Summer time = Visits From Friends. We have had a spectacular time with friends and I can only hope that we have just as many fun times with friends this fall.
2. Penny Talk by Essie
Metallic colors are back, ladies. Essie has some fabulous colors to choose from this season. This girl is hooked on "Penny Talk" ($8). My only complaint is that the nail polish chips very easily (within 3-4 days).
3. High Tea at The Lobby (Peninsula Hotel)
There is nothing better than catching up with friends over high tea. No one does it better than The Lobby. The service, the food, the string quartet . . . is there anything not to like about the experience? I think not.
4. Antique Taco
My new favorite taco joint. Here is a pic of my favorite menu item (the crispy fish tacos):
5. Fresh Baked Bread
I purchased a bread machine in late July. I love it so much. I make fresh bread every Sunday evening. I use All Recipes to find most of my bread machine bread recipes and have only been disappointed once.
6. Pretty Little Liars
OMG. Did you see the summer finale??? My brain is still spinning out of control over the Betr-A-yal!
7. The Art Institute of Chicago
I find it so relaxing to spend the day or even just a couple of hours at ARTIC. The collections are incredible and the exhibits are always well done.
8. Travelzoo
I find the BEST deals and ideas for trips on this website. Most recently, I found (and booked!!!) an outstanding vacation package for Peru.
9. An Organized Closet
This is really an on-going project (it is not nearly completed), but I am loving going through the things in my closet in an effort to simplify my life.
10. Trendy Earrings
I know I just said that I am trying to simplify my life and purchasing more earrings doesn't really seem to be in line with that goal, however, I LOVE taking "old" outfits and making them new again with a new pair of earrings! My new favorite pair have hot pink feathers and cost a whopping $2.50 from Old Navy (I am channeling the character Aria from PLL . . . ).
