Nat’s Musings | Vol 10

May 4, 2023

As many of you know my IG account got hacked this week. Thank you to everyone who has emailed me and reached out. Since this person or bot has my account I can’t even see it or access it. So I do apologize for the spam and Dm’s some of ya’ll may be getting. Just know it is fake and not me. I am praying my account will be back up soon, however I have heard some horror stories of it taking forever. In the meantime I will still be posting here on my first baby, my blog! So keep checking here and definitely sign up for my newsletter HERE if you haven’t I will be sending that out as well with my favorites, finds and blog post links!

Since I shared a bunch of outfits yesterday I don’t have many to share here but have lots more fun stuff.

Mara Hoffman Dress | Love this dress I am in an XS runs way large. It also has a rope belt as well.

Little Jacks Tavern | Frances and I had a lunch date here and I always forget how good it is. They have a cute little patio where we sat outside and ate. I highly recommend the burger Frances got that, the Butterbean burger + Brussels and the Crudites.

Baguette Magic | This is one of my favorite little spots on James Island. I took Sterling here for a lunch date and had the EOC Sandwich which is a veggie sandwich and new to their menu. You know I love a veggie sandwich this was one had hummus, pickles, tomatoes, arugula, sunflower seeds and avocado.

Edison | Another James Island spot we love for date night. They just re did their menu and added new items and I highly recommend trying the Spring Gnocchi it was incredible.

New breakfast I am loving is Plain Greek Yogurt with berries, goji berries, and pumpkin seeds drizzled with honey.

Greek Tuna Salad one of my favorite go to lunches

All time favorite snack of salami layered with hummus, cucumber slices, cheese like white cheddar or manchego and topped with EBB seasoning.

Laundry Hamper – I bought this flexible laundry hamper and love it. I am tempted to order one for each of the kid’s rooms. Light weight and holds a ton and is flexible .

Stripe Sweater – I love that this lightweight sweater can be worn in Summer as it is sleeveless and linen. It looks so cute with high waisted jeans and shorts.

Watch Band – These Apple watch bands from Amazon are the best! They have so many good colors and are only $7. I ordered the bright green and royal blue to switch out my old ones.

Workout Tanks– I have really been loving Carrie Underwood’s line at Dick’s. These tanks are high neck and not fitted and just a nice fit.

Bikini – I am not a big bikini person but I bought this one last year in blue and just ordered it in black. I love that its higher waisted and nice coverage and fit.

Gold Bracelet Set | I featured these on my Mother’s Day Gift Guide and decided to treat myself and LOVE them! Under $100 for the set and perfect for stacking.

Bento Boxes | Ordered these silicone Bento Boxes for the kids lunches and they are awesome. A good size not too big or small and fit in their lunchboxes perfectly.

Free City Sweats | Late to the game on this line but love these sweats! Size up the run small.

R E A D I N G + W A T C H I N G

I just listened to the audio books of both Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton and loved both especially Paris Hiltons. I had no idea about her crazy experience when she was sent off to school. I highly recommend listening to both. I absolutely love listening to celebrity memoirs on audible as they read their own stories.

I also read When Breath Becomes Air. It was a really good read but so sad. It is reg story of a young neurosurgeon who gets diagnosed with lung cancer. Have the tissues handy it is sad.

We powered through Shrinking on Apple TV and loved it and now are watching the Morning Show and really liking it. I am so glad Shrinking is coming out with a season 2, it was funny and heart felt. Loved the cast as well, Harrison Ford and Jason Segel are great. The cast of The Morning Show is also incredible with Jennifer Aniston, Steve Carell, and Reese Witherspoon.
