notes to earth

 

Dear Earth,

Happy Earth Day. I really like you. A lot. And although I sometimes forget to throw my plastics in the blue bins or turn off the lights, I really try to remember to be kind to you. Because you're pretty kind to me. And again, I really like you. A lot. So today, and henceforth, I am going to be even more conscious of how I treat you. And I’m going to take even more time to enjoy you and do things like run my toes through the grass. Because you deserve it. And you’re just so rad.

xo,

Kait

light me up before i go

 

Today is special. I can feel it in my bones. It’s been miserably raining all. week. long. and I’m tired of it. But today, oh today, she’s special. For more than one reason. For starters, the sun is set to be out. Oh, sweet sun! And it should stay in the 60’s for the majority of the day. Five o’clock just can’t come quickly enough. I have big plans. Like plans to wander about my lovely neighborhood. And plans to turn up my speakers and open my windows and doors to let Springtime in. And plans to spend some quality girlfriend time (because Honey is gone getting some quality cabin time with his sweet Mama and Pops). And plans to enjoy. Because today, oh today is just special. xo

currently crushing: the staves

For your Sunday viewing pleasure…

It’s been on repeat over here and I don’t even feel bad about it. I might even get out my trusty guitar and do some work on my finger callouses.

You’re welcome.

brownies & blossoms

It’s one of those weeks. Ladies, you know what I’m talking about. Those weeks when nothing seems to make you smile, except a Symphony bar with almonds and toffee, of course. Last night, it was half a tray of fudge brownies. I’m honestly beginning to wonder why Honey still claims to love me (and just for that, I love you too, Honeybuns). But really, as if being a woman isn’t a task enough, every few weeks or so, I’ve got to deal with this monster inside of me that wants to devour everything in her sight and scream at everyone in her path. So, to tame the beast, Honey and I filled our bellies with a delicious gnocchi dinner last night and then took a stroll through our neighborhood. Which currently happens to be sunny and in full bloom and doesn’t require a sweater or jacket. SCORE. Now THAT makes me happy. Even happier than chocolate fudge brownies with symphony bars. *Gasp* Did I just say that?!

 

mama loves her cake balls

 

These little beauts were a hit Friday night! They were featured at the Cake & Cocktails event at Alta Moda Bridal, in Salt Lake City, and I’m just going to say it, I was one proud and excited baller mama. There isn’t much that makes me happier than someone who loves our cake balls, and sure enough, the love was a-flowin’! It’s official, cupcakes are so out and cakeballs are in!

xoxo,
