Thoughts of the Week


This gorgeous flower cake deserves its own party.

Some home office inspiration.

Is there a sweeter flower than a sweet pea?

So many popsicles, so little time.

Rice and fruit: who knew?

I just love a good hotel.

I've come across some cute mobiles, but this may be the one.

And please send your water photos my way!

I've hit the 32-week mark in pregnancy. It seems crazy how this pregnancy has flown by. Despite things being so hectic here (or because of that), Jonah and I decided to book a babymoon getaway to Napa Valley in a couple weeks. Jonah has agreed to drink my share of wine. Ashley of Hither & Thither has some great tips -- she traveled there while pregnant too -- but if you've got any favorites, send them my way! Hope you have a great weekend!

  3. Hi Natalie! How exciting that you're getting so close to meeting your baby boy!

    I grew up in St. Helena so I love sharing my favorites with visitors. You picked a great place to get away for a few days ;-)

    Restaurants:
    -Farmstead, hands down my favorite restaurant in the valley, tasting room on site as well
    -Mustard's Grill, Napa Valley classic by Cindy Pawlcyn
    -Cook, local's favorite in St. Helena
    -Solage, beautiful outdoor space
    -Gott's Roadside, the best burgers and milkshakes!

    Wineries:
    -Alpha Omega
    -Cakebread (call ahead for a reservation for a great tour)
    -Orin Swift

    Oxbow market in Napa is also fun to wander around, great place to pick up picnic supplies or a fun treat, also has options for lunch/dinner.

    My favorite towns are Yountville and St. Helena, St. Helena has a bit more in terms of shopping, but both are great for wandering around.

    Let me know if you have any other questions or are looking for specific recommendations!
