Happy weekend! How are you all doing? We’ve been enjoying spring — despite the surprise snow — so I needed this bright rainbow of fruit to cheer things up.
This weekend we’re laying low as we prepare to travel. We also have one of my closest friends’ birthday to celebrate. I’m still figuring out the best way to fly with the kids.
Also: The Pretty Dish book tour begins this week. I’ll be in Boston on Wednesday and in New York City next weekend. Check the schedule of events for details, and stop back tomorrow for tips on The Pretty Dish meal prep.
p.s. I posted a long, rambly update about Emilia at five months — it’s full of little life moments and milestones.
Wishing you a fabulous weekend! xoxo
