Weekly Wrap-Up

Hello, February! Isn't it funny that people who go to Starbucks all the time don't refer to their beverages by their actual name (ie: Chai, Mocha, etc.) but instead just call them "Starbucks"? I've always found that amusing.

This week went by super fast. We went to the movies a couple of times, won third place ($10 bar tab) on trivia night and got a new couch (pictures coming soon; probably in this weekend's edition of weekend in pictures). I have a busy weekend ahead but will hopefully get a chance to tackle more of my to-do list.

Bloglove:
* SF Girl By Bay reminds us that Modernism Week is about to begin in Palm Springs!
* Joan feeds my floor plan obsession with a peak at hers.
* Totally in love with this chalkboard door.
* Amy motivates us to love ourselves.
* Another breathtaking piece of eye poetry from the lovely Irene.
* A very touching post about the good and the not so good moments that make us who we are.
* Some very inspiring inspiration notebooks.
* A photo of our visit to the Best Friends Animal Shelter opening made it on their site!

I think I need to stay at this hotel in Palm Springs solely for this video. I wish I knew where they run off to at the end...


I'd also like to say hello to all you new readers out there! Thank you for making my blog a part of your day. Enjoy your weekend! What are your plans?

Palm Springs Iconic Home Tour

As some of you may know, this week is Modernism Week in Palm Springs, California and we had the unique opportunity of touring the newly named historic site, the Menrad House, designed by William Krisel. It was the perfect balance of casual flow and minimalist simplicity. All I can say is I wanted to move in right then and there. Loving this retro design and those clerestory windows allowing for all of that natural light without sacrificing ones privacy. That artwork is fantastic and the bedding in that master bedroom...  love . This patio cover is to die for. A genius way to provide a bit of shade without feeling closed in. The design is so simple but the overall effect is absolutely stunning. Apparently, these homes sold so fast that a brochure was never even produced to promote them. I snapped a few shots of the neighboring houses and will share them soon. Next up, a tour of vintage trailers and caravans on Saturday. Can't wait to get inspired for wh...

Purple Power Juice

As we wrap up our 3 day juice reboot , I find myself thinking about this fruity concoction we enjoyed on day 2 . A strong, berry burst with a bite of ginger, perfect as a morning pick-me-up. Remember, fruit is best consumed in the morning on an empty stomach because it moves through your digestive system much faster than other foods. 6 cups of concord grapes 1 green apple 1/2 cup of blackberries 2 2"  pieces of ginger (I used 1 1" piece because ginger is super strong) Enjoy! xo Sécia Check out our other juice recipes  here !
