Tommy and I were fortunate enough to sneak away for a short, but amazing stay at the Mandarin Oriental hotel last weekend for a Babymoon before little Luke arrives.

Tuesday Tidbits – 251

Happy Tuesday ya’ll!

  1. Kind of sad, not gonna lie. I remember when there were a ton of cheap HHs (happy hours) in the city.
  2. I had a work retreat at Kent Manor Inn on the Eastern Shore last week. 
  3. Listen to your Graduation Playlist. (The biggest hits from the year you graduated).
  4. I’m starting to think of things to pack in my Hospital Go Bag for Luke. Any suggestions?
  5. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to the general public this Friday – this is one of the items I’m eyeing.

Hope you have a great day!
