What a week! Thank you all for the birthday love. This week flew by but it was a great one. Paul and I are headed to a friends wedding on the cape for the weekend while Roswelle is with Gigi & Pops! :)
One of the first things I did when I moved to Boston almost 5 years ago was find a good hairstylist for my blonde southern hair. Recommended by a coworker, I found CeCe in the city and I have been going to her since the beginning. She is a stylish, sweet, italian woman that shows me love in the form of caring conversation and a great blowout. She also manages to give me a color, wash, cut and blowdry in exactly two hours. This is an important factor when trying to fit in a hair appointment with your busy schedule. I can arrange a sitter for Roswelle during the week and avoid anxiously wondering if I will be at the hair salon for 5+ hours!! If you are a fellow blonde in Boston, or just someone looking for a good hairstylist in general, she is the one I recommend! Her info: cece2323@gmail.com or (617) 877-8288.
Have you ever looked up a recipe based on what you have on hand already? I did yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome. I had shrimp in the freezer and feta cheese in the fridge which lead me to this recipe. It wound up being a great last minute appetizer to take over to a girlfriend's last night!

To have wrinkle free linens on your bed, all you need is a simple spray bottle of water. I watched "how to make the perfect bed" by Pottery Barn and learned the trick from them. You just spray and smooth. That specific video is no longer available but there are many other tutorials here. If you want to go the extra step for freshness, infuse the water with a sprig of lavender.

My girlfriend, Meredith, is in the trenches with a teething baby. After 2 weeks of sleepless night and lots of tears for both baby and mom, her pediatrician recommended Gripe Water. Thankfully, it actually worked and they are headed into their second day of good sleeping and more giggles. She is also using Hyland's Baby teething tablets. I thought I would share the good news!
