Hey there! Back to the grind, right?
After a lovely week in Denver and a beautiful Bridal Shower, it was really hard to get back to my normal routine. Go figure.
But! The countdown to the Big Day is still going. Ready for this? Only THREE months!!
Here are a few things I’m obsessed with lately and lovin and that I want to share with you:
Tiny “midi” rings, or knuckle rings, and pinky rings. I wasn’t sure if I’d love this trend, so I bought some really inexpensive rings from H&M to try it out! I love it (at least at the moment I do). Only problem? I have to hold my breath while I strategically wash my hands just so the midi-ring won’t fall off. Just something to think about…
Last night was my fiance and my anniversary (dating). We celebrated three years together and one year engaged and had a lovely meal. I had the cedar-plank salmon, asparagus and Brussel sprouts, all roasted in a wood oven. He had a spicy chicken pizza, with super thin crust, cooked in the wood oven also. We toasted with a glass of wine (me) and a glass of house-brewed beer (him).
I got back to my Spin class and was so happy! It was really tough after taking a vacation for over a week, but it was just what I was needing. Now…if only I hadn’t slept past my alarm and gone this morning too…oh well.
Back to my interesting “all in one bowl” dinners. This one was a spinach salad topped with baked BBQ chicken, walnuts, tomatoes, raspberries (do it!), blanched green beans and my Everything Bagel Seasoning.
I posted this recipe for Cranberry-Orange Oat Muffins, straight from grandma’s kitchen. I love the fall/winter flavors being highlighted in the summer!
Hope you all had a great post-Fourth week! What are your plans for the weekend? My fiance and I are carrying our anniversary celebration to Nashville for the day tomorrow and I’m so excited!
fun!! we’re going to the zoo tonight with my family and there is a band playing which should be fun and tomorrow we are going to our friends’ for dinner!

I love midi rings! My mother has always worn a ring that way, so funny it’s a trend now.

How cute are those midi rings…especially on you with those slender fingers! I’m jealous–I wish my hands were more feminine looking.

The midi rings look cute on you – they so don’t ‘work’ on me and I kinda wish they did now 🙂

You have the prettiest fingernails! Why can’t mine be all the same size/shape like that?! I tend to go through phases with jewelry, but for the most part, I never stick with anything except earrings. Rings just get in the way with the amount of times I have to wash my hands at work! 🙁
I’m intrigued by this BBQ chicken, tomato, and raspberry combo…must try!
