This Week’s Reads, Eats and Buys

Happy Sunday! Do you have anything fun planned for the long weekend?

Yesterday, I spent a wonderful afternoon at Planta. Rebeca of Wishbone & Clover organized an epic blogger brunch. The tables were beautiful, the food was delicious and the company was even better. As you can imagine, I took a ton of photos. I still have to go through them all, but I’ll be sharing soon. You’ll most likely see them in next week’s reads, eats and buys article.

Other than yesterday’s brunch, the rest of my weekend is looking to be pretty quiet. I’m just excited to see the sun shining and a glimpse of spring weather. If you’re looking for some articles to read, recipes to make, or things to buy, here’s this week’s reads, eats and buys!
