Monday! You came too quickly!
In case you all didn't get it from me cutting off from blogging midweek..or from all the instagram posts- I took off for a quick vacation for a few days with Michael & friends. It was much needed- and it's going to be seriously hard to snap back into reality this week!
Here's what's up lately:
Can you tell I work at an apparel brand with some nautical heritage behind it when it's totally normal to dress like this for work? This outfit makes me feel like I should be hangin' out on a yacht in New England:
I recently got some goodies from Elizabeth @ Spike the Punch and Sugarfina- so I clearly had to fill my compulsive need to put 'em in rainbow order :)
VACATION!
M & I roadtripped with friends down to Nashville- and made a couple great stops on the way. Our first night was spent in Indy- with pull tabs & pizza at a VERY smoky bar. Boo to cigs still being allowed in bars in other states! We had a fabulous time laughing at the ridiculous band & getting some quality people watching in.
Day & night #2 was spent in Kentucky- in the bourbon capitol of the world. We toured Maker's Mark, explored downtown Bardstown, and ended up at a really cool hidden bar with great live music. The whole town smells like sour mash because of the distilleries surrounding it. So crazy!
The next day we headed to Nashville & did all things honky-tonk. We line danced, rode mechanical bulls, visited the Grand Ole Opry, sang along with country bands, and drank our fair share :)
Our final day & night we explored Vanderbilt, scouted food trucks and thrift stores, enjoyed whiskey flights and bbq, and headed to East Nashville for a full-hipster experience at night.
I already miss the 80 degree, sunny weather. Le sigh.
If you're headed to Nashville anytime soon, I absolutely have some recommendations!
Now, back to reality---
Tomorrow I'll be sharing a seriously delicious recipe that any coconut lover will appreciate (and is kosher for Passover, if you're celebrating!)
Whew! So what did I miss while I was gone everyone?
Anyone going to Nashville soon? Please take me with you!

I was in Nashville for a wedding in Sept and I am so disappointed I didn't get out to explore the city more (I was too hungover from the rehearsal dinner after party -- oopsy poopsy). Luckily, I do have some family who live there so hopefully trips are in my future! I love how you arranged those sweets though. Makes me smile and dream of more colorful days:)

Stopping by via MMG...I have to say I love your whole outfit. Totally makes me want to steal this and wear it soon as well. :) I may or may not have very similar items in my closet.
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday.
I loved looking through your guys' pictures from your vacation - it looks like you had a great time :)
ReplyDeletealso those coconut things....I think I need to move back to Madison so I can make you make me them ALL THE TIME.
