Angel Shower

Today was BSue's Wedding Shower and it was beautiful. I'm pretty jealous because the perfect couple now owns half of Crate & Barrel. Aside from the Happily Ever After part, I can't wait for the day I can register for all sorts of fabulous gifts. Much love to the lovebirds.

Hello Angels xoxo

In The Words Of Kenny Rogers

"You got to know when to hold em', know when to fold em', know when to walk away."

Sometimes it's through an omen, or sometimes you just have a gut feeling, or sometimes, like in this case, the information hits you like a ton of bricks.

Either way, it hurts like hell. But I believe in karma.

Paradise

Bermuda.was.amazing - the weather, the beaches, the food, the people. The ocean was so blue that I even went in for a swim. For those of you that know me well, I know you are proud.

Unfortunately, I am slowly getting over a stomach bug, so I'm having an even harder time getting back into the swing of things at home. A week ago today I was loungin' at St. Catherine's Beach (below), so really, can you blame me?

Packing Is My Worst Nightmare

I will be in Bermuda next week! I will be cruising out of Boston with my immediate family, my grandparents and my uncle and heading for the tropics. The 7 of us traveled together last June to Ireland and it was absolutely amazing - however, that trip was about visiting the "homeland" and this trip is strictly R&R.

A few things I'm looking forward to: eating dessert at every meal, sun, sand, piña coladas and the towels they contort to look like animals.

I have been trying to pack all week. I have gotten as far as throwing my summer clothes on my bedroom floor. They are not going to pack themselves, so I've dedicated tonight to organizing what I really need. For the normal person, this would not take the whole evening, but I'm an "over-packer" and I almost always forget a necessity - think toothbrush or contact lens case.

Wish me luck and think of me next week enjoying a piña colada with a pink umbrella.

A Delectable Drink

Generally, I am not a fan of Chinese food, but I can't stop raving about PF Chang's. The restaurant recently opened at the Natick Collection, otherwise known as the "Rolls-Royce of shopping malls," and my boyfriend and I decided to try it out.

As much as the food (specifically Chang's chicken lettuce wraps) and the atmosphere are great, that is not the best part. They serve the BEST martini I've ever had - Chang's Key Lime Pie Martini. Here is a brief description from the website: Vanilla liqueur and key lime juice shaken with cream and served with a graham cracker rim

Looking over the drink menu, I wasn't sure what to order - everything sounded delicious. But the graham cracker rim sealed the deal. The key lime makes it a perfect drink for Summer and it is so delicious it can even be ordered for dessert.

I will definitely be taking full advantage of my new hot-spot after a long day of shopping at the "Collection."

Well Worth the Wait

I saw the Sex and the City movie this weekend and I loved it. Loved Big, loved the girls, loved the clothes. After all the hype, I wasn't let down.

Can you imagine actually living that lifestyle?

And it's safe to say, any woman who saw the movie has a new-found appreciation for Beethoven.
