What’s Up Wednesday: May 2018

May 30, 2018 by Rechelle 12 Comments

And just like that May is over…Linking up with Sheaffer & Shay to share what we’ve been up to this month!

What we’re eating this week…

Coming off a holiday weekend away we’re keeping things simple for dinner this week! We’ve got grilled pizza, brats, veggie filled pasta, and Friday is our city’s monthly Food Truck gathering!

What I’m reminiscing about…

These bonfires from last year Memorial day weekend, food & s’mores over the fire are just SO good!

What I’m loving…

I am loving this new tea I decided to try out from Trader Joe’s! It smells very strongly of watermelon but tastes more minty for sure, delicious either way.

What we’ve beenΒ upΒ to…

Last weekend we attended the Indy 500 and had a blast!!! Hank & Hal stayed with my parents and I think they had a good time too πŸ˜‰

What I’m dreading…

Not a darn thing πŸ˜‰

What I’m working on…

I’m working on getting everything planted in my garden! Plus we need to get a fence around it too.

What I’m excited about…

I’m excited for my in-laws to arrive this weekend!

What I’m watching/reading…

You can catch what I’ve been reading here. I actually just about finished this one over the weekend!

What I’m listening to…

I’ve listened to a lot of audiobooks recently but took a short break for a few days while I waited for my next one to become availble from the library.

What I’m wearing…

SANDALS! Every single day, finally!

What I’m doing this weekend…

This weekend my husband’s parents will be arriving from Arizona to visit and I think my parents will be coming over too to help me with my garden!

What I’m looking forward to next month…

The OFFICIAL start of summer πŸ˜‰

What else is new…

I changed out Hank & Hal’s bowties with new ones to be more festive for Memorial Day & 4th of July <3

BONUS QUESTION: What is your favorite summer salad?

I made this one several times last year and it is just TOO GOOD! Hoping I’ll be able to use tomatoes & basil from my own garden this year, YUM!
