I love Springtime in South Carolina! This part of the country does Spring so well. Monday was the first day of Spring, but we’ve been enjoying blooms and green grass for weeks now (except for that freak snowstorm a few weeks ago!). It won’t be long before the heat and humidity set in, so I plan to enjoy the weather while it’s still tolerable.
My bucket list for this season is short – but I really only have two months until it feels like summer. Here’s to a beautiful and productive Spring!
Plan and host Easter dinnerRecap hereGo on spring vacation!Pictures from our vacation here- Complete a spring cleaning routine (I’m considering this one)
Finish the master bedroom gallery wall. I did the office gallery wall instead- Find a good deal on a blender and

Come Home For Comfort 
Don’t feel bad about the blender situation. I have one but hardly ever use it. I think it’s been several years (like 6 or 7) since I last drug it out! My parents bought it for me and gave me a book of smoothie recipes. Sad to say, I never made a single recipe! I did get some frozen berries and blend them with ice cream a few times, though. Pretty sure that’s not a healthy smoothie! 😉 I need to revisit that book, and I’ll let you know if anything looks good.
So far this spring, I’ve been cleaning and need to haul things to Goodwill again. Mom and I have some tomato and pepper seedlings in the house that will transfer to the garden when it’s warmer and the ground gets tilled. I’m planning to plant flowers out there, too. My sister’s surgery went as expected last Friday, and now she needs to heal up (many prayers going up for her!). Hopefully, we can get her back to normal very soon! Our fun, free-time things have kind of been on hold due to her condition. I’ve been trying to exercise a bit more and eat healthier snacks, too.

Praying for sister’s recovery! Yeah, my food processor is doing a fine job with making smoothies so I’m going to stick with that for now.

GIRL! I am cursed with blenders. If you haven’t bought one yet please let me recommend Ninja Master Prep. It’s $30 but it is amazing!!!!

Thank you for the recommendation! I looked at those the other day and wondered how good they were. I will definitely keep that in mind!

The blender one made me smile. I didnt own one for years either now I have a regular and an immersion one that I use all the time. Great list.

Somehow I’ve just never really needed one! Glad I’m not the only one who has survived blender-less for all these years. 🙂

Sounds like a great to do list!! I have a super cheap blender from Wal-Mart that does the job. I hear all the hype about the fancy blenders, but can’t justify spending hundreds of dollars on a blender. Hope you find a good one. I love breakfast smoothies so you’ll have to share your favorite recipe when you find one. Hope you have a wonderful Spring trip and that you enjoy this lovely time of year when everything is in bloom!

I browsed the blenders at Target this week and was pleased to see I can get one for less than $30! I think I’ll go that route to start, and upgrade if I need something fancier. 🙂

Mexico sounds awesome! We went to the Tennessee mountains for a quick – and beautiful – change of scenery. It was great!

So many people own really fancy blenders just to make smoothies, lol. I have my trusty old Cuisineart that I received as a wedding gift 12 years ago now, and it’s still blending my smoothies just fine ;-). I’ll be interested to see what you purchase! We love smoothies in our house. I have a few recipes I’ll send you that I think you would like!

Please send me your recipes, that would be great! Yeah, I’m thinking I’ll end up grabbing a cheap blender from Target and then upgrading if I ever feel the need. 🙂

I’m sure I’ll post it on Instagram, if nothing else. Projects like that are not my favorite, so it will be a proud moment when I get it accomplished! 🙂
