{ spring cleaning }

this months gorgeous california weather ( and inspiration from Pinterest ) has me pretty-ing up our little house. 


 just yesterday it started feeling like winter.

no rain. no snow. just cold.

so this morning with a latte and leg warmers, I continued my "spring cleaning". 

don't get me wrong... there is PLENTY more to do but it feels nice to tackle some problem areas : )


my laundry room never looks like this- feels so refreshing!


i am a lover of espresso. seriously. i LOVE it a little too much.

while cleaning out the coffee drawer, i realized that i need to start labeling my beans so they don't go to waste. the bowl in the background is overflowing with "lost" coffee and is headed to the compost pile.

the oh-so cute orange coffee cozy was given to me by my sister in-law, Elizabeth 
who new holding a latte could be this pretty!!

... now if only this wild man will let his mama get to work.

have a great day, friends!

  1. Totally jealous of your spring cleaning! The labeling of the coffee jars is a great idea! How do you keep from braking the glass?!! :)

  2. How fun! I am in a spring cleaning kick as well...and I NEED a cute jar like yours for my laundry soap. So much nicer than the trader joe's box. :)
