What I'm Loving Right Now

1. Mad Men Season 4
We just finished it on Netflix and it just may have been my favorite season yet. The Suitcase was one seriously amazing episode. I'm heartbroken that I have to wait so long for Season 5!

Luckily I found the amazing website, Tom and Lorenzo, that recaps the style of every episode and character. This has kept me entertained for HOURS.


2. My Book Club
My friend Kim started a real-life book club and I love it! So far we'd read Mennonite in a Little Black Dress and Cutting for Stone. I'll post reviews of them another day.

2. Fage Greek Yogurt with Fruit
I've always loved non-fat Fage Greek Yogurt, but it was always a bit plain for my taste. Then I discovered the yogurt + fruit topping combo. LOVE it. And I found it a Costco too. Double score.


3. Playing with my New Camera
I got my Cannon Rebel last week! I've been trying out a lot of the functionality and taking a lot of pictures of Judah since he's generally the only willing subject around the condo.


4. Working out to the Song, "All of the Lights" by Kanye West
I seriously put this on repeat with a couple of other upbeat new songs for my gym workouts. I don't usually listen to much Top 40 music, but for working out a lot of the current music is perfect.

5. Gina's Skinnytaste
Shoutout to Dee for introducing this to me. Turns out everyone knew about this website except me. I made this Southwestern Black Bean Salad on Monday. Yum! Perfect for Summer!



6. Long days
I love that when I get off work it's still sunny and we can dine al fresco like we've done the past couple of evenings.

7. Pacifico Beer
Is there any better Summer beer?


8. Your sweet comment on my post Tuesday
Thanks for your kind words and supportive words.

Me & The Hubby are watching season 1 of Mad Men on DVD and we're loving it! We're hoping to catch up before Season 5, but one disc at a time from Netflix is kind of slow!! I'll have to check out that website when I get a chance!

Your new camera sounds wonderful! I got the Nikon d3100 in April and I'm loving learning how to use it! Good luck!!

I'm loving Gina's Skinnytaste too. I'll have to check out that Kayne song. Hubby and I are always looking for more workout music.

Good luck with the dSLR! I have all of my photography equipment listed here -http://www.thestrengthoffaith.com/p/photography-gear.html - with a couple of simple tutorials. I learned most of what I know from The Pioneer Woman's photography site.

Yes, there is a better summer beer then Pacifico :) It is called Bell's Oberon and it is brewed by Bell's Brewery in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It is only offered part of the year, usually around the middle of April - September. If you can EVER get it, try it! Yeungling is great, too!
