Hello dear friends. Hope you are having a great week. I am delighted to report that Massachusetts is expecting another gorgeous weekend.
One of the many great things that I appreciate about my new town is the fact that it is the home of five beaches. Yup, five.
How many times have the Mister and I visited the beach? One time and it was 40 degrees. A little chilly for my swim dress.
I'm the cute one.
One of the things that I put on my summer bucket list besides watching more educational shows on Bravo, consuming more carbs, and not lifting a chubby finger when it comes to exercise, is enjoying a summer picnic with the Mister. I have a sneaking suspicion, the first three things will be accomplished.
Not so sure about the last.
I scrolled through Pinterest for inspiration. Whoa! That's enough exercise for a week!

To me, a picnic is not a picnic without a nice bottle of vino.

Sorry to get off track, but aren't these wine sippy cups the cutest? Great for a picnic, but also cute hostess gift with a bottle of wine.
Wish I was here!

It would take me months to make this. Let's just say I never won any awards for my sand castles at Fairfield Beach!

Can you tell what my favorite food group at a picnic is?

I wouldn't even care what was on the menu if I was seated at this gorgeous table!

When I think of the Mister and me basking in the sun at a romantic picnic at the beach,
But in reality, I think this is closer to the truth.
What's on your bucket list this summer?
BTW... I just opened an instagram account called what else but.. PREPPYEMPTYNESTER. If you follow me I will follow you back!
Have a great weekend!

HAHAHA so funny....love that sippy cup! What is the beach without some good food and maybe a little wine! You can be my beach partner any day, we think alike. I am headed back to the beach after lunch, trying to stay out of the sun today, have gotten too much but I always say..how can something that feels so good be bad for you!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the oil; I love it too...especially in the winter. So far, I love the MAC foundation I told you about, but I will let you know more later because I have actually only worn it once. If you would be so kind as to send some of your weather down here, I would appreciate it. It is supposed to be a balmy 100+ starting tomorrow through early next week. Why can't the weather in OK just stay between 55 and 70?
ReplyDeleteLove the wine sippy cup, and the Mister needs to just get busy, suck it up and take you to the beach for a picnic. Otherwise, you and Sista will just have to spend your days shopping and drinking! Actually, that does not sound all that badly either.
ROFL...love the sippy cup. The table setting dug into the sand is amazing! The closest we will come to this is a picnic in the park during one of their free summer concerts!
ReplyDeleteKatie, Katie, Katie! You do make me laugh! Love the mental image vs the 'reality' image. BTW RHNJ SUNDAY!!!!!

ReplyDeleteMo and Katie, Sunday night glasses raised in solidarity for the RHNJ!
