Have you been to Pinterest?
If you have then you know what a blissful time suck it can be. I’ve literally spent hours at night on the couch surfing through beautiful photos of nature, romance, fashion, food – let’s not forget the food! And of course quotes and aspirations of who I want to be and how I want to live my life.
It’s a vision board for everyone.

- Decorate your home
- Swoon over hunky movie stars
- Compile lists of things to do, including books to read
- And wallow in the romance like a perky pink polka dot pig in a rainbow tutu.
