I reading a book on the beach, sipping pink champagne, cabbage roses, French macarons, bubble tea, anything with ruffles, frozen salted caramel hot chocolate, vintage lace, New York City, mystery stories, playing the piano, ethnic foods or anything with a little spice, Aruba’s silky sand, classic movies, autumn leaves, witnessing a proposal, my mom’s hugs, family picnics, the smell of cookies baking, Bikram yoga and my grandmother’s pearls.

I a thoughtful note, sunshine, soft flowers, the color white, going home in July, seltzer, my daily dose of sweat, veggies, my sister’s dancing, cotton, sunscreen + swimmers, lululemon, dark chocolate with sea salt, busting Col. Mustard, coconut, nerds – especially cute ones, college football, rainy days, pretty earrings, Paper-Source, sweet kisses, cooking without a recipe, Erica Barry’s house in the Hamptons, the smell of freshly mowed grass, frothy milk, holidays with the fam, Taylor Swift and her “blind optimism.”
