Spring is in the Air

Happy Friday, gang! We are cruising through March at breakneck speed-we’re already halfway through! St. Patrick’s Day is Sunday, and if you missed our nod towards St. Paddy’s Day, check the post out here. This week, I started spring cleaning outside and in, and I have a brand-spanking new roof. I chose black shingles to match the exterior to a T. I had the driveways, sidewalk, and patios power-washed, so the outside areas are coming together. I must admit I love spring when the earth awakens from its winter slumber, the earth renews, and nature comes alive.

TL;DR

Navy Linen Shirt

(J. Crew)

Today, Kelly and I are kicking off the weekend with a delicious cocktail, Bitter French, and a yummy grilled cheese sandwich. I slipped into a pair of high-waisted white denim from Talbots and a navy blue linen shirt from J. Crew.

Navy and white are a great spring and summer color combo. It’s crisp and clean. I am a big fan of J. Crew’s linen blouses, shorts, and pants. I spotted this linen maxi dress, perfect for a warm-weather getaway.

Ponte Pintuck Pants

(Quince)

I just love how ponte skinny pants can be dressed up or down, and everything in between. Today I went for a sporty spring look with Gola Sneakers from Talbots and a striped tee from J.Crew.

The pants I am wearing are actually from Vince. Still, the version from Quince is pretty much identical – a perfect dupe, with a quality of material and craftsmanship that is made to last.

Bitter French

The Bitter French is a take on the classic French 75, which is a citrusy champagne cocktail. This version gets a little bitterness from the Campari, which is our favorite Aperitif. So this combination was sure to be a winner with us! It’s a light, perfectly pink spring cocktail.

Grilled Cheese with Scallions and Mushrooms

This amped-up grilled cheese takes spring onions or scallions and sautés them with mushrooms and garlic to create a savory, delicious addition to the nutty Fontina cheese and thick-sliced Italian bread.

Happy Friday!

Ollie, Oscar, Kelly and I wish you a lovely weekend!
