Friday Roundup: July 21
Happy Friday! Another weekend is upon us and mine is jammed packed! Before we dive into my plans and today’s Friday Roundup links, an we just talk about how it’s already almost August!? WTF…
I had a good week. Last weekend we took a day trip to the states to run errands and go for a drive. We borrowed my nana’s bright yellow Fiat 500. Went to Blaine, Old Bellingham (brewery central, who knew?) Chuckanut Highway and had lunch in Edison. Oh and a quick stop at Trader Joe’s of course.
Sunday was a relaxing day spent on our bikes and then my sister’s pool. We were cat sitting so I took advantage of that haha.
Curtis and I had sushi at the beach and Curtis took a dip in the ocean. We also just binged watched The Defiant Ones on HBO (so good!) and celebrated my mom’s birthday last night. We all enjoyed tacos and queso fundido at La Mezcaleria in Gastown.
Tonight, I am staying at home, giving myself a manicure and catching up with photo editing. Tomorrow is the Deighton Cup and I am excited to go! I have a fascinator that I just bought, wearing a fun dress from my closet and going to bet on a race or two. Hope I win!
How’s your weekend? Any exciting plans? Anyone else here going to the Deighton Cup?
