TGIF! It has been a great week; jam packed with seeing friends, shopping, running errand and generally just getting stuff done. It feels so good to check things off the to-do list! I’m looking forward to some quality time with the hubby, Jellybean and pup this weekend. Hopefully the heat stays under control so we can spend sometime outside. Over the past couple of weeks the heat/humidity in DC has been very intense!
I went to Co Co Sala for the first time this week. While dinner was delicious the portion size was a little on the small size, for me. The dessert on the other hand was huge and totally decadent! I think it would make such a fun date night to go out for dinner and then go to Co Co Sala for dessert. YUM … I can still taste the chocolate.
Here’s what I’m loving this week …
I finally found the perfect t-shirt, thank you Madewell! I’ve been searching for them for a few months now for t-shirts I like. More than a few were return because they weren’t soft enough, too sheer or just not a good fit. A close second would be these from The Loft.
While shopping the Nordstrom’s anniversary sale for a second pair of the live in leggings the sale associate showed me a few cute tops to go with my new pants. She had some good picks, one of which is my new favorite workout tank top. And, seriously … why does the Nordstrom’s anniversary sale just suck me in and make me want to buy the whole store!
Gap was having an insane sale and I was able to buy Jellybean a bunch of bathing suites and clothing she can grow into. It’s always nice to have bigger sized clothes on hand for the day the current size no longer fits! =) I also noticed they have my favorite booties {similar, but just as cute} back in stock! I got SO many compliments on these booties when Jellybean wore them last winter.
I’m always on the hunt for a new chapstick. I like this one, however this lip conditioner is far more affordable and I actually like it better. I feel like the fresh sugar has to be reapplied more often than the Caudalie.
Last, but not least … I made this super delicious balsamic glazed chicken. I use chicken thighs instead of breasts since we were out of chicken breasts. I also didn’t use a slow cooker. Just threw it into the dutch oven and let it cook (stirring occasionally) for about an hour and a half. Winning … another recipe to add to the rotation!!
I hope you have a great weekend! What are you favorite items lately?
