Lavender Fields

♫ Melaena Cadiz- The Shape of Things ♫ 

Hey lovelies!

Happy Friday!

Here are a couple snaps from last weekend's outing to the Lavender Festival in Yucaipa! This was my 2nd year attending and it was just as great as the first time. I have to admit I was waiting all year for this event, I loved it that much lol. The lavender festival is a perfect intro to summer, as I've mentioned before I'm a huge fan of lavender-anything so it was definitely worth a visit.  

Anyways, the best part was trying the lavender ice cream (I finally got to try it this time since they sold out last year :( I tried both the chocolate and honey lavender flavors and it was sooo yummy to say the least :P 

I also got to try the lavender iced tea and lavender lemonade, which I eventually mixed together into an Arnold Palmer haha. Overall the weather was great, loved the vibes, and the sunset was magical. The lavender bushes weren't completely in full bloom yet until mid to late June so I'm hoping to go back again, I mean it's def worth checking out!

Have you guys been before?

Lavender Festival

♫ Mazzy Star- Bells Rings ♫ 

This past weekend I got to visit the Lavender Festival in Cherry Valley, although it was quite a drive it was so worth it! It was my first time going to this event and I absolutely loved it! As you guys probably have seen in my last posts I LOVE lavender, the scent is so soothing and relaxing, I've also been obsessed with anything lavender-infused, from organic beauty products to drinks! 

The festival took place in Highland Ranch Springs & Inn, which is a pretty huge site and beautiful ranch, the weather was perfect and overall loved the good vibes! There was so much delicious food, lavender drinks, and yummy desserts that still have me craving for more haha, I loved the lavender lemonade and the earl grey lavender iced latte....it was sooo refreshing. I even bought the loose tea leaves and organic lavender syrup so I can recreate the drink at home. It was so nice being surrounded by nature and lavender, it brought back nostalgic memories from last June when I was in Provence's lavender fields...*le sigh*

If you love lavender I highly suggest visiting the lavender fields, this coming weekend is the last one, and trust me it's worth a visit!  :)

Earl grey lavender latte...so refreshing and yummy!
