A hop skip and a jump to two weekends ago, we had some Texas company. I love having people in our home. It fills up our empty space and reminds me how great our friends are. Visits from our home state means trips to our favorite Saint Louis places... museums, restaurants, watering holes, and little joints that prove to our friends and family how successful this move has been, and perhaps some reminding on my part. 


In Central West End, there is the yummiest of taco joints. And being from Texas, I'm a little particular and slightly fussy when it comes to anything labeled with the words taco, nacho, or Mexican. But this little place hits the spot. Frankly, I could eat there every Saturday with no complaints. 


Come visit me soon and I'll take you to Gringo. xoxo

Another snow day means busy grocery stores, long lines, and endless pantry and closet rearranging. Loving this weather.

With snow on the ground and hot chocolate in our hands, we spent Saturday evening strolling around Garden Glow at the Missouri Botanical Gardens. It was one of the prettiest sights I've seen this December, a true winter wonderland with glow globes, a frosted forest, and a journey under the twinkling tunnel. . Chilly fingers and icey noses aside, Mark and I both agreed it was the perfect night to spend outside looking at lights. I really love this time of the year. 

happy glowing lovelies. xoxo

Christmas time is upon us and I am loving it here in Saint Louis. Morning snow, brunch, and an afternoon spent in historic Saint Charles. Simply lovely.

Saint Louis Zoo...

I love zoos. And I am one hundred percent smitten with the Saint Louis Zoo. A huge animal wonderland filled with hours of merriment. From wandering around Historical Hill with it's gorgeous architecture from the 1920's, to getting slightly lost in River's Edge looking for the rhinos. We walked around for five hours watching all the animals play, socialize, and hide from the heat and crowds. I could have spent all day at Sea Lion Landing watching those sweet mammals bobbling around in the water. Amidst the sea lions and elephants is the original Flight Cage, a beautifully constructed walk-through showcase of birds from the 1904 World's Fair and the beginning of the Saint Louis Zoo. I am in love. Happy day my friends! xoxo. Arianna

We've been celebrating today by watching the Veiled Prophet Parade right outside our front door. We started on the street then headed back up to watch the remaining floats and balloons march past our apartment window. Now for air shows, music, and a weekend of fireworks. 

Happy Fourth of July! xoxo
