every Saturday my mom and i go on a date. this past Saturday was no exception.
usually our date starts with a trip to Bath & Body Works to peruse their divine smelling lotions and candles. sometimes we walk away with a bag full of bottles, other times just wearing a different fragrance.
afterwards we usually make a Starbucks run, because it just across the street so naturally it's only wise. once we order one cookie and two lattes we find a quiet spot by the window and chat. with lattes still in hand we walk down the sidewalk of the shopping strip and slip into Pier One. i absolutely adore going into this store. every time it inspires me with ideas for my home. it's almost a rule never purchase anything in there, (unless it's a discounted candle). i simply love to look and imagine.
after leaving that shopping strip we sometimes drive to the mall and shop at Macy's. i receive a discount there so it's really fun to purchase sale items. afterwards we will grab the occasional pretzel at the kiosk and wonder around, peeking into boutiques.
.
we end our date by coming home and admiring our goodies. after making a small snack we plop on the couch to continue talking and painting nails at the same time.
i love Saturday dates with my mom.
