Long weekends, summer planning, the end of school… how is it all coming so fast?! Good stuff, of course. Summer is my favorite!
I felt happily deep in it last weekend, when I got to fly down to Palm Springs with some girlfriends for a weekend at the Ace. The pool is such a fun scene. They had these frozen watermelon margaritas with a chile rim that I can’t wait to recreate. Spicy, salty, sweet, and cold!
Any fun plans for the long weekend? Some links (and sales) just in case…
Speaking of pools, this one looks dreamy!
The easiest way to organize your stuff. (Ha!)
Need a relatively affordable graduation gift (to go with the cash in the envelope)?

What are you streaming lately? I’ve gotten hooked on Casual. I love the lead actress, who is believably a grown up with a teenage daughter while still being gorgeous.
A veggie bridal bouquet (would also be a nice alternative to flowers for any time!)
I’m working on an updated sunscreen roundup, and it’s been suggested that I have to order Japanese Nivea before making any decisions.
