L I S B O N // We set out toward Lisbon’s windy, older Alfama neighborhood early in the morning, before most folks had woken up, the streets still quiet and calm. I imagine it looks and feels a lot like this at the current moment, too, while the quarantine still affects most of the globe. ... ... I hope that just like here at home, the sun is shining as brightly as it was on this day. All those pastel buildings softly glowing, leading us up and down steep hills until finally, we looked out over the city and onto the Atlantic in the distance. ... ... Man, I’m missing travel at the moment. Soon enough, I know. Soon enough. ... ... #lisbon #lisboa #portugal #visitportugal #alfama #streetscape #morningvibes #quietmoments #pastelaesthetic #historichomes #europe #europetravel #virtualtravel #travelblogger #thetraveltag #michiganblogger

E A T S // Anyone head to Eastern Market for their curbside pick up program today? We’re well stocked given Sunday’s Kroger delivery, but I did enjoy our @beyondjuiceryeatery produce boxes last week! ... ... Once we’ve eaten through the fresh foods, I’m gearing up for some serious takeout. I’ve been craving so many Detroit restaurant meals! 😭 What’s on your list? @greyghostdetroit @thepeterboro @chilimustardonions and @elasadordetroit are on mine 🍴 ... ... #detroit #easternmarket #quarantined #takeouttuesday #takeout #detroitfood #detroitfoodie #producetogo #farmersmarket #detroitlove #detroitblogger #michigrammers #puremittigan #puremichigan #detroiteats

B R U N C H I N ‘ // Today’s breakfast did NOT look like this one in Santorini. We’re out of eggs, low on coffee and our hash browns have soy in them so this mama cant eat them (😭). But it sure feels good to reminisce! And thankfully, our Kroger pick-up order is scheduled for tomorrow morning 🙌🏼 ... ... Any exciting plans for today? Mine includes a curbside pick up from @fortheloveofsugardetroit so things are looking up! Also, Zooming with friends and maybe getting that vacuuming done that I’ve been putting off since Wednesday. ... ... #saturday #saturdayvibes #santorini #thira #thirasantorini🇬🇷 #brunch #greece #greeceislands #caldera #hotellife #roomservice #quarantined #throwback #travelgram #travelblogger #michiganblogger

S U N S H I N E // In a cup. Celebrating the small things ... like today’s sun (!!) with the most simple three-ingredient breakfast smoothie. {Thanks to my fruit box via curbside pickup from @beyondjuiceryeatery 🍌I restocked my produce days before my @krogerco pick up was scheduled.} ... ... Just toss into a blender: - BIG handful kale or spinach - Half or full banana - Small handful frozen mango - Ice plus 1/2 cup liquid {water / milk / almond milk} ... ... On days that I want to mix it up, I might add a few chunks of frozen coconut from Trader Joe’s, a teaspoon of chia seeds, some collagen protein or half an avocado. ... ... What simple recipes or morning actions are bringing you moments of joy while quarantined? ... ... #detroit #detroitmoms #detroitmom #detroitblogger #michigrammers #michiganblogger #smoothierecipes #smoothie #quarantined #foodie #simplejoys #greensmoothie #bbgfood #vegan #veganrecipes #dairyfreemama #staycation

P R I N T A B L E // In case you’re looking for something to do (🤪), just a little reminder that we included this downloadable PDF print in our latest blog post, perfect for printing out and framing in any 8x8 frame to add a little dose of - ahem - ADVENTURE to your life. {It’s also in the Etsy shop, but free to download on the blog!} Link is in bio. 👆🏼... ... Featuring a photo from our trip to Yoho National Park, we hung ours in the babe’s explorer themed nursery, but think it’d be right at home in a big kid’s room, play space or good ol’ gallery wall. ... ... Happy Wednesday! And for now, here’s to the trails in our own backyards 🥾🎒🌳 ... ... #quarantined #travel #travelblogger #printable #printables #free #freebies #etsyshop #etsy #nurserydecor #nurseryinspo #nurseryideas #nurserydesign #kidsart #artoftheday #designoftheday #etsykids #explorecanada #yohonationalpark #emeraldlake #emeraldlakelodge #adventurenursery #explore #diy #diyhomedecor #printathome #download #freeart

S O C I A L D I S T A N C E // We rallied the neighbors in our small building for a socially distanced happy hour this past Thursday, dragging lawn chairs and blankets for bundling up out onto the grass ... placed far enough apart, but within earshot of one another. ... ... It felt so nice to just commune. A couple of drinks. Laughter. The air getting chillier as the sun dropped. And then, heading back inside just a little bit lighter feeling. Today, just a couple of days later, I’m not sure I’d even venture that far, with Wayne County Coronavirus cases surging like they are. ... ... I hope that wherever you are today, and whatever your plans, you can find a bit of time to celebrate the weekend, to raise a glass to your housemate or even just the TV, or open up an old puzzle box or deck of cards. Heck, even to take a lazy nap while the rain comes down. ... ... Happy Saturday, Detroit. ... ... #detroit #quarantined #quarantineandchill #covid_19 #michigrammers #detroitblogger #travelblogger #hawaii #kauai #socialdistancing #socialdistance

S A M E . // Current life, illustrated shockingly well by this oblivious hermit crab. ... ... But on the bright side, this little guy lived in Bora Bora, so there’s hope for all of us. ... ... #quarantined #quarantineandchill #quarantine #quarantinelife #detroit #detroitmoms #michigrammers #michiganblogger #borabora #hermitcrab #shelterinplace
