SUMMER.
Why you gotta be going by so fast?! Slow down, gurl.
Seriously, it’s already AUGUST. My final semester of college starts back up in a few weeks and I don’t want it to. I just want Oprah to walk into class the first day back and yell YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE HERE, AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE HERE, AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE HERE and have one of those people she yells at be me. And then I’ll scream and cry and collapse on the floor and have someone drag my body out of the classroom. I’m gonna have to The Secret that.
Until that event changes my life I’ve got three weeks to watch a bunch of The Hills noshame, Get POPSICLE WEEK happening, and a head down to SF to see family, new freeeends, and get my shop on. If you want in on that popsicle action go ahead and shoot me an email. Let’s make it happen.
Until summer’s over though, let’s just grocery list.
First up, Gabriel and his out of the park styling. He made some super simple yet delicious looking lemon honey ricotta on toast under raspberries. I need that for breakfast right now. (via The Artful Desperado)
Tracy went and made some popcorn. Then threw some coconut and coconut oil in there like it was nobody’s business and somehow convinced me I need a whirly pop. (via Shutterbean)
Adrianna just went out and made dreams come true with charred sweet corn fritters. Seriously, MTV True Life: get those in my face right now. (via A Cozy Kitchen)
Jonathan, you had me at crispy flatbread topped with seasoned meat and veggies. Boom. Done. Gimme some. (via The Candid Appetite)
Izy just went ahead and put BROWN BUTTER AND MALT POWDER IN ICE CREAM. RAMONA SINGER EYESFACE HUGE DEAL. Also check out her reaction to my croutons on her link love. GOLD. (via Top With Cinnamon)
Megan knocked it outta tha park this week with a) mimosaritas and brunchiladas shutyourmouth and b) cutie packaging for some vegan chocolate ice cream with chunky goodness. Megan move closer right now. (via Take A Megabite)
Everyone’s all like, what do I do with all these peaches? and Nicole’s like grill ’em and smother them in sea salt bourbon caramel like nobody’s watching. I added that last part. It’s how I do. (via Dula Notes)
Deep Dish Pizza. I don’t need to say anymore except T-SHIRT CANNON THAT TO ME. (via Minimalist Baker)
Ashley went out and said I’m putting quinoa on my coffee cake and now I want to do the same. (via edible perspective)
Jessica made sure I had another reason to love mac and cheese: STOVETOP BUFFALO CHICKEN SHELLS AND CHEESE. You know how much I like making foods have babies. I just, I can’t handle it. (via How Sweet It Is)
The croutons I made this week need some company. I think Megan’s insanely easy caesar dressing might just be their BFF. (via Passports and Pancakes)
Last but not least is Joy’s attempt to get me to make candy and curse in the kitchen even more. I like your style gurl, but we already know that. (via Joy the Baker)
For music this week we’re gonna blast some Justin Timberlake aka J-Swag aka JT Pantydropper. This is one of the bonus tracks off his current album if you buy the deluxe version. Did I buy the deluxe? Obvs not or I would have showed this song to you guys earlier. Pandora showed it to me so It’s been on my Spotify playlist playing alternately between like 9 Mariah Carey Songs. This is that song that you dance and sing to while grilling so you can terrify the cat or dog you’re singing to. I have a human I can sing to, but he prefers some Robyn or Kylie.
