Happy Monday!
I wasn’t looking forward to today at all, to be honest. Dane and I had three full days off together this weekend and we took full advantage. There was a lot of sun, fun, food and The People vs. OJ Simpson.
I can honestly say that a television series hasn’t gripped me quite like The People vs. OJ in a really long time. I mean, I like certain shows I’ve watched but we legitimately binged for 7 straight hours one night and I couldn’t get enough. We woke up early the next day just to finish it! I should preface all of this by saying that I’m truly fascinated by crime and criminals, but I truly think that anyone who was ever captivated by the man in the White Bronco should give this series a whirl. I was honestly a little sad when it was over like…WOW! What will I watch now?!
We tested out drinks at one of Waikiki’s newest hotels, The Laylow, on Friday night. It was so cute and the drinks were really, really tasty. We enjoyed that their craft cocktails weren’t the usual mai tai fare and they switched things up a bit with off-the-wall ingredients. Our favorite was the Patron Coffee Martini with coconut foam.
For Easter we headed to our friend’s beach house and enjoyed a low key brunch with my bird’s nest cake for dessert. It was 100% inspired by Pinterest and I was really impressed with how it all came together. I only wish I would have had a fake bird to place on top to bring it all together. Oh well…next year 😉
And speaking of Pinterest…I’ve been on a total article reading bender on that site. Anyone else? I usually pin things and I’m like, oh I’ll get to that some day. But not recently! Recently, I find the pin, pin it, then read. I don’t know what has come over, but here’s the good stuff:
