Hello there.
Thank you so much for all of the wonderful birthday wishes. And a big thanks to friends and family who went out of their way to make it even more special. I really had a great week made up of special breakfasts, lunches and dinners, a day of make up shopping and went to the movies not once, but twice! Good times.
Not only that, but the weather seems to finally be warming up.
So let’s start the week with a look at some great, mostly for the home, items spotted during the month of March.
- Champagne flavored gummy bears?! Yes, please. | sugarfina $6/3.5oz
- Maybe Spring will bypass us all together and go straight to Summer. And how I would love to welcome beach season with this beach blanket and its geometric lines. | kate spade saturday $50
- My Bodum French press seems so humble next to this creation honoring Irish designer Eileen Gray | wayfair $63/12 oz
- Whenever a hot color comes around, sometimes my level of commitment extends to being as small as nail color. This polish in the “color of the year” is definitely on the top of my list right now | essie’s going incognito
- ♣ Apparently the owners of Grumpy Cat have decided to cash in on the feline’s fame. GC has been put up for auction on eBay with bidding starting at $1,000. I for one love this little fur ball and am willing to overlook my cat allergies. Who’s in??
♣Happy April Fool’s Day!

haha, i totally fell for your april fools joke! but then i was thinking, wouldn’t they make way more money by keeping old grumpy cat? i also have cat allergies that make me unable to both breathe and see so my opinion on cats is generally tainted, but even i can’t not kinda love GC.
glad you had a great birthday week! that’s the way to do it. what movies did you see? anything good?

I’m kind of in love with GC too. I saw the OZ movie and went to a preview of an unreleased film 🙂

I’d take an English Bulldog over Grumpy Cat any day. LOL

Beautiful roundup! That French press is gorgeous. I would buy it and then never use it. It’s just too pretty. Happy to read that your birthday and weekend were nice. Shopping, yummy food, and two movies? That’s my kind of weekend! 😉

Sorry I missed your birthday, I hope it was fabulous! We headed away over Easter, and I’m just getting back into things. I want everything in your selection above, including the adorable cat. x

Hold the phone, champagne gummy bears? Where, oh where have these babies been my whole life?
Yelle says
That French press really is gorgeous! And it doesn’t seem too trendy, it’s classic so it will go with every era!

Champagne gummy bears??! What?! Oh, oh, I’m going to eat so many. And I would totally have bid on Grumpy Cat. I need him in my life because he is my spirit animal, clearly. Glad you had a great birthday!!
Gloria says
