Happy Valentine's Day

Spent most of today relaxing around the house and doing laundry. Grabbed a latte and granola for a nice low-key breakfast with my man. My latte came out with a heart kind of like this one. Hope you enjoyed your day.

Winter Wonderland

I've been absent for a couple weeks. But, I swear, I have a good excuse. Who can be expected to blog regularly when you're living in a Christmas card?! I snapped this image on our girls weekend to Stowe, Vermont. Seriously, who lives like this?! Amazing! Lots of high points including haunted bridges, $4 pints, deep tissue massages, The Alchemist, Ben & Jerry's, Cider donuts and snowboarding Stowe. One major low...winter dry skin. Being a Southern California girl, I had no idea the lengths you east coast ladies go to. I mean, humidifiers in every room? The depths of winter requires serious skincare. So, here are a few of my favorites (and one from a friend).

Fend off winter chapped lips with Dr. Haschka's Lip Care Stick. Made of jojoba wax and shea butter, this stick is all natural. Contains no petroleum.

Kill crackling dry hands and feet with Malin + Goetz vitamin b5 body moisturizer. It's got a refreshing citrus scent to remind you of sunnier days.

Splurge on the triple oxygen treatment at Bliss Spa.

More to come from my trip...including a review of the spa at the Stowe Mountain Lodge.
