Hello, hello, loves! I hope your weekend has been a fabulous one!
Today was one of many adventures…both of the literary and culinary variety!
First up – reading!…I make no claims that my tastes are high-brow! haha
Side-note: Did anyone else have SSR time in elementary school (Sustained Silent Reading)??
First up…some necessary magazines. Fashion + Food!
+
Also – a trip to B&N led to the purchase of two books that I’ve wanted to dive into for quite some time now…
Love Chelsea Handler - I think she’s hilarious, and I’ve been a fan loooong before Chelsea Lately.
I think I have a tendency to lean towards and admire women (authors, celebs, every day peeps etc.) who are funny, smart (even if they don’t use SAT language on a daily basis), don’t take themselves too seriously, …most have quite the potty mouth, and all are really strong women. Love them. haha
I never said I was reading the classics…. haha
On to food:
First, isn’t this the most gorgeous apple??
Of course, Honeydew was a part of my morning.
Lovin’ the fact that these cranberries are sweetened with apple juice! They’re a little more tart, but I’m not missing the tons of added sugar sometimes present in dried fruit!
Also – seeing these Stroopwafels brought back memories of my trip to the Netherlands and visiting my brother… so delicious!
Dinner was a Thai peanut pasta with broccoli. So delicious – light and perfect for a warm summer night.
My most exciting moment of the day though – stumbling upon the NEW LARAS!! Weeee! I have been looking for these everywhere, and I haven’t dug in yet…I feel like I have to save them for something special…like a midnight snack? haha
- What have been some of your newest food finds?
- What’s on your summer reading list??










I’ve been really aching to pick up that issue of Glamour! Must buy tonight!
Hmm, most of my summer reads are Political Science-y/Human Rights related books (yuh huh, I’m a nerd).
Love it – and I have yet to get all the way through the mag! It’s huuuge!
We are reading twins, seriously. I love to listen to the Chelsea books by CD because it makes it 10x more hilarious. It’s like my dysfunctional mother is reading aloud to me, it’s awesome. And I remember SSR! That was my favorite!
Ohh – I never even thought of books on CD! I would love to hear her read them!!
