april whizzed by, punctuated with intensity, a slow down, a tsunami of emotions and a return to some important routines.

my highlights:

• a few incredible cyclebar classes- 30 minute sprints that took my breath away -literally- but were exactly what I needed in the moment.
• extended coffee breaks with hot, earl grey tea and perfect, at-home matcha lattes
• Easter Sunday at HT, my first in 4 years and just as lovely, exhausting and fulfilling as the last. following a very tough few weeks for my family, it was such a necessarily sweet celebration.
• flowers, inside and outside, harbingering warm weather is barreling towards us (even as I type under RH faux fur & Uggs). my hydrangeas are showing off lush green leaves; a single, snowy white peony threatening to unfurl; and mounds of honeysuckle stealing the show.
• sunsets pushing further and further into the evening, previewing the sunny 8 pms of June & July.
• faith, optimism, romance- anything beyond the despair that has been the dark cloud of our daily lives for too long.

a smattering of images that evoke the above and make me look joyfully to the months ahead. PDA, a shift, NYC fire escapes, saturated feminine colors, let’s hit the road- UK style, a red lip, a good-looking guy, a woman unafraid to stare right at you.

how you doing? xx
