Cheers To Each New Day
happy monday gang!
I hope you are ready for another week. An important one because it is one week closer to spring! While we're waiting however I'm celebrating each new day!
One of the things I love to do is celebrate each day and the way I do that is each evening (well most of them) I make a nice meal and make a big deal about the ritual of cooking and eating. I love to cook so I usually put on music and pour a glass of wine. I try to dress for the occasion (meaning getting out of exercise or house cleaning clothes) and set a table and think about how grateful I am for life, food and home.
This is not new, I have done it most of my adult life. It comes somewhat from my parents and grandparents always pointing out the importance of meals and family time. I don't always set up our meals in the dinning room or kitchen, sometimes it's on the patio, in the living room or even on a tray. But the sentiment it the same, to celebrate the day.
I usually wear jeans and a fun top when cooking.
But I have often worn, maxi dresses, casual dresses, shorts, slacks or pretty lounge wear. Just something nice that seems fitting for celebrating the day knowing no matter what I achieved (or didn't) I put my all into it as I try to do everyday.
My kids will tell you that dancing in the kitchen while I'm cooking may or may not happen! Ha Ha! A girls gotta get her cardio in when she can!
For this look I am wearing jeans from Express, a top from Ross and Marc Fisher platforms. I love the whole retro look of these jeans and top. Kind of a 50s or early 60s look I think. I added big hoop earrings for jewelry and my outfit was complete.
As always, thanks for stopping by!
Peace!
