Link Love and a Yoga Festival

Well this weekend was a bit of a bust.  I was in bed for most of it with an amazingly delbilitating sinus infection that involved a fever and a rash; I’m kind of stubborn when it comes to conventional medication–I prefer to try my natural remedies first.

I was doing the neti pot dance, guzzling apple cider vinegar (the raw kind) and popping amino acids and vitamins like candy.  I’m happy to say it DID work, but after the 2nd night, I caved and took Nyquil before bed.  That stuff is worth it’s weight in gold!!  So the pictures are slim, but here are a few below.

Happy Fall!  Did you see the harvest moon? (forgive the bad photo, I took it from my parking lot)

I crawled out of bed Sunday to check out the Yoga Festival by the Sea.  There were about 500 yogis doing 108 sun salutations to raise money for various charities.  (It’s a part of the Global Mala event.)  It was such an inspiring and uplifting scene on a beautiful Sunday….

After everyone worked up an appetite (and I just watched), we headed over for some eats at Porta.   It was a perfect way to wrap up the weekend!

Happy Fall!  The Autumnal Equinox started things off yesterday.

What a great gift idea, so you never forget!

GMOs (AKA “Frankenfood”) won’t pass the cost of food labeling on to the consumer.  Hooray.

Are you too connected to your gadgets?  Is it time to shut down for a bit?

Does the neti pot really work? (It certainly works for me but here’s some Web MD for ya.)

Link Love and A Concert

All I have to say is: JOHN MAYER.  My sister got me tickets for my birthday (so nice, right?)  Although it wasn’t the concert I expected (he played waayyyy too much of his new, slower stuff) it was still a really fun night.

Tailgate? Check! VIP? Check! Clear skies? Check! Check! Check!  We had a blast as you can see below. And that super moon?  Well, it was the icing on the turtle cupcake.

This weekend C and I met his friends for some sushi and saki bombs at Taka.  They had some really innovative rolls there–the crab apple had tart green apple in it that made it so delicious!

Turning 40 this weekend wasn’t so bad afterall…

Here’s a look at before and after getting my makeup done at MAC.

I wanted a new look for a new decade!

Link Love and Pictures {And some perfect weather.}

I don’t know about you, but here in NJ, we had an amazing weekend of weather–hot during the day and cool at night.  I love that feeling in the summer when I can sleep with the windows open and it’s cool enough to need a blanket.  Isn’t life is grand?

This is a pretty cool drumming circle that happens every week in Asbury. I loved their slogan: “Where the beat meets yer feet”.

Pizza + C + boardgames = FUN!

 Have you heard the buzz about the cicadas?  The “magicicadas”  are coming above ground after 17 years and they’re  seen only in the eastern half of the United States, nowhere else in the world.

I can get lost on this Humans of New York website for hours.  They tell simple and quick stories about people living their life in the Big Apple.

The whole concept of epigenetics is fascinating to me.  Here’s an article on why your DNA is not your destiny.

This is a very cool article about Rick Rubin and his creative process in general, and more recently as he worked on Kanye West’s most recent album “Yeezus”.

What’s your favorite thing to do in Philadelphia?  C and I are planning an adventure to visit the city of brotherly love and even though I went to school right outside of Philly, I’d love to hear about  your favorite spots in the comments below.

Link Love and Pictures {Week Ending July 21}

Asbury was on fire this weekend!  Literally, it was so hot it felt like the whole city was up in flames. A morning bike ride on Saturday included some interesting slack liners (I know it’s hard to see in the top picture), a cappucino for C from the Biscuit and a free body scan on the boardwalk for skin cancer. Score! (And we walked away feeling good about our clean skin bill of health)

Later on, the moon was full, and it felt like one of those hot summer nights.  We met up with some friends (old and new) and enjoyed the beautiful sky.  The hot weather dampened our brow, but not our spirits!
