Ketchup

No, no, catch up... Let's catch up. 


I'm continuing to enjoy my stationary subscription - especially this card by Snow & Graham. 


I had a great time a couple of Wednesdays back at Pref Night. It's certainly a tradition I plan to continue for years to come. I saw a pretty top I need to hop on the hunt for as this night is grand for style inspiration. Some of these sorority hopeful's outfits are showstoppers. 


I've enjoyed delicious meals with family - one of which was grilled by Hank's dad and another was a Sunday brunch with my dad and Hank at Another Broken Egg. This brunch spot is quite tasty and their philosophy is "nothing short of right is right." I'm ready to head back to try their bloody mary with homemade pepper vodka along with their beignets. 


The weather has been especially nice for hammocking, so that's where you'll find me and Bentley. I've said goodbye to weekends at the pool, and I've welcomed pumpkin spice latte season. I've enjoyed Hank's homemade guacamole and shopping for treasures with Cara


I had a lovely time hosting GetLit at my house with May. We hosted 17 ladies, and it was a blast. The book was The Fault in Our Stars. Some of our menu items included a mimosa bar, pimento cheese, mini peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and pizzas. We had a door prize where everyone shared their wish, and the favors were candy cigarettes - pulled from one of the main characters. The best takeaway from this book is live your best life today


On an all things good note, my mom surprised me with a Disney Princesses lunch box with matching sandwich and snack bags - such a cute treat. One of my favorite kitchen pieces lately is the above carafe - it's quite versatile. I recommend Trader Joe's Pita Chips w/ Sea Salt paired with their Cilantro and Chive Yogurt Dip as a tasty snack. I've been carrying the above tote bag from Madewell (it's only $5) to showcase my North Carolina pride. 


Hank and I rocked it one Saturday at Big Boss Brewery. We set up for an event, helped host almost 100 people and had fun all the while. Cara came to support too! I suggest Big Boss' brew Harvest Time - all in all a fantastic brewery with a very cool / down to earth owner. 


Bentley and I had a fun hike through Umstead State Park with my dad. It's my favorite time of year to take this Sunday morning hike as it's incredibly calming. Live your best life today!
