Road trip
Heading off on a little road trip without the hubs. The pups and xm radio will keep me company. Cooler temps makes me want to transition my clothes for fall. I will hold off since we head to the beach in a little over a week.

Consignment Convert
One of my friends introduced me to consignment shopping. I have tried shopping at thrift stores and I could not get past the disarray and overloaded racks. I'm lucky to have some very high end consignment boutiques near me. I scored some major deals during a summer sale on Friday. I'm going to share my biggest one.
NWT originally $290 halter top among the sales rack. It will be perfect for dinner at the beach next month. I also scored a lace cami to wear under a suit and a turquoise J. Crew dress. Here is my receipt
Even the owner couldn't believe the steal I was getting. I think I even impressed the hubs with my savvy shopping. I think I will become a regular so I can make sure to get more steals.

Basil abounds
One of the only things that is growing well in my garden is basil. I decided to make some fresh mozzarella so the hubs could enjoy insalata Caprese. I also made a batch of very delicious strawberry basil scones.
I picked up some salted caramel vodka when we went to the ABC store. I mixed it with apple juice we had to have for the ribs the hubs was smoking. I must admit that I was overwhelmed by all the flavors of spirits out there. Everything from sweet (Cotton Candy) to savory (Cilantro).
I was hoping to spend the weekend playing on the lake. It seems that it will be more like fall than summer. I hope y'all have a great weekend.

Jack's VIP Pass
I guess I have not been feeling the love for Banana lately and I received a $30 gift card in the mail a few weeks ago. I went online today and bought the above items on sale and used ebates to get an additional 2% back. Yay me! Nothing like a little free money to inspire some shopping.
