Good Morning! Over the weekend, I finally made my first camping trip of the year. It was such a relief to get out of town and have absolutely no agenda, to be surrounded by gorgeous trees and blue sky and long, long beaches stretching out to infinity. I had never been to the Cape before, and the dunes and the scent of the pines reminded me of the California coast. I’ve loved camping since I was a little girl, and over the years I have been collecting little items that make camping more comfortable, beautiful, and easy. I took a few photos around the camp site, and I thought you might enjoy a little peek, so here you go:

In the top picture, you can see I’m peering into the tent through the window – I’ve laid down a pretty quilt beneath our Therm-A-Rests and sleeping bags, and my copy of Country Living is waiting patiently to be read. The newest addition to my glamping kit is this tiny knife, which I bought because it was cute and it comes with a little safety cover – but I was amazed at how sharp it is! It cut through a giant pile of vegetables like softened butter. Beneath that you can see a little smidgen of the floral tablecloth I spread over our picnic table, and candles lined up down the center to add an ambient glow as the sun sets.
What did you do over your weekend? I would love to hear. I’ll be back in just a few to start my first giveaway, which I am so excited to tell you about!
