Weekend To-Do

Starting a new Friday tradition…yay!  I find that I always have a LONG list of “to-do” items nearly every weekend so I decided to start assigning projects to my readers as well, just kidding.  Sort of, but not really.  Take these six ideas (3 per day) as nice “suggestions” that would really just ADD to your weekend experience.  With out any further ado…

Poach some salmon

Salmon is healthy, delicious and EASY.  It also tastes awesome on the BBQ, just saying.

I’m way into this.  I’ve been using the “Tweedy” color (black) and getting oh so many compliments on it.

For all you straight-haired girls…you too can get beach waves, perfect for summer.

Try an at-home pedicure

I tend to avoid the nail salon for one reason or another…so why not try a pedi DIY?

There’s something very super hero-like about wearing a jumpsuit…something that I feel like I need in my life.
