DECORATING Kitchen Spring Decor Ideas

// yellow dress //

How are we all doing with the time change?

Just between us?

Springing forward is always a little challenging for me.

When I look at a clock?

My mind automatically subtracts an hour.

It’s like I feel that the clock is trying to put one over on me and I’m not going to be fooled and so I’m all out of sorts until finally, officially, wearily…

….I accept that we’ve all moved an hour forward.

But I digress.

That is SO NOT even what I wanted to discuss today.

I wanted to share my kitchen island all decorated for spring.

Oh, and tell you this very important thing.

Did you know that you are a rock star?

Truly.

Did you look around to see if I typed that for you?

Yes, my wonderful, amazing, incredible friend.

I’m talking to YOU—the one with the coffee mug.

Or the hot tea.

Or the breakfast cereal bowl.

I couldn’t let another minute pass without letting you know of your super star status.

You probably hear that all the time.

But today, I wanted to be the first to tell you.

You see….I know.

I know that….that I know….that I know.

There is something that you can do that is off-the-charts.

Something amazing.

Something incredible.

And I know that you don’t want to brag and that you probably don’t even realize how special you truly are, so I just wanted to remind you.

Because that’s what friends of rock stars do.

Maybe you can cook the best sweet potato casserole or paint a room in a day or grow a vegetable garden that would make P. Allen Smith sit up and take notice or find the perfect piece of brown toile dinnerware at a yard sale for only .50 or play the banjo with your toes.

Or maybe you are the best listener.

Or the best friend anyone could ever have.

Actually, I’m a little in awe of you.

Yes….you….the baker or.the shopper or the gardener or the listener and the incredible friend.

I’m in awe of your amazing listening skills and your humor and your intelligence and your ability to greet each day with a smile.

And I am blessed.

Today.

Because today you are here.

And for just a moment, in the middle of this harried and hectic life that we are all so busy living, got to spend a little time with a rock star….

….just like you.

edited to add: upon popular request, I added this adorable yellow dress to the post. I have it in the blue, too. It’s affordable and so comfortable and it’s cut really well so it’s so flattering.

You can see the dress here.

You can see the shoes here.

And you can shop tons more spring fashion finds like this here.

PS This post is dedicated my daughters and their overwhelming, intimidating, mind boggling, but going-to-be-off-the-charts-amazing life decisions they are in the middle of making with graduation just around the corner.

PPS And just in case you were wondering, according to my kitchen? It’s spring here.
