Happy Monday!!!
We had a very low key weekend which was just what I was hoping for!
But unfortunately that means nothing exciting to report 🙂
except that I got to have a full Sunday Funday with my nephew yesterday, taking him to The Varsity before a puppet show, and then a family BBQ to end the night.
It couldn’t have had a better day.
The boys made baby back ribs on the big green egg and I made asparagus bundles and Ina’s Coleslaw.
My friend made asparagus in Chicago where she coated it with a little cream cheese and then wrapped it in prosciutto and it was so delicious. Since I only had thin asparagus, we did bundles (and Kip may or may not have had a heavy hand with the cream cheese) and they were so yummy.
Bake at 425 for about 15 minutes or until asparagus is cooked through.
For Ina’s Coleslaw, I use the pre-shredded packages of Coleslaw Mix from Public and then follow her recipe for the dressing. Super quick and easy to make – only about 10 minutes and then throw it in the fridge for later that night.
my outfit this weekend has been on heavy rotation for running errands
Some links below with some more exciting events 🙂
{ one } Jill Zarin is still talking Bravo and Housewives and trying to stay relevant.
{ two } There’s a bunch of drama over Beiber and him dating Nicole Richie’s sister and his fans being mean…. I mean, it’s Beiber, who cares, but just to keep you well informed #RIPBeliebers is trending.
The real reason everyone is drinking LaCroix
spoiler alert : instagram
{ four } Poor Jules (NY Housewife). Things with her divorce seem to be getting even worse. #TeamJules
Leslie Jones coverage of the Olympics in Rio is amazing.
Also, TV is back this week! Thank goodness! The struggle + withdrawal symptoms without Bravo are real.
I know there is still another whole week of Olympic coverage but pretty much everything I like to see is done.
Bachelor in Paradise + RHoOC are back tonight, along with all the other trash we know and love!
Preach!
ps Big Brother lovers : I hope you can’t stand Paulie as much as we can’t in this household. He is horrible and so mean, especially what he did to Natalie. I was so mad he didn’t get sent packing in double eviction! How Corey won HOH is beyond me! For someone I really liked all season, the last two weeks he has gotten worse and worse and MAN he is not a sweetheart like his brother. Fingers crossed he doesn’t win POV and goes. Him crying last night may have made me laugh…. but that would be mean…. but its true I laughed he deserves it. I always forget to discuss BB in coffee talk so I thought I might as well include my deep, intellectual thoughts regarding it now.
