Summer days are best spent...

definitely with friends! 

It was so good to see my best friend today and be able to hang out with her. My summer has been pretty uneventful, as I am working constantly and my boyfriend currently lives in another country, so needless to say, I was beyond happy to have company today. I took her all around my town and we spent time running random errands, looking at beautiful houses, reading through random books at barnes and noble (one of our favorite places), eating food, getting starbucks, and taking dorky pics. It wasn't any crazy excursion, but it was so much fun. Sometimes the simplest things are the best.





also, with good food!

Just a few weeks ago, my hometown opened up a sustainable sandwich shop called Homegrown. The restaurant is based only throughout the Seattle area and the ingredients are all local and organic. Plus, the restaurant has partnered up with Tom Douglas, who owns one of my favorite Seattle restaurants (Serious Pie). I am super excited that this restaurant is so close. It is tiny and kind of pricey, but totally worth it. Plus, the logo is awesome and I definitely want a tee shirt or water bottle with it.

I got the chicken pesto sandwich, which was delicious. But I am dying to try the ham and beechers, and I will definitely have to soon. 



and lastly, with a little shopping.

My parents are building a new house and are constantly looking for new stuff to add. One of my mom and my favorite places to go is Glassy Baby and there is one only about 20 minutes away from me. The votives are always gorgeous and I love that they create new colors for each seasons. I have the princess color, which is a classic light pink that I love.


My weeks have been kind of boring lately with a whole lot of retail work, but this one was particularly fun. :)
