Something I ask myself every Sunday evening is how Something I ask myself every Sunday evening is how am I going thrive this week?  It is so easy to get bogged down in the day to day. The to do list and the kids needs and my businesses needs and on and on. Add on the heaviness that is our world right now and it can feel like all you are trying to do is survive. But I don’t want to just survive. I don’t want to be looking forward to the weekend each and every week. I want to look for a way to thrive where I am.  Ok, so how do we do that?  I’m going to give you three intentions I’m taking into the week. 1️⃣ I will find excitement and fulfillment in the mundane tasks or difficult situations. 2️⃣ I intended to do my best each day to achieve the goals I have set for the day. 3️⃣ I will do my best to lead by example and embrace challenges I face with a calm mind. Have a wonderful week.

Sunday Skim · April 1, 2018

The Sunday Skim – Spring 2018 – Thirteen

Welcome to the Sunday Skim.  Your weekly recap of all things fashion, family, food and drink, health, news, social, lifestyle, home and beauty.  Grab your coffee and enjoy!

Happy Easter from our family to yours…

 

Fashion…  It’s Easter Sunday and I am ready with my chiffon and floral and I have an Easter hat.  Also, it is now socially appropriate to wear white, linen and seer sucker although most of us stopped abiding by the white rule a long time ago.  You know me and fashion rules though…  I don’t have many but I do wait to wear linen until after Easter.

Family…  Spring Break started Friday.  I put this list up earlier in the week of things to do in case you missed it.

Food and Drink…  I am making strawberry shortcake today for dessert.  This is what I am basing my recipe off of.  It’s not super sweet because of all of the honey but it is so delicious so far.

Health…  Are you looking for some new ideas for side dishes?  I love these sweet potatoes and they are a favorite of the whole family.

News…  Check this Japanese fad out…  I may try it with the boys this week.

Social…  I just received approval for my media passes to get the scoop on French Quarter Festival.  If you want all the updates follow them on Facebook here.

Lifestyle…  The last few times we have had people over to the house for a party we have set up a food bar.  It’s easy and fun and as the host you can make the main item and then have your guests bring the extras.  Most recently we did a taco bar for one of the Saints games and it was a big hit.  Here are some ideas for other food bar you could create.

Home…  I love decorating my home.  If I had the ability to go back to school for anything it would be interior design school.  One of my favorite things to pick out is paint color.  I have changed the paint colors in my home more times than I can count because it is such an easy way to change up a room.  I really like looking at whole house painting schemes like this one on pinterest.  It’s definitely an easy way to coordinate your home and not have to second guess your paint choices.

Beauty…  So I learned a new trick a few weeks ago that I thought I would share.  I feel like in the summer I shave my legs and then they need to be shaved again the next day.  I read an article that recommended exfoliating, shaving, exfoliating, shaving a second time and then using a moisturizer when you get out of the shower.  I can’t tell you what a difference exfoliating and shaving twice makes.

Have a lovely Easter with your friends and family.  I hope that it is restful and relaxing and fun…

XO,

Tippy

    Hi Tiffany! Happy Easter! I just wanted to drop by and say that I’m soooo happy your family likes my Roasted Garlic Butter Mashed Sweet Potatoes. They’re a favorite around here, too!
    I am totally going to have to try your shaving trick this Spring. I too struggle with the problem of shaving and then feeling like it hardly lasts a day!

About Me
I'm Tiffany. Although some of my favorite people call me Tippy. My favorite color is pattern. Seriously, I've never met a pattern I didn't like. My style is as bold as my personality and you should never trust my hair color. I am all about size inclusive style on a Nordstrom Sale budget.
