{happy weekend!}

I apologize to those of you who might be tired of hearing me blather on about spring in DC, but it really is just so beautiful this time of year I can’t help it!  My husband and I went for a walk in our neighborhood yesterday evening and I spotted some lilacs just starting to bloom, and earlier in the day I spotted some wisteria!  It’s early in the season for a lot of these flowers, but apparently everything is going to be early this year due to the relatively mild winter and I’m not exactly complaining.  I’m just trying to soak as much of it in while it lasts.  One of my favorite things to do during lilac season is to visit the Mount Vernon estate; it’s covered in the gorgeous (and fragrant) blossoms!  I’ll have to plan a trip soon, but in the meantime…

…a few links for your weekend!

This week on Oh So Beautiful Paper:

A big welcome to the newest Designer Rolodex members!

As usual, we have a fun cocktail coming up for you this afternoon, so check back a bit later for the recipe!  Oh, and speaking of cocktails – one of our recipes, the Oaxacan Sunrise, is a competition finalist!  If you’re over 21 and have a moment, we’d love it if you could vote for us!  Voting ends later today, but you can vote right here.  Thank you so much!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and I’ll see you back here on Monday!  xoxo

  1. We’re being completely spoiled by the weather here aren’t we? The neighborhood behind ours is lined in Cherry Blossoms so we’ve been enjoying them every night. Too bad it’s supposed to rain all weekend, so enjoy today!
