Watermelon Feta Salad

Good morning everyone!

Hope everyone had a great weekend and hoping many of you have a short work week with July 4th coming up this Friday. ๐Ÿ™‚

Tommy and I ran 11 miles yesterday morning and we are both still a little sore and tired from that this morning. It was a little hard to wake up… I’m hoping a Zumba class I’m taking this evening will help stretch and sooth my muscles a little bit.

Yesterday I made a delicious salad, a Watermelon Feta Salad to be exact that I wanted to share with you. [Read more…]

Cafe Saint – Ex

Good morning!

I bet everyone is ready for the weekend, I know I am. I’m looking forward to running errands and doing things around the house tomorrow and then on Sunday I have an 11 mile run ahead of me, then I’ll be seeing a museum exhibit at the National Gallery of Art with my mom, and then meeting up with a sorority sister for a drink.

Well another month, another restaurant on 14th Street to try. ๐Ÿ™‚ [Read more…]

GBD – Golden Brown Delicious (Fried Chicken and Fresh Doughnuts)

Good morning!

Any soccer fans out there? It’s almost time to see if Team USA can advance to the second round in the World Cup. Fingers crossed. I know a lot of people who will be watching the game at bars across the country. My office will actually have the game turned on in several of our conference rooms, but sadly I’m not sure how much of the actual game I’ll get to see. It’s been a pretty busy week and today is no exception. ๐Ÿ™ I’ll be cheering from my seat! [Read more…]

Happy Hump day!

I think we all know by now that every Wednesday is probably going to be a good day (or at least morning) because of my early-morning barre class at Vida. Man, I love this class, and per the usual it kicked my butt today. I swear there was sweat running down my legs. Glorious. ๐Ÿ™‚ [Read more…]

Jazz in the Garden

Hello!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. One of my best friends from college was in town with her boyfriend so we had a very busy, but tons of fun weekend.

I knocked something off my “summer” list – go to a “Jazz in the Garden” on a Friday evening with friends! [Read more…]

Solomons Island

Good morning!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. For us DMV locals, the weather this weekend was absolutely perfect, which explains why I spent most of the weekend outside. ๐Ÿ™‚

On Saturday afternoon, Tommy and I explored Solomons Island, a small waterfront fishing village where the Patuxent River meets the Chesapeake River. ย It’s about 30 minutes or so south of Chesapeake Beach. Tommy and I thought the island (really more of a peninsula) was very charming. There were a lot of fun restaurants, bars, shops, and water activities available for locals and visitors. [Read more…]

31st Year

Happy birthday to me! ๐Ÿ™‚ I already feel so much birthday love and it’s 10am. Truly blessed to have amazing family, friends, and co-workers.

I decided today’s post would feature some pictures of my last year spent embarking into my 30s. It was a great year, with some trying and growing experiences to be sure (a few I have shared on Bee In DC and some I haven’t just because they are too raw). I have no doubt this year will be absolutely fabulous and challenging – which can be a good thing! [Read more…]
