We moved in a year ago now and we've been using old, white sheets that were comfy but just didn't seem to be us. My hubby and I love our room and we've even upgraded our bed, however, it looked ever so plain. With the summer season here, I felt we needed to redesign our room. With my busy schedule though, I desperately needed something doable but gorgeous! And so, I present to you Tips to update your Bedroom Decor and incorporate a classy, summery look in a timely fashion.

You know, we all grow up some time and as much as we love each other, it's hard to find alone time. I don't even mean the grown up stuff, even just hanging out or relaxing together or even enjoying each other's company. Take my hubby and me, we've known each other forever and we've only been married a short while but work itself is sucking the life out of us. We rarely had any time together last year and the time we did, we were passed out sleeping. So how do you keep your relationship strong and amp up that #BedroomSpice?

These following two movies have me pumped this summer and for completely different reasons! I can't believe the amazingness that comes out in August.

DreamWorks Pictures THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY starring Helen Mirren is one of those bound to be delicious movies that I can't wait to see. Watching this special featurette that has Steven Spielberg, Oprah Winfrey and Helen Mirren was really eye opening. Steven Spielberg sure has a way with words and I particularly liked a specific line he said:
You have to walk a distance to achieve something of value for yourself.
How true...what can you achieve if you don't try? People aren't just going to hand you opportunities. At the same time though, I suspect we'll see the Hundred Foot Journey teaching us about life and acceptance of others, while tantalizing us with warm emotions and teasing us with the look of delicious food.
Speaking of food, there are new #100FootJourney inspired recipes courtesy of DreamWorks! Click the image below to download 5 new recipes.

The HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY is in theaters August 8th!

My other must-watch summer movie is Marvel's GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY! I love love love my superhero movies through and through and particularly love Marvel! This special extended look at Guardians of the Galaxy not only pumped me up with the music, made me wait in anticipation, and cracked me up!

Chris Pratt aka Peter Quill is hilarious, "I have a plan, part of a plan."
Drax aka Batista, "What percentage of a plan?"
Pratt, " I don't know, 12% of a plan."
Hilarity ensues...you'd have to watch it to see what I mean.
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY is in theaters August 1st!

I recently wrote about 10 Reasons Why You Should Go On a Cruise. One of the reasons I love cruises is because of ease of which everything is included. However, to keep costs manageable, you also need to know about the hidden costs aka the extra expenses you need to consider when going on a cruise.

There are so many places one could go on vacation or travel to, so why do so many choose to cruise instead of flying or driving to their tourist sites. I can tell you why I chose cruising. After years of planning vacations for my family and I, I decided it was time I got a break and got to enjoy myself a little. However, that isn't to say that there isn't a bunch of planning that still goes into cruising. If you've never cruised before, these 10 reasons will get you thinking...
