Short and Sweet

If only this week had been filled solely of sparkles and sweets, I wouldn’t be nearly as exhausted.  Thankfully though, it was a good week, but I am in need of a weekend at home.  Hopefully the weather will cooperate and allow for some leisurely walks and maybe even some time reading on the porch.  Either way, my feet will be up for quite a bit of it. Thank goodness simple doses of happiness can be so inexpensive.

Speaking of happiness, some say that happiness finds us when we are busy, not just mindlessly so, but instead, busy being involved in something our hearts aspire to attain.  In such cases, you’ll recognize it because the clock doesn’t exist, and your watch is worn simply for decoration.  Hopefully, if you have been toiling away, you’ve been working hard towards dreams that are becoming evermore a reality. If that is the case, I’m sure you’ve missed a few posts this week.  Here’s what you might have missed in case you would like to get lost in a bit more luxury:

Monday – Step Forward With Confidence

Tuesday – J’Adore Fireplaces Continued

Wednesday – Bring More Luxury To Work

Thursday – The Easiest Way to Pretty

Friday – Chocolate, Chocolate and more Chocolate

Saturday – Lazy Lavender Days

Here’s to the days getting longer and the blooms all the more plentiful! Enjoy.

Short and Sweet

For some reason, spring and cupcakes fit wonderfully together in my mind.  This week was a nice easing-back-into-the-routine-of-things week after returning from vacation, and how fortunate I feel to have had a few beautiful moments thrown in.

A dear friend of mine recently shared the special news that she and her husband are expecting – congratulations you two.  My heart is leaping for you, you have no idea.  And, on a far more mundane note, yet for me something fun, attending the unofficial grand opening of a local restaurant.  Throngs of amazing people, fantastic entertainment (myself and two friends competing in a spelling B – hilarious!) and a beautiful setting.  Hopefully I will have pictures of it soon.

On that note, it was a busy week, so if you too found yourself taking in a few social engagements during the work week and didn’t find as much time as you would have liked to browse the web, here is what you might have missed at Simply Luxurious:

Monday – Have You Heard Your “Click”?

Tuesday – Stacks of Decor

Wednesday – A Day in the Rose City

Thursday – Looking for a Good Book or Two?

Friday – Wine and Pasta

Saturday – It’s A Wrap

Take a nap, chat with a friend, peruse the markets, enjoy time with your family, or take a relaxing walk to put your soul at ease.  Whatever you choose to do,  I hope you find it simply luxurious.
