Friday Roundup: September 2

Last long weekend of the summer! Wow where did it go?! I can’t believe I’m already writing up a Friday Roundup post in September.

This weekend I don’t really have too many plans, just hanging around the house, getting a ton of recipes shot and edited, working on guides, my first YouTube video! and catching up with other posts. I need to get ahead of the fall and holiday posts. I also just want to chill and watch Netflix and hide from the rainy weather in Vancouver. Literally sit in my PJs for most of a day.

What is everyone else doing this weekend? Any last minute trips for the long weekend? What was your highlight this summer? Mine was definitely our Palm Springs/San Diego trip and really enjoying the summer in Vancouver. I was able to go to many events this summer for the blog, Ford Canada, Greygoose, Tacofino Yaletown, Robson Street Fall Fashion Preview, NYX Cosmetics and a few other food events.

I feel fortunate and love meeting new people in this city. My fall schedule is already shaping up and I’m pretty excited about a couple of projects coming up! Stay tuned and subscribe to my email list to keep up to date. I will be starting new newsletters and adding in some extras in them in the next month. So you want to be on the list!
