Ever since my mom (aka Fashionistamama) gave me this spoon ring when I was in Elementary School, I have had a love for spoon related baubles:

I wore this ring every.single.day for more than 10 years (hence its destroyed appearance), so imagine my excitement when I found Goorsend Jewelry on Etsy who sells an abundance of flatware jewelry.
Not only are these items beautiful, but they are tres affordable! Most items are under $20. I am thinking about this ring to replace my much loved vintage ring from my mom:
The designer/architect in me has fallen in l.o.v.e with these beauties. Check ‘em out for yourself and let me know what you think!

HAPPY EASTER! Hope everyone has had a wonderful day!
First, the Easter Bunny came to see me and the boys:
I got all my fave candies, Reese Eggs, Lindt Balls, Andes, and Butterscotch. And my hubby, eh hem, I mean the Easter Bunny knows me too well because he brought me an Express and Panera gift card!

Cooper got Busy Bones, his favorite:

And Tilly (Tillman) got Catnip toys and some Easter dinner (wet cat food):

Hubby also got goodies, but I didn’t get a photo. The highlight were the blue PEEPS that he just downed FIVE of!
Then I put on my Easter Dress and we headed to church (Elevation):


What:
Dress: Vintage, via NikitaJade on Etsy
Shoes: Enzo ($10 at DSW)
Earrings: Boutique (can you tell these are my fave?)
Sunnies: Target
Belt: F21
Also added a white cardigan before church because I am always cold!
After a great service, we headed in search of some good ‘ole southern cooking, in true Easter fashion
If it were more than just the two of us, I would cook a nice dinner, but Charlotte Cafe definitely fit the bill for what we were cravin’

I don’t eat much meat, so I went straight for the veggie platter. Mac and Cheese (possibly my all-time favorite food), Candied yams, Mashed Taters, Cornbread and THE.BEST. Green Beans EVER. Normally I don’t eat such heavy food, esp. for lunch, but it’s a special occasion
I also went for the Nanner Pudding, cause really what southern gal can resist Nanner Pudding?!
It has been a wonderful Easter Sunday and I am so thankful to be blessed with such a wonderful life right now. Wishing you and your families a fabulous Easter!
