Happy Monday! 

I hope you all had a great weekend! Some of you might still be enjoying it if you are lucky enough to have a three day weekend [ I do not :( ]. Since the boyfriend and I celebrated Valentine's Day earlier in the week while he was in town my weekend was pretty uneventful. Friday night was spent indoors watching the Olympics due to more snow showers and Saturday I caught up on sleep, cleaned my room, and enjoyed a little quiet time + reading. Sunday was the usual task of grocery shopping for the week and I even managed to try out a few new recipes. I'll be sharing one later this week so be on the lookout for that!

Whether you are at work or enjoying the day off I hope you have a great start to the week!

I started this blog after my college graduation when I deactivated my Facebook account as a way to keep my friends and family up to date on my life. Since then it has become more of a random collection of whatever I feel like posting. That is why a 2014 goal of mine is to post more pictures from my every day life and get back to why I started this blog in the first place. And while snapping shots for an upcoming DIY over the weekend [coming next week!] I thought to myself "why not start right now?" So here is the first post of what I hope becomes a regular thing here at Eclectic Snapshots!

Oh, and in case you are wondering ... 

Still no Facebook! :)
