Summer Bucket List: Go to a music festival

I've not been wanting to blog and it isn't because I don't have anything to blog about. I do, but I just don't feel like doing it. I don't know. Hopefully that changes soon but I figured that I get this post up since summer is coming to a close.

OK, let's talk about a good weekend! Sunny days, warm evenings & time spent with great friends does amazing things for the soul.

Several Saturdays ago, Cinthia and I went to a girlfriend's (Krista's) house for some pool fun. There were snacks, drinks and great conversations. If someone told me before we moved to Pennsylvania that I would be loving living in Pennsylvania so much I would not have believed them. But somewhere along the line Pennsylvania has become so much like home to me and I can't picture myself anywhere else right now. And, well, I forgot to take pictures. What?! Me?! #bloggerfail

After the pool, we headed home to get ready for Musikfest. I look forward to Musikfest every year and to be honest it is because of my absolute favorite corn in the world! I get the happiest and giddiest feeling when I know that I am just a few minutes away from indulging in this corn. If there was a way that I could share with all of you that way you could also know of the goodness, I would! This festival I took three to go right before we left for the night and I think I'll do that every year now. #inserttongueemojihere.

We enjoyed a fun evening of listening to musicians, stuffing our faces (fried dough not pictured) and just enjoyed a nice summer night. Ya know what? I'm really going to miss summer.

New Orleans: Evening jazz cruise

Image
On our third evening in NOLA, we went on Steamboat Natchez for their evening jazz cruise. It is a two hour cruise ride along the Mississippi River and it was just so beautiful. We had dinner on the boat and although the food was nothing to write home about the overall experience was such a great one. The music, the views, the people... it was truly just a lovely experience. We experienced the loveliest sunset and just being able to see it and be in that moment was just one of the reasons why it really is so grand to be alive. Too many pictures were taken, even Sean wanted to take pictures and well, I don�t think you can blame us too much. Many of my pictures turned out like the one below because of the humidity. My lens would fog up immediately. It truly was such a great evening and one that I will not soon forget.

Good food & good music

Image
I don�t think there are many more things that are better than good food & good music. I truly believe that food & music can often play a role in putting someone in a great mood or a foul mood. For instance, I know that when I hear a song that I use to listen to when I was a kid, it just brings me back to that exact moment and often times I can�t help but get the silliest grin on my face. Anyway, this brunch date with Cinthia on an extremely cold, spring day (not bitter) did just that. It transported me back to New Orleans where I was stuffing my piehole with delicious foods while listening to live jazz music. And what a great time we had! Live jazz, bottomless mimosas, the cheesiest mac and cheese, lightly toasted cornbread, fried green tomatoes, NOLA shrimp and warm beignets. We felt like we ordered it all but truthfully, we hardly touched the surface of the menu. This wasn�t our first time at The Bayou but it was just as enjoyable as the first time. I feel like we w...

Spring made an appearance!

Image
Guys, we finally got spring like weather (80s!!!) and we made sure to take advantage of it. Good thing too because we are back in the 40s & 50s this week. Not nice spring, not nice. We first enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the deck and then went to the gym for a workout. We had big plans to work on our front and back yards after the gym as Mr. Sean did not rake up the leaves last fall. Since it was going to be such a nice day, I decided that I'd help him, ha. I know how that sounds but I love informing everyone that I�m responsible for the inside cleaning & he�s responsible for the outside cleaning, also known as, raking, mowing, shoveling, etc. Anyway, regardless of how much work it was, it was actually very enjoyable & I believe our workouts earlier in the day helped to give us the energy we needed to work several hours in the front and back yards. But let's be honest, with the weather being so nice it made me want to be outside all day. The dogs were lovin...
