Link Love and a Bike Ride

What a weekend of beautiful weather! I don’t know where you are in the world, but around me it was sunny and cool and just plain perfect….

I took this panoramic photo at a nearby park, just as the sun was setting; it’s my favorite time of day when the sky is turning crazy, lovely colors.

Do you ever feel like you get signs from the universe? Here are a few that came through for me this weekend. (Okay, the sparkly flip flops were just plain fun, but they made me happy so that’s a sign too.)

On Sunday I went for an exhilarating bike ride to Sea Bright. There’s nothing better than strapping on my headphones and heading out to explore the outdoors on a sunny Fall day.

Link Love and Chilling Out

This weekend was all about chilling out, visiting with friends, slowing down and taking a break. And what do you do most when you’re chilling out? EAT, of course!

I took a picture of some of my ‘cocktails’ for the weekend. The Synergy Kombucha is one of my favorites–good for you and tastes good too.

My blender broke on Thursday while I was making my morning smoothie (yikes!!), so I got myself a new hyper powered Ninja that should blend just about anything. Giddy up.

Last but not least, I found vegan ice cream at Cookman Creamery. Oh my. It was fantastic: mint chocolate chip, made with coconut milk…I think I’m in love.

Here are a few pictures from my trip to Ptown on Friday to visit my sister. We had a leisurely lunch and good talk, it was a lovely afternoon. The scenery at that place never fails to take my breath away…

I captured a nice moment with my beautiful friend H on Saturday; isn’t she pretty? I couldn’t resist taking some pictures of the amazing weather that day. The puffy clouds reminded me of cool fall days to come…
