I wore this dress to see Corinne Bailey Rae in concert at the House of Blues on my birthday! I accessorized with a belt, dangling earrings, a few bangles, and a mint rose ring. Check it out on Forever 21's website!

Blueberry Tea Cake

I baked a lovely blueberry tea cake from the Sono Baking Company Cookbook. Baking was a much needed relief to get my mind off other things. There is nothing like baking to bring you joy! It is ideal for breakfast, and I know my siblings will definitely be devouring it in the AM.

I Love Target!

Almost everytime I go into target, I buy something...pajamas, earrings, a purse, a skirt, a dress, the list goes on and on. Target sparks my shopaholic tendencies. Like today, I bought a cute pajama set for $7 and two pajama shorts each $5 (one for me and one for my sister). The other day I bought a cute Mossimo skirt for $9.98 and a Converse dress for $12.48. I love going through the 30% and 50% sale racks! If you're looking for cute things at a great price, head to Target!

Sweet Thoughts

Are you happy? If you're not, go after what truly makes you happy. Don't settle for average. It just won't work. Do what is best for you, that inspires you to be you and puts a twinkle in your eyes. Pursue the gifts and graces God has placed within you. Work it out boldly and let your light shine.


Do you keep putting things off that you could definitely do right about now if you kept a clear focus? I couldn't agree more! Sometimes, I wonder what I am doing...I could have fit in some cake decorating time today if I only stayed off facebook lol. It happens....just one of those days, but time is of the essence. Wishing time would go sloooowerrrrrrrrrrrrrr though. I find that making a list helps and set up the tasks in order of significance. If you feel a distraction coming on, shut the computer down, whatever it takes to do what you need to do. Procrastination is a troublemaker!

Just wanted to share some sweet thoughts. May they keep you pressing on.
