Steak Night!

So I have a new grocery shopping habit. I have signed myself up for the Fairway email. Initially my reason was so that I was entered into a $1,000.00 Fairway gift card giveaway. But since I didn't win that, or powerball (what the what!) I thought that maybe I would unsubscribe. Until I noticed that this weekly email sends me what is on sale for the week. Two words: Game Changer. I know go in with not only a weekly plan but also know that I am getting the most bang for my buck. You can check out the sales here for your own local store.

This week the bang came in the shape of a sirloin steak. And at 5.99 lb, we totally pulled a JD and Turk.

One last Paris note

Ok, so I know that I have only done a mixed job on my Paris recap. Since we have been back, my computer won't seem to hold a charge so getting the right time to blog has been tricky. But I made a commitment and I will follow though. So that said, I do have one last (probably not) Paris tip. I am sure that many of you are familiar with Design Sponge, the mother ship of design blogs. Well they also happen to do a really great recap of things to do in cities around the world.  I went there to read up on Paris which led me to Anne, blogger in her own rite at Pret a Voyager and wait for it....tour guide in Paris, which I booked right on the spot. Once I booked the tour, Anne sent us a questionnaire of things that we would be interested and from there tailored the tour to our wants and needs. We met up with her on Monday and had an awesome time. She gave us a lay of the land, explained the street signs, subways and gave us an inside scoop on the best of the hood. I am still dreaming of these pistachio chocolate pastry wheels that she introduced us to. I felt after a day spent with her that I had a much better sense of the city layout and what was worth checking out. If you are ever in Paris and need some help, I highly rec
ommend reaching out to her. Merci Anne! 

TGI-This weather on the weekend!

Weekend Calendar Seen on Saturday.com

Happy Friday!! This weekend, I am going to try to snuggle with my new nephew Henry as much as possible, while still having fun with my other nephew Jake. They are just too cute. Also, I am looking forward to a normal week ahead, going grocery shopping on Sunday and meal planning (which I will share on here) and just being around.

What about you? Any good plans for the weekend. I know that I owe you all some more Paris thoughts and idea and maybe even sharing the story of my evening/morning with Jake while my sister gave birth. 

When it rains, it pours! (But in a good way)

Last night I got a really cute text message from my friend Margaret. She said "Between Paris and nephew number two, I would say its a damn good month!" Good Lord, thank you Margaret! I am the type of person that cannot always see the positive and when you pointed it out like that, it was as Oprah would say, my A-ha Moment. This May has been one for the books. New job, Paris, Birthday and the best brand new nephew I could ask for. And the best part is.....it's only halfway through!

How is your month going? Do you have a favorite month?
