Weekend Recap

Happy it's not Monday and only a 4 day work week!!

I am still recovering from this past weekend at the beach with all of my college friends. We ate, drank, met a BRAVO housewife and bronzed. It was definitely a weekend for the books.

I brought my magic bullet with me so we could have frozen daiquiris and margaritas! Probably the best move I have made this summer ;-)



Here are some drink combos that were created this weekend:

Pineapple-Berry Daiquiris:
malibu pineapple
bacardi
strawberries/raspberries
huckleberry syrup
pineapple chunks
ice

Strawberry Skinny Girl Frozen Margs:
skinny girl margarita
strawberries
ice

Strawberry Mojitos:
sprite
mint
malibu pineapple
strawberries
bacardi

Lots of delicious food was consumed too! Including ahi tuna wraps, black bean burgers with guacamole, and sushi!!



I have eaten lots of sushi lately - my mom took me and CL out for sushi yesterday when we got home too. I have been getting an eel roll and avocado roll with miso soup to start! (with a few bites of california and dynamite) Eel is definitely my favorite sushi ingredient!

In between eating and drinking were lots of opportunities to catch some UV rays!



Oh, and we met Kat from Real Housewives of DC. Definitely not my favorite city (NJ and Bev Hills), but I now can check off meeting a BRAVO celebrity from my bucket list. SCORE!


I'm glad to be home though! Now I can recover this week before I head to the beach for a 5 day vacay with CL's family this Saturday! (i know, too lucky)



I did come home to 16 roma tomatoes and 6 cantaloupe in my garden!! This one is the biggest, with 3 right behind it in size! The other ones are babies.

Hope everyone had a fabulous 4th of July!! I am making shrimp fried rice for dinner tonight for my WIAW post tomorrow!! Can't wait!

  2. Thanks for the drink recipes! I need to get a magic bullet. I just assumed it would be crappy since it's sold on tv, but I believe I was mistaken!
