in and walked around. It’s huge and beautiful. There are bocce courts and bowling lanes. We hung out in the bowling area and ordered drinks. I loved the Old Fashioned because you just need one. It’s a great casual drink to sip on. The vibe in this place is so fun.
I can’t wait to take the kids to go bowling this weekend. It’s big and clean and bright.
After I hung out with a friend in Milford. He couldn’t believe they had bocce inside the Mall too. Such a cool place and I love it’s right in our town.
You totally need to go grab dinner and have some fun here!
Adult Fun Finds At A Taste Of Fairfield
There were plenty of fun treats for the Adults at the Taste of Fairfield. I loved the sampling of margaritas and mojitos, wine and beer. I am only a social drinker so these sampling sizes were perfect. But then there were these Prosecco filled metallic chocolates that when you bit into it there was a burst of Prosecco.
My favorite were the baileys cupcakes and baileys ice cream station.
It was perfect for the kids and adults. The kids had all these toppings to choose from and the adults got to add a shot of baileys. I chose chocolate ice cream with salted caramel baileys. Yeah it was amazing.
We All Have The Same Needs
We all want love, safety and understanding. We just have to get through some trials before finding it.
