Good morning! Happy hump day to you. I hope that you are having a great week, mine is busy and seems to be going by in a blur. As it is already the 3rd week of July and on a daily basis I see people pinning Fall recipes, decorations and inspiration, I thought I would revisit my Summer…
Hello! Did you have a nice 4th of July? I have had a great stay- cation since Friday, lots of sun, fun and food. Maybe a little too much food. I don’t know about you but I tend to go a little overboard during the holidays, I eat a ton of food that I do…
Summer is finally here, at least on the calendar, the weather not so much. No matter because with all of the crazy rain I have been able to spend a little time thinking about my bucket list. For the last few years I have made a list of the things that I absolutely want to…
Image Anthropologie There are certain items that are considered essential for summer, like shorts, sun dresses, sandals, swim suits and in my words, espadrilles. I got my first pair in 1989 while staying with friends in the Basque region of France, apparently these comfy canvas shoes with rope heels originated in Spain in the Basque…
Good morning! I have been lucky enough my entire life to life by water, either on the Great Lakes or the Ocean. After all these years of trucking back and forth I have learned a few things. A great bag, big enough to hold all of the necessities but not too big to carry, is…
Good morning! I hope that you had a wonderful holiday weekend. As I mentioned, we had friends in town and it was nice to relax, not to work(which is sometimes a challenge when you both work from home), and do whatever we wanted all weekend. We we went to dinner at a fabulous Italian restaurant,…
Good morning! Summer is just around the corner and to me summer is all about family fun, long days at the ocean, getting out on my paddle board, lazy days in the sun reading and lots of food at barbecues, parties, and family dinners. Pepper Crusted Bacon Cheeseburger This weekend is Memorial Day and although…
Memorial day is just a couple of week away and it is considered the “official” start to summer. For many that means lazy days at the beach, or sitting on the porch with a glass of sweet tea or lemonade and a stack of books, it also means barbecues and parties. Blush Lily I found…
Good morning! I am taking the day off to enjoy the tiny bit of sun and nice weather that we have had the entire weekend. It was a windy, rainy crazy weekend here on the coast. We spent the entire day yesterday picking up the limbs, yard debris and mess left from all of the…
Good morning! I hope that you are well and having a great week. I have been catching up at home and work and frankly need a day to relax so I am happy the weekend is upon us. I am still finding it hard to believe that it is just a week to September! In…
Good morning! Now that it is officially sumer my mind is spinning with the possibilities of adventure, long weekends at the beach, grilled dinners, and lots of lazy afternoons reading. Image via Pinterest from Canoe Bay I have so many Summer thoughts and ideas I even made a Pinterest board to keep them organized. Image from Inside…
Good morning and a very happy weekend! For many it is a three day weekend and I am sure that there are barbecue’s, beaches and lots of down time on the schedule. My weekend will include much of the same for the unofficial start of Summer. Classic Bacon Cheeseburger Image from the Candid Appetite This…
