For Eyes.


Here I am, loving my new Perry Ellis glasses. A few weeks ago I walked into Costco for more contacts, randomly picked up a pair of glasses and instantly fell in love with them. It was just that simple. What’s even better is the crazy affordable price point and finding out they were actually men’s glasses. Finally something to fit my big head. Seriously, it’s huge.

Onto other nerd speak, I just started reading A Sunshine When She’s Gone and can’t put it down. If it was acceptable to read during pilates I would be.

Happy Wednesday!

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
1 jalapeño (with seeds), finely diced
3 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tbsp vegetable oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Directions: Mix cucumber, red onion, cilantro, mint and jalapeño in a medium bowl. Stir in lime juice and oil. Season to taste with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper, and more lime juice, if desired.



Enjoy!

3 Things.


After a long couple of weeks, a relaxing weekend is exactly what was needed. I forget sometimes just how important it is to unplug* and simply enjoy the ones you are with. Here are a few things that made my weekend that much sweeter.

*I have a new iPhone and have no clue how to use it.


1. Attending a concert on Friday night only to end up enjoying local opening band, Forrest Day, even more.

2. Ziggy eagerly awaiting my mom's arrival to the beach house

3. A lovely little walk down by the Yacht Harbor.
