Wishing I was still back in my happy place. I may not be there, but at least it’s Friday!
On a separate note, has anyone else jumped on the belt bag craze? I got my first one last year for my travels. I became so obsessed with it that I haven’t used a purse now in over a year! I have never liked carrying around a bunch of stuff so these are just so convenient, and they are perfect for travel. They have a bunch of really cute colors out right now perfect for spring and summer. I have them linked on my LTk. I have the Link in bio. Have a Happy weekend! #disneycaliforniaadventure #fridayvibes #happyweekend https://liketk.it/4E0zo #ltkfashion #shopltk @shop.ltk

I knew I would find some ways to use all that parsley! I totally forgot about this Couscous Tabouleh recipe. I used to make it all the time years ago. I have the full recipe up on stayingblonde.com #couscous #couscoussalad #tabbouleh #couscoustabouleh #summersalad #saladrecipes #easyrecipeideas

Who else has started planting? So far I’ve gotten my tomatoes and peppers in the ground. I think it might finally be warm enough to plant my cucumbers this weekend! I love spring! If you’ve started planting what have you planted? #gardeninglife #veggiegarden #californialiving #springtime #springvibes

Having a nice sit down meal is essential to making our Disney trip as magical as possible. We have a few restaurants that we look forward to each time we visit. In order to get the reservations we want, even at the hard to get restaurants, we use a few techniques that have worked for us each and every time.
1. Book Early: Reservations open up at 6 AM, 60 days in advance.
2. Be Flexible: Book what ever time you can get. You can always try to change the time after you get the reservation.
3. Check for Cancellations: These do pop up every so often.
4. Join a Walk-up List: these actually work a lot better than I thought they would.
5. Visit in Person: if all else fails, go visit the restaurant where you would like to eat. If you visit, especially in the off hours, there is a chance they can get you in.
You can find more about these five simple tips over on StayingBlonde.com. I have a link to the blog post in my bio. #disneydining #disneytips #disneyland #disneylandcalifornia #bluebayou #lamplightlounge #carthaycircle #tradersamsenchantedtikibar #disneymom #disneyfamily #disneymagicmoments

Happy Friday! Do you always buy bikinis as a set? Or do you buy pieces separately?
I used to always buy them as a set, but now I am really picky about bottoms, especially if they are pricy! I loved this top so much, but I wasn’t crazy about the bottoms that went with it. They didn’t have much coverage, and I need coverage! 😝 So I splurged on the top, which I am glad that I did because it’s great quality and oh so comfortable. I found these bottoms for under $15 at Target and I think they work great. I did this with the cream version of this suit too.
The top was just too cute to pass up. If you’re looking for a comfortable, flattering, wireless bikini top that holds everything in place you need to check this one out. It’s on the pricier side, but so worth it. I feel like I will still have this top 20 years from now. I have it linked in my bio and on my LTK page. https://liketk.it/4DpnF #bikini #bikiniseason #swimsuitseason #swimsuit #ltkswim #disneylandhotel #springbreak #montceswim #fashionover40 #styleover40 #whatiweartoday

I can’t believe we got this last minute reservation. What a surprise! This was our first time dining at the Lamplight lounge, and I honestly didn’t know what to expect, but the food was delicious and the show was amazing! There is seriously no better way to watch “World of Color!”
I have a new post up on Staying Blonde with five tips on how to always get the dining reservations you want at Disney.

I think I’ve already found my new favorite summer dress! I can’t believe that I was on the fence about sending it back. Have you started summer shopping yet? I have this dress linked in my bio if you want to check it out. #summerdress #summerdresses #fashionover40 #styleover40 #whatiweartoday #summerstyle #tuckernuck #shirtdress #littleblackdress https://liketk.it/4CD3C

Yay for Spring Break! One great thing about living in California is having @disneyland within driving distance for a spontaneous getaway.
We actually didn’t have anything planned for spring break, but last week we all decided that we needed just a few days away. So, here we are. I only wished that I looked at little deeper and realized that we are here for Dapper day! I at least had a dress packed in my bag, but I would have preferred us all looking much more dapper for Dapper Day. 🙂

What do all three of these dresses have in common? Pockets! I don’t think I buy dresses without pockets anymore.
What do you think? I was unsure about the second one because of how short it is, but I ended up liking it too much to return it. Actually, I will probably end up keeping all three!

What does one do with this much parsley? Our parsley went wild this year. I definitely don’t want to waste it. I’ve already given some away. The only thing I can really think to do is dry it, right?
Btw, if you have any good recipes involving parsley, please send them my way. 😂 #gardeninglife #parlsey #herbs #californialiving
