Friday Five

 Crazy to think that this is already the last Friday in June. I'm afraid to blink or it's going to be September and summer will be over. It's been a gorgeous (albeit hot) week in the midwest and we're hoping for a rain free weekend ahead. One of my favorite things about St. Louis is the abundance of hydrangeas growing everywhere. They thrive here.

The weekend for us entails heading to Forest Park for some outdoor time, trying out a new restaurant downtown and relaxation. A lazy summer vibe is just what we're hoping for.

 Can't get enough of this Bauble Bar set. My favorite purchase to date

We had a blast in Chicago. I love that city and can't wait to plan the next trip!

These are the best new chips from Trader Joe's. Beyond addicting and tastes good with anything from salsa to hummus. 
After a failed attempt last year in growing patio tomatoes, I'm happy to report round #2 is going much better! If you're looking to grow them on a patio, the Better Bush patio tomatoes are the way to go. B- thanks for keeping these alive :)
I'm a big fan of the Tone It Up girls and their new workout dvd is fabulous!
The workouts are surprisingly fun and they'll have you sweating in no time. (Sunkissed Abs is my favorite for your core)


How're yall spending the last weekend in June?

  2. Mmm love those Trader Joes chips... Last time I was there I also got their reduced guilt guac. It's made with Greek yogurt, and it tastes just as good!

  11. Loving any and all chips from trader joe's. I grabbed a bag of the spicy flax seed tortilla chips last time I was there and I love! Yay for your tomato plant. We also have one that is doing pretty well this year. Although, we are waiting for our tomatoes to turn red!!
