IT IS SUMMER IN THE MIDWEST!
It was in the 80s this weekend- and with the exception of a few rain showers- it was completely perfect.

Let's rewind a little. So I've started to get back into running...not that I was ever really talented at it. Evidently I'm 25 going on 80 because my knees are a load of crap if I run more than a mile or two. Michael finally convinced me to get some new shoes with more support & comfort- and Asics were the only option! My friend Dani recently got these- and after failing searching high and low for a cooler pair, I copied the gal and got them too. Kind of awesome, right??
It took me about 4 wearings to break them in, but now that they're good to go I am SO happy with the decision to invest in a quality pair of shoes. They not only help my feet, but me knees too! I highly, HIGHLY recommend them. And no, Asics isn't paying for this post ;)
I'm not the only one with cool neon shoes in this household- Michael's running and basketball shoes are SUPER bright too!
Speaking of bright, now that summer is here I've finally ditched the dark clothes and reached for the sunny hues. Oh, and I wear my J.Crew factory crystal necklace all. the. time. Not quite sure why I put off getting it for so long! Also- am I the only one who owns gingham shirts in about every color?
In case you've been hibernating the last week and missed this giveaway- WAKE UP! It ends in just a few days, so click here to enter to WIN!
The nice weather means it's yard game season! Thank goodness Dani & her husband have a sweet backyard that lends itself to games like Beersbie!
We got to spend time with friends from college this weekend, including brunch at a little townie restaurant right on a lake. Any weekend that includes dock time is good in my book.
I am JACKED about tomorrow's recipe post. Salted. Caramel. Sauce. Uses: limitless. Taste: Unreal! Be sure you come back tomorrow to check it out!

Asics are pretty much the only running shoes I'll buy–I get some free sneaks from work at times, but nothing works as good as Asics!
