My Favorite Holiday!

4 May

birthday trifecta

 

May 4th is basically the best day ever. It’s the day of celebrating the birthdays of THREE of my favorite people! Happy birthday to my hilarious, one-of-a-kind father, Larry … to my darling pumpkin, Rena who never fails to brighten my day (and with whom I had the pleasure of hugging and dining alongside today!) … and to the stinkiest cat/wolf/puppy/monkey/jerk I’ve ever known, Vinnie. What a marvelous day.

The Last Hoorah

27 Apr

The last single one, anyway…

“We did Vegas in our twenties. Our thirties call for spa days.” Stephanie, Allison, Sarah, Kim, Reza, Andrea and Cami made today the most perfect Bachelorette I could have dreamed of. No one has better friends than the gal in the sash.

Non-Reefer Madness

Today we hiked to the waterfall (where I conquered some height-related fears)…

We mini-golfed (where I lost horribly)…

And we ended the day with a fro yo (after a mini road trip to Guernville).

Lets be honest. Any actual 420 celebrator would probably not have made it to the first of our adventures. For more proof, I will also add that when we got home we prepared and finalized our wedding vows.

Take that, stoners!

Go, shorty.

Made these strawberry shortcakes tonight. So good. So amazing. So irresponsible. Used THIS recipe (but I added a tablespoon of vanilla extract to the milk and egg mixture step). You should do it. Totally worth it.

Forever.

Forever or for as long as these tattoos last, whichever comes first.

Watch out, Venus!

Eating healthy, crash diets, remembering I’m supposed to fit in a very specifically sized dress… I just am not on top of it. I figured healthy restaurant in choice would lead me down the right path…and then I found the avocado veggie burger on sourdough. I recommend it. Good thing I have a great seamstress!

There’s no way this is going to be anything but a stale waste of money if I try saving it, right? RIGHT?!

Such a nice day with my Kim today! Worthy of double dessert celebration!
