 Over the weekend I always love taking the time with my boyfriend Danny to explore our neighborhood a bit and enjoy some fun together. So today I’ve partnered with uberPOOL to show you guys some of my favorite places near and in my neighborhood that I enjoy going to! First up is Milk and Roses which is in a bit of a weird spot in Greenpoint as the train isn’t exactly close to it- therefore perfect for taking an uberPool to! I love Milk and Roses and all of its romantic charm. The first time I ever came in, which was between 2 or 3 years ago, I just fell in love. The decor on the inside is so lovely filled with beautiful books, antiques, and red leather sofas. If you walk to the back, they have a stunning backyard that feels like you’ve been transported somewhere else. It’s certainly a gem and the food is delicious! I’ve however never tried the french toast and it looks so yum. It’s my next thing I have to get!

In Brooklyn everything is so spread out,but there’s so much to see. That’s why uberPOOL is so perfect for me because it’s affordable and doesn’t stop me from exploring over the weekend with my babe. With parking being a hassle basically in all of NYC it’s so nice not to worry about that! I take so many Uber’s a week and I always feel safe. My favorite aspect that always make me feel safe is that the app provides the driver’s name, vehicle number, and you can share your ETA with friends or family. I know I’m always getting into the right car and staying safe by looking at the license plate and matching it to the app.

Next up is a record store in Williamsburg called Rough Trade that has an awesome selection of vinyl. I like to stop in and treat myself to some new records every so often. They also have an amazing magazine selection with stuff that can be hard to find. I love all of the string lights in the store and think they are so cute! It’s one of those places I regularly go to because I love picking out new music and seeing what’s going on there. They also have music acts play in the back venue which is really cool!

Afterwards we picked up some groceries from the market for dinner and took an uberPOOL home. It was a perfect ending to a lovely day.

My very first Mother’s Day as your mom my sweet My very first Mother’s Day as your mom my sweet Evergreen 🤍 you’ve changed my life forever & being your mom is always going to be the thing I am most proud of in my life 🤍 I remember right after she was born (this first photo) she was crying & I just kept saying “it’s okay baby, it’s okay” and I can’t even explain how surreal it was to be holding my baby in my arms. It’s hard for me sometimes to not feel like I’m counting down the Mother’s days my mom had with me.. thinking I only have 6 more. It reminds me constantly to be more present and make allllll the memories & don’t hold back. Being a mom is one of the hardest things I’ve ever done & also one of the absolute best, beautiful, meaningful things I’ve ever done. 🤍

A little love letter to this @sezane floral shirt A little love letter to this @sezane floral shirt of my dreams 💕🌷 this weekend is my first Mother’s Day and it has me thinking a lot about being a mom and weird little details. I used to think when you loved someone it meant you had every part of them memorized- you could pick out their hand in a line up or their lips. But with Ever I’ve realized it’s not like that- every single day she’s growing and every single day she wakes up a little bit different. It may sound silly but it’s been on my heart lately about how weirdly this feels like such an emotional part of motherhood that seems so simple but is something I never really thought about. #sezanelovers #sezanepartner
Motherhood is often seen as the ultimate balancing Motherhood is often seen as the ultimate balancing act - managing a career, maintaining a home, and raising children. But what if saying “no” could actually be empowering and give mothers the chance to say “yes”? #pureleafpartner 💕

That’s where the “No” Grants partnership with @pureleaf comes in. This program is designed to provide a little extra financial support to mothers who want to say “no” to the pressures and expectations that come with motherhood and “yes” to simplicity. With the “No” Grants partnership, Pure Leaf is empowering mothers to say “no” to doing it all and “yes” to simplifying life.

To learn more and apply for a “No” Grant, visit the link in my bio! #noisbeautiful 

No purchase necessary. Open to all 50 US & DC residents, 18+ (19+ in AL/NE). Ends 10/31/23. Rules, eligibility & entry deadlines: www.PureLeaf.com/NoGrants.
