We painted and painted all weekend for the kitchen cabinet reno and I am exhausted.
My whole body is aching.  Luckily, it is 80% done – we just have to finish the final proctive top coat, put the hardware back on, and put all the drawers and cabinets back in.  I’ll be sharing the final look when its done and I regain any energy.  I don’t know how Martha does it….. 
we DID finished the bathroom cabinets last weekend though
and this weekend I swapped out the HEEEE-dious hardware that it came with. 
 I couldn’t find my before photo, but in the picture on the left you can see the big leaf hardware that was on it.  
easy $5 change for simple new pulls. 
pulls from Home Depot by Martha Stewart 

I have been making Gwyneth’s Roasted Cauliflower with Chickpeas recipe at least once a week since getting her cookbook, and I really need to move on to something else.
But seriously – I’ll make this in advance and eat it for lunch the next day or a side with dinner.
It’s currently in the oven as I type for tomorrow….. 

I really want this mat for my workouts 🙂 
:: after this we’re getting pizza mat :: 

confession:
I already pre-ordered Kristin Cavallari’s book.
Sorry I’m not sorry.  She looks insane.  Pregnant, not pregnant, day after giving birth.
I think it comes out in 2 weeks or something like that. 


This old navy swimsuit is a perfect knock-off of the marysia bikinis that I will always lust after but never, ever throw down for.  dresses – sure.  bathing suit, I just can’t. 
:: scallop bikini :: 
order down a size for bottoms – they run large – and up a size for top.  
I did XS bottom and a S top. 
I also really like this cover-up and this cover-up for white options. 

One of my meal prep goals this week (I’ve somehow gotten very good at meal prepping for work the last two weeks and sticking to it) is to make a smoothie every morning to have and I’m switching it up with something new.
this Tone It Up Pineapple Kale Smoothie is prepped in the freezer right now and I’ll let you know if its any good . 
I couldn’t find unsweetened coconut at the grocery store, 
but I feel like I wont miss it anyway since I’m very hit or miss with coconut flavored anything. 

it’s the bachelor : women tell all tonight ! 
ahhhhhhh I’m as excited as Olivia displays in these psychotic faces! 
 the previews show olivia saying she was “bullied in the house”. ha. okay. 

also can’t wait to watch the twins get WAY too involved in Olivia and overly emotional and display the maturity of a 16 year old. 

we can only hope that everyone will have their crazy pants on.
 drinking game for the night :
drink every time Caila talks with a giant smile on her face about something that she shouldn’t be smiling about……. 
it’s like the opposite of Kardashian Syndrome, when one talks in a monotone voice about how excited they are about something or how much they love something/someone. 

alrighty.  that is all.
let’s go kick monday’s ass and get one day closer to the weekend!!
and this weekends St Paddy’s Day debauchery!!!! PAH REACH!

    Hey! I have enjoyed your blog – especially your refreshingly snarky "Coffee Talk" posts – for some time. I've never commented before, though. I have those same awful pulls in my kitchen. Please share where you found the new ones! Thanks in advance!

    • Taylor says: March 7, 2016 at 1:27 pm

      Hi thanks for reading!! I got them at Home Depot, they are Martha Stewart Brand!

      Thank you!

    I'm very interested in the cabinet reno… keep us posted!

  3. Stephanie Chalk says: March 14, 2016 at 12:00 pm

    Your cabinets look wonderful, isn't it an exhausting task though?! We recently painted ours too and it was not an easy task! Oh, Olivia! I can't wait for tonight! Xo, Stephanie

  • DIY this high end look for less! I'm sharing the 5 easy steps to disguise your air return cover and all the supplies to complete this project. My favorite part of this easy DIY how-to, is that tou can customize the look with paint color and different metal sheet patterns to match your home decor and aesthetic. I actually used leftover supplies from my DIY built-in shelf and desk in my home office to create this look. It helps elevate the space, adding a touch of elegance and a refined finish without breaking the bank. It was easy and affordable to create this custom look for less. Click to shop the DIY project supplies on Amazon. Note: I used scrap wood I had on hand for the project, but you can also pick up 1x2 wood planks from Amazon or a local hardware or craft store. #ad #Amazon #DIY
