Wednesday things
As a child, our mother would always read Blueberries For Sal to our brothers and I. We loved this book. We remember imagining myself being whisked away to Maine and picking fresh blueberries with Sal on Blueberry Hill. We were best friends back in the day.
For some reason our breakfast this morning reminded us of this book. Probably because there were in fact blueberries in our smoothie, but we think it had more to do with Mr. B. As we were stretching on the living room rug after our run, we could see Mr. B out of the corner of our eye eating his blueberry smoothie in front of the computer. Our mind instantly started to think back to the book. In case we hadn’t told you, some of Mr. B’s family is from Maine, specifically the town of South Brooksville where the story is set. Totally epic, right? We figured some day if/when we have kids, we want them to have that experience of picking fresh blueberries. We want them to stroll along beaches of Maine and visit Mr. Condon’s garage (it does exist!). Would that not be the coolest thing ever? Word. With work slowing down, we had some time today to look through our calendar and figure out what the heck is going on over the next couple of weeks. Things are going to be little jammed packed, but hopefully a lot of fun!
This weekend: – Denver Art Museum (Yves St. Laurent Exhibit) and dinner with the girls @ Linger – Chance’s birthday celebration at the Lehman’s June 27th to July 1st: Kansas City – Dinner with family – TBD Josie photo shoot – Wurth Women gathering at La Bodega – See our Mom’s new space at JuJu – Kaitlin’s wedding – Meet baby Hailey – Run withJamie July 3rd to July 11th: Steamboat with the Griswolds – Fly fishing, hiking, four wheeling, camping, etc. We stopped by Sunflower Market on our way from work this afternoon.
We are giving up Whole Foods for a bit (expect for their burrito bowls we grab on Tuesday nights because of kickball) to try and save some money. We should have listened to our friend Katie’s recommendation months ago because they have everything that Whole Foods does, but at half the cost. Needless to say, we are hooked! We brought home two HUGE bags of groceries for $23. Booyah!
Dinner tonight was an oldie, but a goodie. Fork and Knife Burgers!
These were pre-made jalapeno cheddar burgers that we picked up at Sunflower. They were savory, but we think what makes a burger a great burger are the toppings.
Hello, tomato, red onion, jack cheese, avocado, and spicy arugula.
On the side, baked sweet potato fries covered in paprika. Finger licking good, folks!
Have a smashing evening!
