Simple Sunday Things that make me happy:

1. My new iPhone case

My new iPhone case

I picked it up when I went to the mall

 

Previously, I had a plum-colored case on my iPhone but the white one is so much easier to see when my phone is buried in the depths of my purse.

My new iPhone casePlus I just think the white is cool looking.  Something Swatch Watch and all 80s vibey to me.  I had quite the Swatch collection back in the day.

And I also applied a screen protector that’s white

My new iPhone caseI really wish that I could have gotten a white iPhone when I replaced mine after mine was stolen just a couple weeks after I originally bought it, but the white ones were not out yet.  By a week.  Darn!

I used my jelly bean picture as my home screen background

2. Bombshell Summer that I picked up

Bombshell SummerLove.It.  If you like Bombshell, get the Summer Bombshell.  And if you don’t have either or have no idea what they smell like, you must try it.  Just trust me.

It’s one of those seasonal scents that they may or may not be keeping around.   <– Nothing like a little seaonally-induced buying pressure.

3. Mangoes

And now, I am off to run errand mania and continue packing and getting things set up on the homefront for Scott and Skylar while I’m gone on my trip!

  1. I love the white ones too! But they’re like 100 euros more expensive than the black ones?! Crazy! But, if i had the money I totally would! :)

    1. didnt even know that but would have paid it anyway. It wasnt even out (boo!) by a week when i was replacing mine.

  2. I love your simple posts!!! I picked up an Eggplant Purple case for my Blackberry yesterday and fell in love! My phone is white and with the purple it looks HAWT now :) Im crazy like this…I know ;)

    I also loved the simple day I had today just relaxing at the park, eating healthy foods and getting some work done.

    Have a fab night!
    xxoo

  3. Best start to my Sunday in a long time: getting up early to take a walk on the beach and watch the sun rise. It’s amazing how nature manages to be so simple yet so complex.

  4. Love those orchids….sweet post. Congrats on your new phone! I am a huge fan of white everything. The rest of my world is so bright I need relief sometimes ;) Will check out your post at Angela’s….

    1. phone is the same but got a white case. that way when I am busy drinking coffee with you, I dont have to look too hard to find it. the white just POPS!

      how i wish you were gonna be at F & L with me!!

  5. ohmygoodness I love jelly beans! And now I want some, lol. What simple thing made my day today? When I told Jelly Bean to get her pajamas on and she put one of her big brother’s huge shirts on. I love it when toddlers dress themselves – hilarious!

  6. Just wanted to pop up and say hi and that I’m so psyched you’re going to CO. You’ll love it there! We’ll miss each other by a few days, as I’m heading that way soon myself. Have a blast and ttys.

  7. Oh my goodness! Skylar is just the most adorable ever, but I am sure that you already know that. I love going to the farmers market on Sunday. Sure fire way to make me happy (:

  8. Simple Sunday Things: browsing iTunes and creating a yoga playlist, taking a walk through the city and petting a dog

  9. Fun jellybean pictures! My home screen is the lake at the camp I volunteer at. It makes me happy because it’s beautiful but also reminds me what’s important!

    My favorite recent find was a banana republic dress to wear in Vegas next week! I paid 34 dollars and it was originally 130!

  10. I made your Vegan GF Peanut Butter Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies today and they came out delicious! I never knew that brown sugar could have such a great caramel effect. Simple things that have made me happy include nice evening walks, my pet bunny, outdoor runs, canned soup, and laying out by the pool!

  11. I feel the same way about my iPhone cover!! The purple just gets lost in my black purse. I almost bought a really adorable hot pink polka dotted one at the Apple store last weekend, but it was Kate Spade and $35…which I didn’t even realize until I fell in love with it. Figures, I have expensive taste!

    1. well don’t feel bad about $35 for a Kate Spade. The one I got was from one of those mall kiosks and he wanted $27.99 + tax. And the 1 screen protector was 10 bucks. I asked for a discount b/c it was just a lame kiosk and he gave me a whopping $4 off.

  12. I need to make your cookie dough recipe. They look so good.

    I also love your jelly bean background. Too cute!!

    1. yes there’s one about 6 blocks away. I pass it daily. I cannot do fro-yo. It gives me a horrible!!!! stomach ache :(

  13. Simple things that have made me happy: taking a 3 hour nap on a Sunday, going out for lunch with some family members, finding the perfect cherries at Costco :)

    I love your white case — I’ve thought about getting a different case for my Droid — only because reaching in for a black/gray case doesn’t work well — I’d see a white phone right away though!
