It’s been another busy week for me. The beach, running errands, making phone calls, a mid-week holiday and an end of the week nail appointment this morning.
My sisters and I kicked off the week with a perfect beach day! I followed that up with a Tuesday in Colts Neck, NJ with my cousin. We had lunch and did a little shopping at Delicious Orchards. Do NOT ever let me in there again when I am craving summer fruit. I had to make serious room in my fridge after that trip! But man are the peaches I bought delicious! Mike has also been enjoying the cookies and cider donuts that I brought home for him.
Our 4th of July was boring. I spent the majority of the day in my bedroom with a migraine. I picked the wrong holiday to have a pounding headache! Thankfully the sound of our air conditioner muted out the rock music coming from our neighbors and the firecrackers. Thankfully I have a wonderful husband-to-be who checked on me throughout the day and left Gatorade next to the bed for me. Even after I came out of hiding, he was still catering to me. I should feel like crap more often (no, I take that back)! I’m sure the 90 degree weather we’ve been having was a big factor in this week’s migraine. It’s been hot, sticky and gross!
I felt much better yesterday and headed to Westfield for Thursday grocery shopping with my cousin. My cousin picks up a Fresh Box every Thursday from Alan’s Orchard. I usually go in and pray they have an extra box I can buy off of them. Alan put me on top of his e-mail list this week and granted me a spot on the Fresh Box program. Starting next Thursday, I am officially picking up my own reserved Fresh Box full of local fruits and veggies! This week’s box has already inspired me to make a bunch of new dishes, which will hopefully inspire a whole bunch of new recipe posts! I also bought some gifts at the Farmhouse, plus a rosemary scented candle for myself. I love the smell of rosemary!
Today has been a very easy day. I logged online this morning and checked out my Sephora Beauty Insider birthday message. In another week, I can go to Sephora and redeem a free birthday gift! I had a much-needed nail appointment this morning and followed that by picking up fro-yo afterwards. We’re having pizza at Mike’s parents’ house tonight and riding bikes there and back. As for the weekend, there’s nothing planned at the moment.
Have a good weekend!
