July Moods 2023 is all about embracing the throws of summer while making plenty of time for down time.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
FOOD IS medicine
Food is so important, my Mom disagreed with the fact that I bought Cheerio’s with my grocery order. I went back and fourth with it. Though I love it, the ingredience say, I won’t buy it again. Please be careful with processed foods. Normally I eatva great deal of produce and Salmon, and very little chicken. The antibiotics, the stuff on fruits and veggies are nerve wrecking.
Finding recipes for veggie heavy cuisine is essential. I have said it before food is medicine, eat the rainbow.
Here are some foodie insprirations
LET’S START WITH AMBIANCE
Decor has a impact on who we are and how we define ourselves. It doesn’t cost a lot to creatively add touches to your environment to elavate the vibe.
My personal go to is vintage art, mostly signed and plants. They add a wonderful touch to my space. Being a plant mom really changed my life. I have become more introspective, and staying home can be tempting, when you enjoy your space. It works against me when I want to get out to an event or blog, but it works for me when I need to save money and lay low.
I have a few ideas..
STYLE SUMMER

This year is rushing by, as I am writing this we are passing the 2nd week of July.
For me, this month gave had very unique challenges, both personally and professionally.
I am always invested in growth, but I also know that it is not easy. Balancing work, blogging, home chores, investing in my other gifts, and making time from brunches, it feels like the most coveted thing is down time this summer, you have to take the days for time away.
Today, I an recovering from the weekend, more to come in that in the July journal. This week I have felt stressed, and disregarded, all kinds of emotions that come with being human. Come to find out I was going through woman issues.
So, in the spirit of turning things around I want to feature some style inspiration to help lighten the mood, and to help to sparkle bright anyway….
