Tuesday’s Top Picks

  1. Birds of Paradis Carla High Neck Top
  2. Amo Ranger Pant also like the short. Elastic on the back waist for extra comfort.
  3. Roam Puffy Slide Black also like Cognac color way. Comfy slide.
  4. Anine Bing Rory Denim Jacket also like the Denim Work Jacket.
  5. Leatherology Accessories Pouch I got this as a travel make-up case but it’s almost too cute and I may use it as a clutch. Also love the Top Handle Train Case & Nested Travel Organizer.

Turtle Time

Happy Monday everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I entertained Saturday evening and I wanted to share the menu. I didn’t have a lot of time to prep so this menu was perfect and ready in about an hour and half.

  • Mini Cheese Boards for appetizers – Marcona almonds, two kinds of salami, cheese, crackers, olives, and persimmons.
  • Caprese Salad – Tomato, basil, mozzarella with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and Trader Joe’s Vegan pesto (adds extra flavor). You can make these ahead of time and store them in the fridge. Dress them right before serving and don’t forget to add salt & pepper.
  • Italian Chicken – I make this in the dutch oven (7 1/4 quart size), so delicious yet so simple to make.
  • Hasselback Potatoes – I used seasoned salt instead of Brabant Seasoning this time around. You can also add rosemary to go with the Italian Chicken.

Now onto today’s Turtle Time look.
