Friday Favorites from Heather Bullard, Recipe Runner, the Kitchn, the Simple Luxurious Life and More

July 7, 2018 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 5 Comments

Good morning! Happy Friday! How was your 4th of July? Mine was great, except for the sun burn. My husband and I were supposed to go for  a short walk with friends at the beach, and to see the cute place they rented for a month before their return home to Spain. Then we were going to go home to do a few things around the house and a little work before burgers on the grill and the fireworks.

Lucky for us that went by the wayside because that short walk ended up being 8 miles with no sun screen, hence the sun burn and no water. Upon our exhausted return the house we had some fresh squeezed lemonade and then moved on to Sangria at which point our friends pointed out that none of us had eaten so they whipped up a  beautifully prepared paella. We wiled away the rest of the day talking, laughing and enjoying one another’ company before returning home burt, tired and just in time for the fireworks. Sometimes the best days are the ones not planned.

Doesn’t this Grilled Chicken and Peach Salad with Goat Cheese and Pecans look delicious?!

Lime, Cucumber Agua Fresca

Long, hot summer days call for something cool and refreshing and one of my favorite things to drink is this Lime & Cucumber Agua Fresca from The Meaning of Pie. 

Interesting Reading

This is cool! A giant whale made from a fraction of the plastic littering the oceans.

    Peaches are so good right now and so easy to mix up in different recipes. If we could ever nail the multi colors of a peach in interior design…we'd be in heaven!
