...until Saturday.
UM, I have been missing out!
I think it always weirded me out since it's green, but I finally caved and
tried some and oh. my. gosh. NEW FAVORITE! So delicious. Move over
chocolate chip cookie dough ;)
chocolate chip cookie dough ;)
Adam & I went to the beach on Saturday night to watch the sunset :)
He asked if I wanted to stop and get some ice cream, and although I'm
a health nut, I cannot say no to ice cream. It's my weakness!
We had a lot of fun...but then again, when don't we?!
As usual, Adam took all of these lovely pictures :)
I sure do love that guy!
And in case you were wondering about my outfit...
Dress: Cotton On
Sandals: DSW
Cross body bag/Belt/Necklace/Sunglasses: Target
.
If you're new here (welcome!) and don't know what my Smell the Roses
tasks are all about, you can find out everything you need to know here!
The reason I shared these pictures today is because last week's task was a bit hard to take pictures of. The task was to clean out your closet and donate what you don't use anymore. Well I did and dang...I got rid of two trash bags FULL of stuff! But I didn't really find posting pictures of my piles of clothes/shoes/bags to be of great interest so you got beach pictures instead :) I do have one picture to share from cleaning out my closet/drawers...
She always, always, always has to be in the middle of everything and I'm telling you,
she doesn't miss a beat! Anyway, like I said, I got rid of 2 trash bags full of stuff.
I brought them to my Mom's house yesterday, because Red Cross stops there once a month for donations :) It blows my mind to know that I can get rid of 2 full bags of stuff and not even blink an eye. I am blessed beyond words, and I don't take that for granted. I really hope that the stuff I donated makes its way to someone who isn't as fortunate as I am. Did you do a little bit of spring cleaning and donate anything? I'd love to read about it, so grab a button & link up!

I am not a fan of mint ice cream, but I'm glad you like it! Your cat is precious and you and Adam look so good together! Great pictures!

So cute!! We both had a good beach weekend! You and your bf are so cute :)
ReplyDeleteAnd Im super jealous that you get to enjoy the beach ALL the time!
I am not a HUGE mint fan, but I will say mint chocolate chip is delicious!! My fave is cookie dough (yumm) and my beloved pistachio ice cream!! So good. Try it sometime, you won't regret it!! ;)
ReplyDeleteThe beach pics make me so jealous!! I wish I could take date days/nights with Matt to the beach. You are stinkin' precious, too! Always.
Love you!!
i've never had mint choc chip ice cream either! & i have no idea why bc i love mint/choc combo!
ReplyDelete& i actually just had cookies & cream for the first time this year!
i'm going to try mint choc chip ASAP! :)
You are the cutest thang of all mankind! Love your dress... super cute and summery!! And I'm so jay you guys (1) have ice cream and (2) are at the beach! I miss the beach soooo much :/ In due time I shall be reunited with my Cali roots once again!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday! And I'm soooo gonna shoot for your Smell the Roses task this week for a link up :)
WHAT!!! All I can focus on is that you'd never had mint choco chip until this weekend. You HAVE been missing out. It's definitely my favorite. You really can't go wrong with it. Ummm…I need to read the rest of your post bc I just scrolled down after I saw the first sentence to yell at you. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm totally loving this week's task, not what to surprise M with is the question. I didn't do last week's task of donating more clothes, but I'm going to need to get on that soon. M was opening all our drawers being silly and was like "wow you have a lot of clothes." I claim to wear them all, but I don't think I do...
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable. I'm so glad you tried and loved Mint chocolate chip ice cream! Now I want some!
ReplyDeleteYou are adorable. I'm so glad you tried and loved Mint chocolate chip ice cream! Now I want some!
ReplyDeleteA few things:
ReplyDelete1) I LOVE mint chocolate chip ice cream! You have definitely been missing out :)
2) You are too cute for words. I love all your outfits and accessories!
3) Boots is adorable! I am a cat lover and my cat always has to be in the middle of everything too :)
4) Is that Coach Poppy perfume? If so, I'm jealous :)
Have a great week girl!!

i want some ice cream now! mmm!
ReplyDeleteI have never had Mint Chocolate Chip Ice cream before, but your post makes it sound very tasty. I like how organized your blog is.
ReplyDeleteDang girl you are getting so tan!
ReplyDeleteyou are so cute! i want to be on the beach right now! : )
ReplyDeleteI also can't believe you've never had mint chocolate chip ice cream! It's my favorite and has been since I was really little. Actually, I love pretty much anything mint so the ice cream is must-have for me, LOL. Your outing to the beach looked really fun - and have to admit, I'm pretty jealous! We live by a really big lake but there's no real beach anywhere near here (hundreds of miles away). Guess I'll have to deal with fresh water... :(
ReplyDeleteI've already told you that I love mint anything, but did I also tell you that I love that dress and you?
ReplyDeleteBecause I do.
Mint Chocolate Chip is my all time favorite ice cream. So glad that you finally tried it!
ReplyDeleteOMG hon! You've never had mint choco chip?! I'm so excited that you've become a fan! I gotta say, that Baskin Robbin's has the best "green" ice cream I've ever tasted (okay, as a kid, the only kind of ice cream I would eat was the green kind, be it pistachio or mint, it didn't matter, just as long as it was green!)
