The chirp of a bell on a beach cruiser. The sound of wind chimes. The high frequency of blowing oak leaves mixed with the low frequency of swaying Spanish moss shaking free of the morning dew. The soundtrack to the spring sunlight playing in black and white on the sidewalk. pic.twitter.com/Ktx2iMAUxx

The rustle of sweetgrass waving like an inflatable tube guy in a sudden spring gust of wind. Good natured haggling over cartons of fresh berries and plump peaches at a farmers market. The salty, wheat-rich aroma of baking biscuits pouring through an open window. pic.twitter.com/yWeOaNKo14

Soft pastry pieces with fresh-from-the-oven character. Soaked through and through with brown sugar caramel sauce. Crackling little bits of salted pecans. Every bite is this perfect moment suspended in time inside lush coconut cream. pic.twitter.com/Hwp9lBoVER

Is getting more sleep part of your New Year’s resolution? Fortunately, Memorial District businesses specialize in helping people get a good night’s sleep. Whether you need a new sleep mask, a new mattress, cozy hotel stays, or something in between, the Memorial District can help.
Don’t underestimate the power of a good sleep mask. One of the best sleep masks is a budget-conscious sleep mask from HEB. Whether you get this UHealth Sleep Mask for $4 from HEB or this Manta Sleep COOL Mask for $30 from Urban Outfitters, having an eye mask cover your eyes during the night will help you reach the deepest levels of sleep.
If you don’t have the right mattress, you’re never going to get the deep, rejuvenating sleep your body deserves. Sleep Number Memorial City can help you figure out precisely what kind of mattress is right for you and connect you with an adjustable and responsive mattress. Head to Mattress Firm to find mattresses, bed frames, and pillows.
You spend a third of your life in bed, so be indulgent and make sure your bedding represents your mood. Are you someone who winds down best in a room with muted colors? Do dark colors do the trick? Maybe you like to change things up from season to season, and a floral print would help you feel best in the coming months, especially if it’s on airy organic cotton sateen like this Holly Organic Cotton Duvet Cover from Anthropologie CITYCENTRE.

Happy resting!
