summer


sweet home chicago

i’m sifting through my photos after a blissful two month vacation back home with all the family, friends and food my heart (and stomach!) could hold. what a great trip it was. so many moments that i’ve been needing for a long time… and so much food that i need to do a detox!
living on the other side of the world always has its adventures so upon returning to the place i call home, it is a beautiful thing to just BE. although we had a busy schedule and did lots of things, the best times were the simplest. like lounging in the backyard with the grill fired up and a cool st. germain mojito (uncle arvid’s new favorite!) in hand… or making buttery arepas with my husband’s mom and her sisters and then devouring half a dozen of them.
too many beautiful moments to recount but the most important ingredient in all of them was… LOVE.
