Happy, happy Summer Fridays! Where we’re talking all things summer and Friday. The best combination, if you ask me!
EATING & DRINKING
I’m going to attempt a strawberry basil gimlet this weekend!! I’ve got cartons of cartons of strawberries and a giant bag full of basil and I need to put it all to good use!
MAKING & BAKING
I did a huge grocery shop the other day (Aldi AND Trader Joe’s! Oh yea!). So I’ve got plans to grill up a sourdough pizza and bake some of my grandpa’s famous Irish Soda Bread.
Deb’s Strawberry Summer Cake strikes again! We are celebrating my sisters, Sarah, birthday this weekend and since she wants an ice cream cake, I told my stepmom I’d make a “real” cake. And what better cake than the perfectly light and deliciously summery strawberry cake? I can’t think of anything.
SHOPPING
I ordered some cute, but simple, Thank You cards from Target. And I’ve got my eyes on these amazing trousers/pants(?) from Madewell. I’ll be making a stop this weekend to try them on!
LISTENING
My latest and greatest playlist is my nAughty Legends (Girl Power) playlist. It’s got the best of the best from the 2000s and I’ve got it on repeat.
WATCHING
Matt and I were in full-on binge mode for White Lotus on HBO. It’s a 6-episode mini series and the 6th episode comes out this Sunday! It’s weird and often makes me feel a little uncomfortable but we’re hooked. And I wish there was more! Everyone is highly unlikeable.
PLANNING

We have finally re-booked our trip to Zion National Park! I can’t wait. I’m in full on plan-mode with hikes to do, views to see, and places to eat. Drop me a comment if you have any recommendations!
What’s on your agenda for this weekend?! Lay it on me.
