hi hello hey guess what?!? IT’S ME!!👋🏼 my sister called me last night and said something that kindaaaaaaa felt like a gut punch in the moment: “Catherine, people don’t really care about your super exiting surprise project. they care about your coffee order. and what you got at the store today. they follow you because they want to know about YOU. not your business.” ooof. not exactlyyyyy what I wanted to hear, ya know? none of us WANTS to know that our sister thinks our instagram content is stale🙈 BUT I sure as heck do want to know how to show up better, because it comes back to what it’s always come back to - because I want to serve and to serve well. it’s way easier to separate life into “personal” and “business” - and it’s way harder to share all the things, the good, the bad, and the “oops I ate the wrapper of my sandwich on an airplane in the dark” moments (anybody else remember that??😂😂) but good things aren’t always easy! so here’s to showing up more, showing up imperfect, and showing you more of my coffee orders...or something like that, I might need to fine tune that part😉 thank you for being here, and for celebrating both the business wins and playhouse builds, for loving on my couples and laughing at my misadventures, but mostly just for sharing this sweet little online space with me. it makes my heart so full🤍🤍🤍 tell me - what’s one thing I could share more of that YOU would truly love??? photo by @dustinandbree edit by me(: 
who remembers last year’s experiment with naturally dyeing Easter eggs?🙋♀️ it’s one of my favvvvv annual traditions I actually started back in college, but I didn’t have time this year between my travels:( BUT NEVER FEAR, I brought back everyone’s fav Easter post so you too can create beautiful, earth toned, insta-worthy eggs (none of that crazy neon stuff here!!)😉✨ so brew a few cups of coffee and tea, raid your spice drawer, and get ready to be amazed!! some of my favorite natural dyes are: + mint tea + ground coffee + crushed frozen spinach leaves + ground turmeric + raspberry tea + mashed frozen blueberries (mashed after they melted in the boiling water) + pickle juice + earl grey tea + grape juice (or red wine would work!) + balsamic vinegar + beet juice + ground ginger + chili powder add a splash of vinegar to each egg coloring element, and then top off with boiling water. happy dyeing!!🐰🥚🌼
