Goodnight Moon

My ode to lavender, you bring me calmness, peace and harmony to end my day.

You are a treat for my senses, as well as my body & spirit.

 Ahhh… Lavender… it’s my wonder herb!

Filled with powerful antiseptic properties to help fight bacteria, heal wounds, reduce fever & upset stomach to name a few. It’s more commonly known for its calming effect on both mind and body, helps to relax muscle spasms, anxiety and even insomnia… now that’s magical!

 There is nothing like capping off you day with a relaxing bath filled with lavender essential oil & aroma-therapeutic mineral bath. Its relaxation in a tub! Tune on Nora Jones Pandora station and fill you mug with sleepytime tea or a glass of vino… whatever floats your bath 😉

I love making lavender spray for my bedroom. Its so easy! Just add part water & lavender essential oil to a spray bottle, you can find it at your local whole foods bath & body section. Once you mix, spritz all over pillows/ sheets and face. It’s the perfect bedtime cocktail.

Sleep tight,

Denver CO: Highlands

We stayed in CO for 2 nights with Baileys family who took hospitality to a new level. They were so excited to have her and you could tell from the first nights dinner, to the family BBQ planned to the list of places we should plug into our GPS and explore downtown and the highlands which was a oh so chic version of what I would maybe compare to South End in Boston. It was made up of the most adorable consignment shops, jewelry boutiques and even a card store with precious little prints.

One boutique in particular caught my eye called KISMET – they had their manifesto hung from the wall behind the register and the most fabulous displays I have ever seen, like this one below!

Not to mention they ask all customers if they want to round up their purchase to go to the charity of the month and they match that! How great!!!!
