weekend review

I think as the summer comes to an end the weekends feel shorter and shorter. I wish this past one could have lasted for days longer. My boyfriend and I went away for our anniversary and we had so much fun dining, drinking, swimming, relaxing, and just spending quality time alone together. Our trip ended yesterday at a burger joint on the beach that was extremely delicious. As soon as I got home I had way too much work to do, but weekends like the one we had make doing work that much easier. Here’s to Monday!

If you’ve read my About Me page, you know meatballs are my absolute favorite.

It was far too humid to do anything but a slicked back bun with my hair.

the simple things in life

I love when I find pleasure in the simplest of things, such as the most beautiful red tomatoes, or celebrating for no particular reason. I think it’s these little moments that make our crazy lives even that much better. This weekend was hectic, but a few ‘simpler’ moments stood out in my mind.
