On My Radar

It's been another crazy week at our house. H woke up Saturday morning with a low-grade fever and cough that worsened throughout the day, so we spent the evening hanging out at the ER. Fun times. The doc on duty diagnosed it as croup, so the only Rx was lots of rest and popsicles. Of course, when a babe is sick, mama gets very little rest, so I've been running on empty. Lots of big projects and fast deadlines at work didn't help much, either. But H is feeling better, so that's really all that matters.

Although I haven't had time to do much other than wipe noses and snuggle a little boy this week, I wanted to share a few things on my radar...

1. Dhurrie Chair

 

 Traditional shape + non-traditional fabric = my favorite look. Thank you, Anthropologie, for always providing plenty of  items for my lust list.

2. Shredded Kale & Brussel Sprout Salad via Just a Taste

I've hopped on the kale bandwagon big time. Smoothies, chips, soups, you name it. This salad looks super easy, super tasty, and within my limited kitchen skills... God, please don't let me chop off a(nother) knuckle.

3. Gap Sateen Fit & Flare Dress

This looks like such a perfect LBD. So crisp with that kicky pleat! I could easily wear it to work with a cardigan, or dress it up with heeled sandals and some pretty jewelry (like this) for weddings/parties. We have two weddings coming up this spring (H is the ring bearer in both, and yes, I am nervous), so this could be an option for rehearsal dinners or receptions. It's gotten mixed reviews online as to fit, so I know I'll have to go to a brick & mortar to buy. Let's just hope it's still in stock once the quarantine on our house is lifted.

4. GardenFort

H is totally into forts right now, so this would be fun for spring/summer. It also looks like the perfect place for mama to hide out with a nice glass of vino.

5. Monogrammed Converse All Stars

My Pinterest is littered with pics of effortlessly cool chicks in Chucks. I'm still not sure I can pull them off, but if I get brave enough to try it, you better believe I'm going to monogram the sh*t out of them.

I'm off to catch up on work and the snot dripping out of a little nose. Kleenex and the Inmans say bless you! XOXO
