These days it seems like everyone is cutting back and trying to save money.  One thing that is the first to go is the little things you do for yourself everyday.  Doing something good for yourself is so important to being happy - and you don’t have to spend a lot.    Here are a few of my favorite ways to spoil myself this spring

Starbucks
The latest treat from our favorite coffee shop; the Luscious Lemon Tart is refreshingly divine.  Try it with a cup of Kenyan coffee – yum!  Available at Starbucks stores nationwide

Barrio Restaurant
The newest Mexican restaurant in Bellevue, it’s the best happy hour around with $2 tacos and fabulous cocktails.

Amore Chocolates
Heaven in a bite.  For just a few dollars you can fill a small box and you get a free sample just for stopping in.  Amore Chocolates is on Main Street in Bellevue

Champagne Candle by Lafco New York
This is the best candle I have ever found and at one of my favorite shops.  The smell is intoxicating.  La Ree is just off Main Street in Bellevue

Revival Home and Garden
Sometimes the biggest indulgence is shopping somewhere new.  Drive to Downtown Seattle and check out my favorite shop.  That’s where I bought this mod box.  Revival Home & Garden is on Airport Way in Georgetown

Kiehl’s Crème de Corps
Smooth skin is a luxury that is often elusive.  No matter what the weather, Crème de Corps will keep your skin feeling heavenly.  Buy in bulk for the best value.  Available at Nordstrom

Belle Pastry
An indulgence for the stomach and the eyes – these are the most stunning works of pastry!  Meet a friend and split one for just a few dollars!  Belle Pastry on Main Street in Bellevue
