Well, it’s been crazy here in Houston this week. My yard has flooded and I have three leaks in my attic that are causing water to leak into our bedroom. I came home yesterday to a puddle on the floor in our bedroom and a wet bed. Ugh. It’s been just about a year since our first water issue with this casa, so it’s just crazy this is happening. You can read about my crazy floor fiasco here. Onto happier things! It’s supposed to be sunny today, so I’m going to enjoy that and hopefully spend some time outside!!
These are a few things that are making my week!
I’ve been thinking about 4th of July recipes and one of my all time favorites are my mason jar shortcakes. This year will definitely be different, as we have always celebrated the 4th with our besties. I’m wishing we could all be together this year! Boohoo! If you have not tried my shortcakes, they are awesome and easy. You can sub any fruit. I’m allergic to strawberries, so I always use blueberries or some other type of berry. Want to make a gluten free shortcake?! Head to this post to see my gluten free shortcake recipe!
My caprese skewer recipe is pretty great for the 4th of July or any summer BBQ for that matter! I LOVE them!
I’m having so much fun working on our TV room. I seriously can’t wait to show you the finished product! Things are arriving daily and I’m so excited to see it all come together! I shared my first inspiration board for the room (more coming next week), on Monday! In case you missed the post, you can see it here.
I am just LOVING maxi dresses lately. I can’t get enough of them!! I shared a few of my favorites last week! Did you see the post? If not, you can head here to check it out! This black maxi dress is one of my favorites!
Since it has rained SOOOOOO much this week, we have spent a lot of time at home. I’ve been using that time to try and get organized, print photos, etc. I came across this one of the little presidents and it is just so funny! It’s definitely one of my favorites ever!
I’m all about the palm leaf print and when I saw this romper for $25, I knew it was a summer must have! It comes in a few colors, but the palm print is my fave and such a summer staple!!
Anthroplogie’s Summer Tag Sale is happening now! You can’t miss this one! Head here to see all my picks!!
Well, that’s all for today! I hope you’ve had a fabulous week and that is been full of sun!!! Happy weekend, friends!! XOXO
I am loving the mason jar shortcakes! Definitely going to be making those this summer!
Those mason jar shortcakes look delicious!! Also, still loving that romper! I want to try the romper trend but haven’t taken the plunge yet.
