Hi, Reader,
We’re heading into one of those stretches where everything starts to pick up.
We’ve got… Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Grad parties, Showers, Summer weddings… not to mention casual summer cookouts. All of which… require some thought and planning.
Don't panic... I can help!
This month, I wanted to send a quick roundup of ideas you can use now (and bookmark for what’s coming next). Take what you need, and let me know if there’s anything you could use MORE of. I’ve got you.

Psst...Don't forget mom!
If you’re still trying to figure out a sweet way to celebrate your mom next weekend, and don't want to resort to the last-minute store bought bouquet, here are a few easy places to start:
→ Simple Mother’s Day brunch ideas (prep-ahead menu + simple table set-ups)
→ Thoughtful (but easy) gift ideas you can make in an afternoon
→ Experience ideas you can do together
Nothing overcomplicated... just some simple ideas that feel a little more special.
Next Up: Summer Hosting Season
If your calendar is already starting to fill up, you're not alone... the start of summer hosting season is coming up QUICK. From showers, to grad parties, to summer BBQs and all the weddings, it can be overwhelming.
