Happy Friday! I hope you have a super weekend. I’m getting a much needed massage here. So fancy! It was a gift from my mother-in-law and I am very excited. Alex actually has to work on Saturday, so Owen and I are on our own. I think we’re going to hit the farmers’ market and then test out a recipe for vanilla oatmeal cookie smoothies–stay tuned for the recipe.
Here are my top picks from the Internet this week:
The roll of black dolls in American culture. Beautifully written and fascinating.
The Hillary store is open for business. I like this and this and also this.
Here are some pictures of Chris Christie playing softball. You’re welcome.
Let’s take a minute to nerd out about wine.
Drumroll, please… the Lower Hudson Valley’s hippest town is…
Such a pretty beach cover-up.
Have you heard about the “wife bonus”? My friend Sarah emailed me these three articles last week, but there are more, if you Google (which I did). Insane!
Gluten-free deep dish chocolate chip cookie cake with rainbow sprinkles. Enough said.
On to this week’s drink recipe. Somehow I forgot to tell you that I bought a juicer a few months ago. Like everyone who buys a juicer, I had really good intentions. But, like everyone who buys a juicer, after the first couple of weeks I lost a lot of steam. It was just such a pain to clean. Now I’m ready to get back on track.
What I like best about this blueberry cabbage juice is that it strikes the perfect balance between fruity and vegetal–and it looks so pretty in the glass. I had it for breakfast paired with a giant mug of coffee with coconut milk, and I was a very happy camper.
PS: Orange-aide and Beet, Banana, and Oat Smoothie.
