Happy Feet.

When the weather is as lovely as it was in Santa Cruz this past weekend, a large chunk of time is spent outdoors walking Ziggy. Whether it be the beach or a miles long adventure to Starbucks, most of our time is spent on foot {or paws}. So when my mom and I came across an establishment dedicated solely to foot massages, we had to inquire within. Soon we found ourselves in a dark movie theater-type room full of padded shayz lounges. Not only did I experience the foot massage of a lifetime, they hit all other pressure points - hands, shoulders, back, arms and face..?   Ok, the face part was a little awkward, but all-in-all a pretty interesting experience.

I'd go back. They have a punch card.

Just Doing What We Do.

It's no secret, I'm a BIG {fan of pretending to be a} foodie (see here, here and here). For those who know me well, know that when I find something I like - I'm pretty much obsessed (see you later today, @cremebruleecart). My mom is the exact same way, so when we arrived at the Rock Room for a drink before dinner to find the best table available, we quickly forgot about our dinner plans and planted ourselves in the 2 cozy chairs right in front of the fire place. Talking, laughing, people watching, drinking wine over some chevre and baby beets - just doing what we do.

Plus, I have a certain affinity towards places with yellow rose stain glass.

The weather this last weekend was outstanding  in Santa Cruz and exactly what I needed to recharge for another busy week. Evidently, I was so inspired, even my outfit couldn't hide it. Then again, a weekend spent at the beach house is never one without some sort of exciting adventure.

They should issue a warning with this outfit.

Parlez-Vous OPI?

Home, after an awesome weekend in Santa Cruz with my mom and Ziggy; the weather was amazing. And there is SO much more to come, but until then I'll leave you with the color that got me through the weekend - I'm loving this luscious purple.

All I can say is, I'm a lucky girl to have such a great mom. Everytime I thought this week couldn't get any longer, an email would pop up in my inbox containing a photo with cute message. These emails always bring a smile to my face. so I'm sharing (again and again); keep in mind, all captions are written by my lovely mother.
