Flower School: Leucadendron (Blushing Bride)

 

Leucadendron are such beautiful flowers for such a weird name.  

They also go by Blushing Bride.  They are eye catching and romantic.  

Leucadendron are related to Proteas which are full of color and can be huge!  

But we'll give Proteas their own post sometime soon.

Holiday Weekend

What are you plans for the long weekend?

 Mine include: cooking, working, spending time with my husband, 

going on a run to get ready for my first race (eek!), 

sleeping in, and planning for an upcoming trip.

I hope your weekend is lovely!

Banana Egg Pancakes

Today I get to share with you my favorite 

weekend breakfast: Banana Egg Pancakes

They are very healthy and easy to make!  

You mix together two eggs and one banana (per person). 

Pour small amounts into a greased frying pan over medium-low.  

You will want to keep an eye on them and flip as needed.

 If you have a thing for sweets like I do you can add a couple of chocolate chips.  

This is definitely a favorite for my husband too!

Enjoy!

Calligraphy Chairs

I want this to be the next big thing.  

Instead of place cards you write everyone's name on their chair!

This. is. Genius.  (and gorgeous!)

 

This gorgeous idea came from the talented team of Karson Butler Events.

Their website is incredible and I would highly recommend taking a look.

Wish List

1. This ring is beautiful but maybe we'll opt for an etsy version for our one year anniversary.  A girl can never have too many rings.

2. If I could design my dream purse this would be it.  The shape, the color, LOVE

3. I'm loving these fancy earbuds.  However, I tend to destroy, tangle, and loose mine so I just can't quite splurge on these...

4.  I'm loving wrap sweaters.  If you remember my old blog (here) you'll know that I have always loved ballet.  The sweater above is simply perfect for the winter time.
