Weekend Indulgences

Mondays are never easy.  They’re made all the more difficult, however, after a weekend where every meal is eaten outdoors (including this new staple), afternoon naps are met with a cool breeze and there’s a fresh stack of unread magazines by the couch.  Friday can’t come soon enough.

    Love the plates and the shrimp salad looks delish!

    I did your manicure yesterday and I LOVE IT…I would have never tried that pink before. Is it ok if I link to you in my post this week? http://www.itsunbeweavable.com

    Loving the plates! So fun for summer, and that shrimp salad looks delish!
    I tried your manicure this weekend (I have been paying for it and you inspired me to save the $40 for something else!) and I love it…I used the Essie you did as well…is it ok if I link back to you in my post this week?

    Love the trays you have on your table! That color combination is great. The avocados made me think of the missed guacamole that never got made this weekend because of a text I missed from my husband while at the market.

    Sounds divine! A stack of unread magazines is quite possibly my idea of heaven! The recipe looks delicious, too!

    I copied you and bought that tray from IKEA, it’s so my style! I love decorating with bold prints (although I rarely wear them…hmmm….)

    the yellow plates are darling… however, i’m dying to know where those adorable wooden serving tongs (with the shrimp salad) are from!

    sur la table is having a major sale and i am sorely tempted by their summer entertaining wares!
