Holiday Weekend


What are you plans for the long weekend?

 Mine include: cooking, working, spending time with my husband, 
going on a run to get ready for my first race (eek!), 
sleeping in, and planning for an upcoming trip.

I hope your weekend is lovely!

Banana Egg Pancakes


Today I get to share with you my favorite 
weekend breakfast: Banana Egg Pancakes

They are very healthy and easy to make!  
You mix together two eggs and one banana (per person). 
Pour small amounts into a greased frying pan over medium-low.  
You will want to keep an eye on them and flip as needed.

 If you have a thing for sweets like I do you can add a couple of chocolate chips.  
This is definitely a favorite for my husband too!

Enjoy!

Calligraphy Chairs


I want this to be the next big thing.  
Instead of place cards you write everyone's name on their chair!
This. is. Genius.  (and gorgeous!)


This gorgeous idea came from the talented team of Karson Butler Events.
Their website is incredible and I would highly recommend taking a look.

Wish List


1. This ring is beautiful but maybe we'll opt for an etsy version for our one year anniversary.  A girl can never have too many rings.

2. If I could design my dream purse this would be it.  The shape, the color, LOVE

3. I'm loving these fancy earbuds.  However, I tend to destroy, tangle, and loose mine so I just can't quite splurge on these...

4.  I'm loving wrap sweaters.  If you remember my old blog (here) you'll know that I have always loved ballet.  The sweater above is simply perfect for the winter time.

Summer Berry Picking


This weekend Justin and I had the best summer date.  
We drove 30 minutes outside of the city and into the mountains and ended at Bybee Berry Farm.  
We spent the afternoon picking blueberries in their quaint little orchard. 


We then continued our afternoon to a park next to a slow flowing river and picked blackberries.  
Our bellies were full of delicious antioxidants and tided us over until we got home 
and made a delicious cobbler.  I will share the recipe in a post sometime soon.  

Our summer is jam packed as we try and take advantage of this 
gorgeous Pacific Northwest weather.  Its warm and sunny so you can spend all day 
outside and not be too scorched.  



How have you been spending your summer weekends?
