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.

gosh, i envy your day
Looks like a delightful, laid back weekend! The roasted shrimp and orzo looks incredible - I’ll have to give it a try.
Oh Emily, tell me about it! I am suffering this morning. I am going to click on your recipe right now…..
Sounds like a pretty perfect weekend. Ours was too, complete with free slurpees as well. (The plates are awesome!)

I totally, and completely agree….
It looks like you had a fantastic weekend!
i couldn’t agree more.
The slurpee picture is GORGEOUS. What are the chances that your nail polish would so perfectly match the straw? And ripe avocados have to be one of the loveliest summer indulgences…
So true! A great weekend makes Monday morning even harsher. That sweet little kitty is just too cute!
You got the Slurpee! And you won my giveaway, too, so that should brighten your Monday. I’ll send the certificate to your email, so be watching for it.

I love weekends like this:)
just checked out that recipe and it looks yum. i love how your straw matches your nails in the slurpee pic:) where did you get free slurpees? my fave was the white cherry frost icee at target that they no longer have:( love your plates!
Love the yellow plates and the sweet black cat- a panther in training, I’m sure. Hope your week is just as beautiful!
Your place-settings are awesome. Great color choice and fabulous textiles.
I don’t particularly like shrimp, but that salad looks pretty tasty. And I got a free slurpee too!!! Yumm…
What a lovely weekend! That recipe sounds amazing! I’m going to have to try it!!

Tell me about Mondays!
The only thing getting me through it is the fact that I’ll be on my way to Amelia Island on Thursday : - )
Where we will, incidentally, be enjoying much of my Momma’s famous shrimp pasta salad, ha!
Yay for Mondays…
oh come on. Sunbathing on the roof and no fashion outfit shot!!
That’s not good enough ; )

Hey, could you please tell us the recipe for your shrimp salad? It looks really good
Loving your yellow plates, and YUM at the avocados! These photographs are so beautiful
Your kitten looks sooo adorable!
Nice - I couldn’t agree more. I adore your roof view, as well as shrimp salad and avocados. I haven’t eaten food in 8 days, but I assure you when I do, I will be doing so outdoors (um, weather-permitting!)
aww, what a lovely weekend.
Sounds like a perfect weekend to me.
great pics!! love weekends. hate mondays.
you have the most fabulous life!
I love those yellow plates! They are like a food all in themselves … where did you find them?
I heard about the free slurpee day … did you know you can get free pints of Starbucks Ice Cream right now through Facebook? Delicous new flavors too … my blog http://www.TrimmedandTaylored.blogspot.com to see how!
Please let us know about the plates!
I’m not sure that mine posted so I will try again … sorry if it is twice!
But love the plates (look like fresh fruit!) and want to know where you found them!
Also, if you loved the free slurpees, Starbucks is giving away free pints of their new flavors of ice cream! Delicous! My blog http://www.trimmedandtaylored.blogspot.com to see how to get one!
Free slurpee?! Why don’t we have those in my country?
What a fabulous weekend! That shrimp salad looks amazing!

like the look of that slurpee…I love the ones they do at the beach near where I live, they’re a combination of neon blue and pink crushed ice and taste like heaven and a billion additives ^^

Those plates are gorgeous!
salad are always combine with summers, and i wonder why sometimes… but i would say prawn salads are the best ever.
There is nothing more decadent than a catnap. Accompanied by free Slurpees, to be sure!
Love those yellow plates- those would perk up any Monday!
4 days til Friday
so totally agree with you. love the placemats and the napkins!
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

Not sure this went through the first time-
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?
xo

oooh those plates are perfection
Friday can’t come soon enough…but it always comes!
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.
What great photography. I love avocados and slurpees are perfect for hot summer days!
Sounds divine! A stack of unread magazines is quite possibly my idea of heaven! The recipe looks delicious, too!
Very fetchingly!
i want to steal your weekend and make it my own!
those days are the best!
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….)
what a glorious weekend. now only 4 1/2 days away
cheers,
s
Now that is one good weekend!
Yay for free slurpees on 7/11. Your black kitty looks like my black kitty
Where did you get your placemat/napkins?
Loving your photos here. That salad looks delish! (so does the slurpee)

Looks like you had a great weekend! Yay to free slushies and cat naps!
Yes, please share the source for those yellow plates! They’re fabulous! Happy Monday
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!
I love slurpies, I was disappointed it was soooo small…still cool they were giving something away free. I love cats!
