A Beautiful Hamptons Garden, Skin Care , Healthy Eats, Exercise and More
Happy Sunday everyone! Today let’s chat about A Beautiful Hamptons Garden, Skin Care , Healthy Eats, Exercise and More today on the blog. Let’s join my friends Annie and Mary Ann for some Sunday fun.
A Beautiful Hamptons Garden in Homes and Gardens Magazine



We cannot grow many of the plants featured in this beautiful Hamptons garden featured in Homes and Gardens, but I am swooning over it all the same.
How Much Exercise do you Need?
We content creators spend long hours in front of our computers. This article from Living Simply states exactly how much exercise you need to compensate for all of the sitting.
What to Wear this Week
I love the brand Maison Hotel. Our local boutique Roux Collective has a few of their shirts. The colorful Hampton’s garden inspired these two outfits of the week with inexpensive similar shirts from Etsy.

I love this toile shirt from etsy and these great linen pants from Madewell, Janessa Leone raffia hat, less expensive here from Madewell, Mar Y Sol bag from Eileen Fisher, and Dolce Vita sandals that I own.

I love this pretty print shirt also from Etsy, with these great Banana Republic linen pants ( that I own in two colors size 6), Helen Kaminski hat on sale, and sandals and bag from Cole Haan both onsale. You can find all of my recent outfits of the week here.

What to Eat
Quinoa is a nutritional powerhouse offering several benefits. It is a complete protein, containing all nine essential amino acids. It is high in fiber which is great for digestion and helps refulate blood sugar, and it is rich in iron, magnesium and antioxidants, so it is a win win! These charred shrimp and pesto & quinoa bowls from Eating Well check all my boxes and they are simple to make!

How to Take Care of Your Skin
I found this article from Oprah daily How to take care of your Skin’s Barrier extremely interesting and helpful. Finally an article on skincare that makes sense. Do you agree?
Things I am Trying
Sakura gifted me one of their meal plans. I am anxious to try it. No Makeup Makeup, foundation and brush, my daughter loves it. If you can get by with very little coverage, this might be for you. This heirloom tomato candle from Flamingo Estate may be my new favorite.
If you missed any of my previous Sunday favorites, you can catch up here. Thank you so much for reading A Beautiful Hamptons Garden, Skin Care , Healthy Eats, Exercise and More. Now let’s pop over and visit Annie and Mary Ann to see what they are up to.

I bought that heirloom tomato candle and was sorry when it was gone!
That shrimp dish looks wonderful!
Yes Mary Ann! It is wonderful isn’t it?
Hi Cindy,
Your wardrobe finds are fabulous and I am big fan of your Etsy finds thank you! The salad is just what I want to eat so thank you for that. Gorgeous gardens to swoon over such a lovely post. Just come back from a huge road trip so we are home thrilled with our own backyard;nothing like going away to appreciate what you have already!
Have a wonderful week xo
Hi Francesca
I hope you had a blast on your trip! Would love to hear about it!
Hi Cindy! You’re right…hydrangeas on the east coast from the Hamptons to Martha’s Vineyard are bursting right now!
Love love love your outfits of the week! And all your links to articles are incredibly helpful!
Xx
So jealous Annie!!
Those gardens are sooooo beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Rory
You are so welcome Rory!!
Cindy, that tasty salad is for me! Have everything in my freezer and pantry…so that’s helpful.
More salads on my radar … I think you and I are on the same page regarding slimming a bit.
We are both fit and healthy , but a bit less is always a morale boost when clothes slip on more easily. I think summer is generally difficult for me because the heat can make it less desirable to exercise. So much easier to get moving when it’s cooler out! I will be 75 next weekend….and have plans over three days with different solo girlfriends …47, 63, and 74…they always different perspectives on life. Yes, food and wine will be included! Cheers 🥂
Happy Birthday Cath. Your BIRTHDAY celebration noted, will copy .
Am 65, and know I must be fit to push mow and tractor mow well into my 80’s. Made the mistake of telling a friend, and she said her mother mowed to age 90 !!!
I live on 5 acres, ca. 1900 home.
Cheers to your 75th Cath !
Ditto Happy Birthday Cath!!
Tara…thank you! I had to laugh at your message .
I made the mistake at 70 to tell others that I was going to challenge myself for my birthday to swim in an annual mile swim race here at Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island …then wondered what I had done! I am a good swimmer , but….then Covid changed all outdoor activities.
Do I dare call that a lucky escape! Due to onset of Meniere’s soon afterwards, I am not as confident in the water…but will get back in soon👍💦no excuses!
Happy mowing . C🐞
