Hi, I'm Rachel.

A few years ago I could barely boil water.

True story.

Determined to be a kick ass wife, I developed a love for football and learned to cook in my tiny Jersey City kitchen. I spend my days working in Manhattan, my nights and weekends chasing after a rambunctious toddler, and the hours in between cooking with my husband and feeding my TV habit...oh, and I blog about it all!

Scents of Summer

Though it's passed the mid-August mark and surely summer will be winding down in the coming weeks, I really adore summer scents and am trying to soak them up while I can.

My all-time favorite is Marc Jacobs Cucumber Splash.

 

I got this a number of summers ago and somehow it's lasted a very long time. It's such a subtle, fresh, summery scent. It's not overpowering; I spray multiple times on my neck and on my wrists every morning in the summer and it gorgeous fruity, perfumy scent sets the tone for any summer morning.

Sadly, I believe it is discontinued, so I had better make this bottle last!

I also adore Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. Though it is a summery scent, I had received this as a Christmas gift and so I associate it with winter time! But really anytime is a good time for this fresh scent.

What are your favorite summer scents?
