Weekend In Five Pics







Hi there! How was your weekend? My weekend was great! This past week and weekend, I started focusing on my goals I made for this summer - things like investing more time in building and maintaining relationships, taking more risks- both big and small, doing new things and just having more fun! Here are some things that I did...

I ordered a print of that pic I took in NYC of the Empire State Building. It reminds me of all the things I find fascinating about the city- like the sights, the sounds and people watching. It also reminds me of how much fun I had during my trip.

I had a 4 hour dinner on a patio of one of my favorite Mexican restaurants with a good friend that I hadn't seen in a while. It included wine and good conversation (obviously). 

I added some florals, coral and stripes to my closet. Those who know me well know that prints and bold colors are difficult for me. But I'm working on it. I even wore one of the outfits during a weekend photo shoot for my first outfit post! The post will go up soon, but you can see an outtake here...

Last week, I made homemade lemon macarons for the first time. I have been wanting to make macarons for a long time, but was afraid I would screw them up. But I followed a recipe in this book and they turned out great! I wanted to focus on the process of making them, so I didn't take many photos for you. But I will be sure to take some the next time I make them!

I do, however, have photos of my favorite summer salad that I will share with you tomorrow!

Do you have any goals, big or small that you are working on this summer?
