5 Ways to Fight the Winter Blues - M Loves M @marmar

Without fail, around this time of year, I always start to feel a little bit down. We’re flying through January, the excitement of healthy eating has waned a bit, and I’m missing the holidays. Our weather has been flip-flopping between 80 degree days and a chilly 60, so I feel like I haven’t been able to truly enjoy the weather, either. I wish for sunny days when it’s chilly, and then when it’s sunny I’m like “noo but it’s wintertime!” I’m a fickle girl this time of year, that’s for sure, always wanting what I can’t have- like my chocolate chip cookies with my kale salads. In all seriousness though, I know this time of year isn’t always the easiest so I thought I’d share 5 ways to fight the winter blues, in case any of you are feeling them too!

the 10 best coffee shops in Los Angeles - M Loves M @marmar

I don’t know about you but I feel like I can’t get enough coffee into my week. One of my favorite things to do is visit coffee shops. Los Angeles has some of the best coffee shops and I feel like a new one pops up each week. Most of you have probably seen my guide to Los Angeles and I got so many great replies that I decided to do an L.A. coffee guide! Let me know your favorites or which ones you visit.

Our Weekend Getaway to Lake Arrowhead

November 16, 2017

Our Weekend Getaway to Lake Arrowhead | M Loves M -@marmarIt already feels like ages ago, but remember when we took a trip to Lake Arrowhead the other week? Matthew and I ended up planning this little getaway after chatting in the car one day about how we were both fed up with our 90 degree heatwave and “remember when we went to Portugal?” We decided to address the need for a little getaway while planning a trip to a cooler weather spot. We couldn’t go far so we ended up on Lake Arrowhead. Can you believe I’ve never been? I know, how is that possible? I grew up in Los Angeles and Arrowhead is just an hour and a half away. You’d think it would be the perfect weekend getaway. Growing up we went to another lake town though that was closer to our family in the Bay Area.

Matthew and I had such a great weekend in Arrowhead and we immediately vowed we’d be back very very soon. I’m so excited that we have a somewhat local spot to take Augustine. Here are some photos and stories from our weekend getaway to Lake Arrowhead, along with some food spots we loved!VIEW POST
