Starting to do some spring cleaning projects around the house now that it’s April! Our master bedroom closets are up first and I’m pretty sure we haven’t gone through Todd’s stuff in like for-ever, so it will feel good to clean all that out and only keep the good stuff to organize a bit. Organizing is always a bit of a chore that I secretly like (especially when the end result is neat and pretty!). But it’s just hard to find the time these days, so I’m always happy when it actually gets done. Here’s what else I’m loving this week:
1. Definitely going to try this for a make-ahead morning breakfast! Sounds so good!
2. Summer pjs for Lola.
3. Love this for a kid’s art station.
4. I would literally build a porch around this patio umbrella—it’s amazing!!!
5. These for summer.
6. Cutest. Jumpsuit. Ever.
7. My healthy guilty pleasure lately is eating frozen sweet cherries at night when I’m craving something sweet. I just cut them in half and wait for them to melt a bit before diving in and sometimes (OK, a lot of the time) I add mini chocolate chips to the bowl. So yummy!
8. Going on a few early summer trips soon and this is a cute and easy-to-wear outfit.
9. I want to go to there!
10. Been making a lot of healthy (and budget friendly!) meals from this book lately—it’s great!
I had those snakeskin pants in a 10 Things list recently, but I wasn’t sure if I should go for them or not—they are so fun to wear so I’m glad I did! xo. Laura

Regarding the Beverly Hills Hotel – PLEASE omit this from your list due to that hotel being owned owned by the kingdom of Brunei after it enacted new Islamic laws that make gay sex and adultery punishable by stoning to death
I can’t believe it’s mid-April… and I still haven’t started my spring cleaning yet! Uh oh. Might as well do it today! Have a lovely Sunday, ABM 🙂

Oh yikes. #9 Beverly Hills Hotel is definitely beautiful! And I love this history of it. But has a little controversy going on with it now. :/
Just a quick google search on it:
“Another ongoing boycott has hit the Hotel Bel-Air and Beverly Hills Hotel properties, two of Los Angeles’s most storied Westside hotel and restaurant destinations. At issue is the overarching Dorchester Collection company which owns both hotels, and is backed by the anti-gay government of the sultan of Brunei, east of Malaysia. Just this week, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah extended new laws that (among other things) would allow LGBTQ people to be stoned to death in his country for practicing gay sex. “
Oh wow! Certainly wasn’t aware of all that, I just loved the decor! Thanks for letting me know!
