Starting our Day + Plums in Balsamic Syrup

We’ve been busy during these last couple of weeks, working, organizing, cleaning and re-organizing our home. This weekend I finally bought myself a {much needed} cabinet, and now I can finally have all my 'precious' little things stored and organized.

I’ve also started sewing! Yes, that’s something that I’ve wanted to do for a while but I didn’t have the time and inspiration to do it. I started making linen napkins this week and I finished the last one last night. {I will show you pictures of this soon}

And morning breakfasts {like this one}have been 'the great motivation' to wake up earlier than usual!Making our mornings more enjoyable, giving us the energy and freshness needed to start our day with a smile.

Hope you're enjoying your week!
