May Favorites ~ 2022
Good Morning,
I am still dreaming about my visit to the Cake Bake shop yesterday. I will be sure to share photos soon! I think I love these decorations the most. She decorated the shop in swans and roses. Need I say more?
Now I know I am a little late but let’s dive right into my favorites for the month of May….
First on my list is something that I stumbled on at the store. I think that I have shared this yogurt before called Oui. I LOVE this yogurt! It is so delicious and now they have a chocolate and vanilla version! Awww, it has shaved chocolate flakes in it with the creamy yogurt. It is truly a special treat. I hope you try it!

Second on the list is this bathtub caddy. I have been wanting one for a while so I decided to give this a try. It works great and has a little holder for your glass of wine. Let me know if you use a bathroom caddy. I think I may also try to order a wooden one. I will let you know!
Third on the list is my new dress coverup for my swimsuit. I am a very modest person when it comes to swimwear and I always wear a one-piece but I also love a craftan or dress to wear over my swimsuit especially if I am walking from place to place. I found this one on Amazon and ordered it right away!
The fourth is my Mother’s Day gift from my husband! I keep a “wishlist” photo gallery on my phone and he took a peek at it. This ring was on it so he ordered it. It’s the new embellished green teardrop ring from Nicola Bathie. It’s stunning! I took it to the jewelry store to ask about resizing and Ken who helps me all the time went on and on about how beautiful it was. It made me smile.

Fifth is this fun but chic tray table. My nightstand is a tad bit too small. I need a little more table space for my books and notes. When I get in bed I like to read and sometimes I may have an idea for the blog or I need to research some things so having this extra little table beside my bed has been great for note taking and books!
The sixth was my azalea bush that we purchased from the Biltmore about 3 years ago! It bloomed so beautifully this year and was a treat to look at while we sat on the porch.
Seventh is my tiffany blue beach cruiser. My husband purchased this bike for me about 5 years ago and I adore it! I ride it every year in my dresses. I can’t find my particular cruiser because it sold out years ago but I found this one and this one.

The eighth has been this year peony season. You guys know that I am always excited when this season comes around. I will do a separate blog post with my visit to the peony festival and my peonies that grew in the front yard!
Ninth was my recent antique shopping visit. I have been doing way too much antiquing and need to slow down! But my recent finds have been sensational! I love every piece and love how they are adding substance and beauty to my home.
Well I hope you all enjoyed my favorites for the month of May. This month went by so fast to me. Lauren’s last day of school was last week and it hit me that she is a senior this year! A SENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL! I can’t believe it. This is going to be a busy year as we gear up for college, prom, and graduation. I am praying for a wonderful year for her!
I almost forgot about this wonderful home tour! I just found this channel. I hope you enjoy it.
Also we have another new arrival for the boutique. This is the Daphne Flutter Dress. It’s gorgeous! I wish I could order it in plus size. I would have for me! But I hope you all enjoy the new arrivals and don’t forget to add the Jasmine Pearl Brooch. It’s so pretty!
Enjoy!

I came across Schumacher video a few days ago with Cathy Kincaid and I just fell in love with it. I’ve also been enjoying Linda Smith Davis youtube channel New England Fine Living. Check her out Mrs Shockley. Sometimes I miss living in Massachusetts. It’s my home, born and raised. I’ve been in GA longer than I lived at home. I’m feeling pulled to go back to New England. I’m not sure why but I think I need to visit. I haven’t been home since my folks passed away, so maybe it’s time. Maybe I need to reconnect to my roots.
Loving that bath tray and the little tray table. Your Lauren is going to be a senior. How exciting. She is grown up now. That’s good news. That tear just flies by. Sometimes I feel like I was just a senior and then I do the math and say what happened and how did it happen that fast? It doesn’t seem like it. Congratulations that’s a milestone even for parents???
I just loved the video as well. I checked on Amazon to see if Cathy had any books and she does! I will be ordering that soon as well. I have been following Linda for about 2 years. I do enjoy her channel especially when she goes antiquing. Oh it’s like a feast for your eyes!
I would love to visit Massachusetts. You may need to take a small visit. Go look around visit some antique stores! Sounds like a good trip to enjoy!
