Dear D'Arcy

5 Star Spa in Colorado-Relache Spa at The Gaylord Resort

5 Star Spa in Colorado-Relache Spa at The Gaylord Resort

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Happy Saturday! I hope you’re treating yourself to a bit of self-care this weekend. Taking a little time for yourself is always essential. At the beginning of the month, Ben and I had the opportunity to head to Colorado for a relaxing couples vacation at the Gaylord Rockies Resort. What a fabulous resort—stunning architecture, 5-star amenities, and fantastic staff. I’ll be sharing more about the resort and our experiences later. 

Today, I want to talk about the Spa-Relache Spa. This top-notch spa service is the perfect way to treat yourself and your spouse on vacation. If you live in Colorado, you need to book an appointment. We started our day with a coffee and a walk on the hotel’s beautiful grounds, which have walking paths, then headed to the Spa for our couples massage appointment.

5 Star Spa in Colorado-Relache Spa at The Gaylord Resort

Spa Overview

The Relache Spa is probably one of the most beautifully designed spas I’ve ever been to. With every attention to detail, complete luxury is available from the moment you step into the dressing rooms and relaxing rooms to the staff they hire and down to the snacks they serve. This is a full-service spa with a full-product boutique carrying high-quality products and local products sourced from local farms and honey. 

 

The staff at the Relache’

Talk about friendly, knowledgeable staff. You are given a one-on-one tour of the facilities before being shown to your personal lockers to change for your treatment. The staff also shows you everything you may use to get the most out of your treatment and make your experience as relaxing as possible. 

Our Masseuses, Tayler, and Megan, were sweet and attentive to our needs and wishes regarding the type of massage we wanted. 

Dressing Rooms

The dressing rooms are state of the art, with a cold dunk shower, a steam room, and private showers, all with the amenities of a home equipped with any toiletries you need. Private lookers with cozy robes and comfortable slippers. It has a sleek, modern feel and uses warm woods and relaxing tones.

After Ben and I each had our tours, we took our time getting ready for our massages and used the amenities in the dressing rooms. Then, we headed to the relaxation room to enjoy ourselves before our service.

The Relaxation Room

When you walk into the relaxation room, you feel like you just stepped into a luxury multimillion-dollar living room—stunning, tranquil, relaxing yet elegant and cozy. I have never been in a spa relaxation room designed with the detail and thought of this space.

It has a stunning fireplace, beautiful furniture, and a soft, tranquil color palette. There are lovely books and magazines to read while you curl up on a plush lounge chair in front of the fire. They also have beautiful gauze-covered private lounges if you wish to hide away.

They serve fresh fruits, deliciously flavored waters, homemade chocolates, and trail mixes. Seriously, it’s a pampering experience to spend time in this space before and after your treatment. After your treatment, you are served a cocktail in the relaxation room.

The Massage

Ben and I agreed it was probably the best massage we have had in a long time, if not ever. They do not use their elbows or forearms. There was the pressure we wanted while they used their hands and paid attention to our needs and wants. It was relaxing, yet they still worked on our problem areas. 

We had appointments for 50-minute Custom Massages, which included two add-ons. We chose CBD body oil and CBD pain Cream. They also used Recover Massage oil and Sweet Cheeks lotion on Ben and Honey Kiss lotion on me.

Below is their description of the Custom Massage:

Custom Massage – 50 Minutes

Your massage therapist will discuss your service goals before customizing the perfect treatment for your body and mind. Whether you are seeking deep relaxation or more therapeutic work, this session is tailor-built for you and includes credit to use for our various enhancements.

Treatment Add-ons

  • CBD Full Body Oil- Melt away stress, inflammation, and anxiety with this enhanced oil
  • CBD Spot Treatment- Melt away inflammation and pain with this enhanced cream spot therapy

Easy Turkey Lasagna Recipe

Easy Turkey Lasagna Recipe

Happy Sunday Pretty Ladies,

We’ve had a beautiful week in Utah. I’ve enjoyed getting our yard in tip-top shape, but I still have much to do with my future Daughter-in-law’s Bridal shower coming up fast. Speaking of Wedding festivities, our son is in Boston for his bachelor party, and before he left, I made this lasagna recipe, one of his favorites.

This week, Ben and I head to Colorado for a gateway, and Kayla is heading out on her Bachelorette trip, which means Hudson will be alone. This lasagna recipe is great for freezing and baking later, perfect for leaving for the family when you’re not home or taking to someone who’s had surgery or a baby.

I hope you try this Recipe out and love it like my family.

I didn’t want you to miss this opportunity to grab some of my favorite picks you’ll wear all Spring and Summer on sale.

I did this fun try-on with my girlfriend Danielle while in California, and I should have shared her try-on with you as well! I’ll share her picks below, as they looked darling on her and will on you, too. She’ll be shopping these pieces on the sale today as well.

On another note, my week in California was jam-packed, and I’ll share all about it next week.

5 Ingredient Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries Recipe

5 Ingredient Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries Recipe

Hello, Pretty Ladies. I hope you’re having a great Sunday. We’ve had some beautiful days in Utah and plan to go on a scenic drive after church today. The kids are coming for Sunday dinner. We’re making chicken tacos with all the fixings, including my delicious homemade guacamole and pico de gallo. Recipes are HERE.

Today’s “In the Kitchen with D’Arcy,” I share another family favorite: my 5-Ingredient Easy Chocolate-Coated Strawberries Recipe. It’s an easy recipe, tastes yummy, and looks like you spent a lot of time making it. I like to take these to parties, add the charcuterie boards, and make them for gifts. I know you will love these treats like my family does.

Watch My How to Video HERE

5 Ingredient Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries Recipe

🍓5 Ingredient Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries 🍓 

-Strawberries ( I like good size ones)

– 1 1/2 Cup chocolate chips

– 1/2 Cup White Chocolate Chips

– 2 Tbs butter

– 3 Tbs olive oil 

Wash strawberries and lay them out to dry (they must be dry to dip). In 2 small glass bowls, add chocolate chips in one and white chocolate chips in the other. Line cookie sheet with wax paper

In chocolate chips, add 1 Tbs Butter and 2 TBS olive oil. Warm in microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and repeat until chocolate is smooth, melted, And silky-looking. Working quickly, dip strawberries and lay them on a cookie sheet. 

When all the strawberries are dipped, you’ll decorate them with white chocolate. You’ll make the white chocolate the same way you make the regular chocolate. (Just a smaller amount)

1/2 cup white chocolate,  1 TBS Butter and Oil. Melt

And if you have a piping bag, you can create pretty white lines. I had no bag, So I drizzled the white chocolate on the berries.

Tips for add-ons:

TIP: You could also drip the chocolate-covered berries in mini chocolate chips, nuts, or toffee bits.

Refrigerate for 2 hours, then serve 

Tips on how to serve:

Tip: pretty on Dessert Boards, charcuterie boards to decorate other desserts, and pretty on a cocktail 🍓

 

Thank you for stopping by.

Let me know if you try the Recipe; I would love to know in the comments below. Thank you for stopping by and reading. “Ingredient Easy Chocolate Covered Strawberries Recipe” “You can do that here if you haven’t signed up for my weekly

What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕 I Didn’t What I DIDN’T do to prepare for…Midlife🌸💕
I Didn’t Worry about it…

Really, why worry about aging… instead YOU can prepare for it!

Knowledge is power, and Midlife now is completely different than how our mothers and grandmothers dealt with it. 

We have more information, conversation, products and help on the topic than generations before.

What you can do to Prepare for Menopause/aging….

-Eat well, 

-Exercise 

-Get outside and get real vitamin D 

- Drink lots of water

-Take supplements that will help the processes

- Ask questions

-Go to a Hormonal Doctor

-Share what works for you with Friends💕

- Get more Protein and Fiber

- Get sleep (it’s hard but figure out what works for you)

💕These are just a few things that can help! (I am not a Doctor) just sharing things I have found that really make a difference.

I am all about A Granny Summer… This COCO has bee I am all about A Granny Summer…

This COCO has been gardening what feels like my whole life, my mom loved gardening and her English gardens were beautiful, her tomatoes and herbs always yummy;) she taught me what each flower & veggies types were and how to grow & care for them etc. 

She would teach our boys “how to smell”  not really, but she would walk them around had have them smell each flower and how they smelt differently.. they’re puffing noses were so cute❤️

Gardening has always been apart of my life , every home, it was fun to rebuild and create… Try new things, depending on the land etc. it’s hard work, yet relaxing and so rewarding…. 

Over the years, I taught myself how to seed my flowers and veggies, what I could dry and harvest, how to can, what I liked to bake with, and  what freezes well. 

I would teach our boys, have them help pick apples and berries, take them to garden shops and have them pick favorites and let them plant, they would dig and help pull weeds… 

Gardening isn’t just for Grannies… it’s a hobby or career you can pick up at any age, but I have to say,  I can’t wait to take our NEW Grandson out to the gardens and learn, dig and plant…. He’s only 6 months and we already know he loves nature, and he loves plants.. he’s at peace in nature and loves to touch all the different plants and trees… he  loves the leaves slightly blowing in the breeze…. He’ll just stare, It’s so cute! 

With age, I do enjoy it more, as I enjoy the slower moments and the time gardening takes…

How about you? How do you feel about gardening?🌱🪴🌻🫛🪏🏡🧑‍🌾🫜⛲️
