High Fives From Malibu, CA

August 30, 2013 · In: TMI, Uncategorized

What an incredible week it has been in Malibu! Chris did a great job of finding us an awesome place to regroup after our move from Seattle! What are you up to this weekend? We are heading to Europe for 2 weeks! The trip starts with a cruise out of Rome to Greece and Turkey. Then we tour Rome for a couple days and then off to Paris for a few days! Wow! I will have daily posts throughout with some guest posts too! When we get back there will be lots of great vacation photos to share!

Here are the highest fives of the week!

1. These views out of our rental condo patio in Malibu.

2. These rings I saw a woman (Suzie LeQ) laying out on a table and organizing at a restuarant called Plate in Malibu. I asked her about them and she said she makes them and sells them to a local boutique down the street. They will also be featured in Fashion Week. She was so nice and I got to buy some from her! Then her friend said she has space available for an acupuncturist to rent in Santa Monica! Double score! Here’s an article I found on Suzie LeQ’s line, Rossmore, on Refinery 29: Kate Bosworth And Reese Witherspoon’s New Fave Jewelry Line, Rossmore.

4. Finding these gorgeous earrings the day before we go on our trip! I think they will look nice with the wedding dress in Paris!

5. This Ninja Penguin tin foil leftovers pouch made for the table next to us at Gladstone’s.

    Those earrings are absolutely gorgeous. And why have I never had an awesome leftovers pouch made for me? I must be going to the wrong restaurants! 🙂

After I finished breastfeeding our fourth baby, th After I finished breastfeeding our fourth baby, the varicose vein on my thigh was becoming really prominent.

It looked so bad but wasn’t sure if it was just cosmetic thing or something I should get checked out for my health.

I was avoiding it and “waiting until I had time” to deal with it as a mom of 4.

I finally made time and l’m so glad I did.

This was the start of my health journey at 45.

This makes our weekdays so much less chaotic, and I don’t feel like a scullery maid-I feel like I have a personal chef!

I get to focus my time and energy on connecting with the kids or taking a moment to rest. 

Throw these together really quickly this weekend for a smooth week. 

The mini meat loafies are a quick snack, packable lunch item or dinner main.

The turkey taco meat is so quick and you can make so many different dishes with it. 

PS it’s been a staple food in my health journey.

I like to cook my veggies day-of or have some washed and prepped in containers.

Have you considered a “pattern interrupt” element Have you considered a “pattern interrupt” element to design your space and make it stand out?

A design element that just doesn’t make total sense but adds the zest to the room that just makes it?

But why is it so hard to figure out the exact thing that will make your space special?

You’re an emotional decorator! You’re someone who walks into a room and knows she loves it but can’t explain why.

I’m here to help!

Part II of Translating what we love about this space-Nancy Meyers edition!

This iconic kitchen from It’s Complicated, is so funny because Jane is in the works to finally renovate to get her DREAM KITCHEN and we would all love to have this one as it is right now!

Why? 

Notice that there are layers of detail from floor to ceiling and even ceiling!

If you want your home decor to feel cozy, there’s nothing like decorating every surface.

Keep it neutral if too much business overwhelms you.
When I spotted this window shelf in the movie, I thought it would be the perfect way to add some interest to our very boxy dining room-my pattern interrupt.

All the moms at the mommy and me meetup looked so All the moms at the mommy and me meetup looked so amazing. I wondered what their secret was.

When was I going to bounce back like that?

Everyone was being vulnerable so when it was my turn I said, “I still can’t fit into my old jeans.”

One of the moms looked at me and said, “I just bought new jeans.”

I was shocked! She looked amazing!

I thought that if I bought jeans for my current “larger size” as in “not my ideal size,” it would mean I was settling for my current state that I didn’t want.

Then it hit me.

When you see yourself as worthy and do things that make you feel great-like new clothes that fit, your mind does something you’re not even aware of.

when your brain says, “I look cute” then you’re just going to continue to look better on a subconscious level. 

Why?

Your self image improves and when it does, you do things in alignment with a good self image like eating better or moving more or learning how to do your hair at its best!
