Relax darling

After an absolutely bananas few weeks, I'm hoping that October will feel a little bit more relaxed. I am forcing myself to take time for late afternoon naps, snuggled-up in the cold sunlight.

Life's too short to run around all day.

Meatball Tacos

Here is my recipe for meatball tacos:

Take leftover meatballs. Take leftover tacos. Put together. Call it fusion. Why not?

Here's an actual recipe, if you're fancy like that.

Dress like a Popcicle, feel like a million bucks

The sun came out yesterday just in time for the weekend, and Adam and I hopped on our bikes and went for a spin around the city (including the gorgeous Stanley Park seawall). Halfway round we stopped for cold beers and warm halibut tacos on a patio. It was probably one of the best days of my year so far.

I wore my cut off jean shorts and a tshirt, but at home I changed into a hot pink skirt and hot orange tank top, inspired by these dashing photos:

What a fantastic trend. I felt like a Popsicle and it was wonderful. Let me know if you try it too, eh?

Happy Monday folks! (And Happy Memorial Day American folks!)
