I hope every enjoyed their long weekend!
We’ve been working like crazy around the house redoing a few rooms and since the thrift shops were all 1/2 off for the holiday, I spent quite a bit of time pounding the pavement to find the best deals. I’m so excited to share with you the major changes we made to the nursery, Fox’s room, and the playroom!’
In the meantime, I couldn’t keep you in the dark about this fresh recipe we concocted in the kitchen earlier today.
We made a fresh salad with a Blueberry Basil Vinaigrette! Our entire kitchen smelled like a garden.
10/10 would make again!

If you prefer a smoother texture, you can strain the vinaigrette through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any remaining solids. This step is optional and depends on your preference.
