JUNIOR YEAR 
I wish everyone a happy first day of school.
Lots of transitions this year making today feel bittersweet 
You can see on Charlie’s face, she is devastated her cuddle buddy, breakfast sharing bestie is about to leave her for the new school year.

Made these with Bay over the weekend and I know why they are referred to as “melt away”
They legit melt away AKA disappear.

Easter Sunday is this weekend. More importantly, Good Friday! Ha! I can FINALLY drink booze again! So watch out, mama’s getting buzzed. With a couple little hiccups in the last 46 days. Keep’n it real, the struggle is real.
Since I have so much extra time on my hands, I made the sweetest Easter cake for dessert last weekend. We had my 95 year old grandmother + her caregiver, Eda and my parents over for dinner after Palm Sunday service. And I served this sweet cake.
It’s semi-homemade. Semi-naked. Bunny ear cake!

Easter is next weekend peeps and I figured you might be interested in celebrating with a few extra goodies for the kiddos. Naturally, I put together a list of goodies xoxostacyb approved. Lots of cute little treats to perfect your children’s baskets.
A practical way of thinking about Easter baskets is to try to include things you NEED to buy for Spring anyway. Think swimsuits + flip flops + Spring or Summer clothes + sunglasses + fave sunscreen…etc. I also love to add fun things like sidewalk chalk, pool inflatables, or other outdoor toys (again, things we would eventually be buying anyway, but make it festive).

I kinda had a Mom fail this morning. You see, I’m known to be a Holiday Whore. Taking Holidays a little overboard is my thang. This year, not so much. Watching Instagram stories this morning made me feel like I failed. Not really! All the Leprechaun traps. Green toilet bowls. Foot prints. Festive snacks. I was THAT mom.
Honestly, I felt like my teenager was over all my over-the-top Holiday themed goodies. Turns out, she’s not. I think when you become accustomed to treats each Holiday, you actually look forward to them.
Thank god for Target Shipt. Ha! I had ALL THE THINGS green delivered to our doorstep to assembly St. Patrick’s Day green baskets. One for my girl and a couple more for our nephews.
Instantly I felt festive + happy AF! I LIVE for this stuff. And I can’t wait to drop off some Leprechaun cheer to my peeps.
I you too didn’t get all crazy this morning, don’t even trip. YOU ARE A GOOD MOM! A GREAT MOM! But, damn – social media sure can make you feel like you’re not for a hot one.
If you have a box of lucky charms. A stick of butter. And a bag of marshmallows. I got you!
