Happy Friday Darlings, 

Seems to me that these weeks are flying by faster than ever...before I know it, my little baby boy will be making his arrival into this beautiful world.  But in the meantime, this week has been another busy one...mainly because I have been involved in planning a bridal shower for one of my very close friends.  
As the shower has a British Tea Party theme to it - my role today has been whipping up the truffles.  Nutella flavored confections, anyone?  By the time this is all said and done I will have oodles and oodles, so come on over to my kitchen and help yourself :-)  

Other than that, the very sweet Laura of Shop of Worldly Delights on Etsy sent me the cutest package full of hair bows from her Vintage Garden Collection.  Seriously, I couldn't have been more delighted (no pun intended), being a bow-wearing kind of gal myself.  Better yet, the whole collection is made from repurposed vintage pieces and fabrics, so it's 100% earth friendly. I can't wait to share more of these little beauties with you because the prints on them are whimsical and darling to the umpteenth power.  I stuck this particular one on my little red beret as the weather was windy and dancing in the mid 20s.  Yep, spring surely hasn't sprung on my side of the mountain yet but this little pastel bow surely puts some spring in my step...hehe.  You can check out Laura's shop right here if you do so please.

Well then, have one perfectly sweet weekend my dears!  Catch you soon!
Love Bunches,
