Friday Roundup: February 17
Well that was a week! I’m so excited it’s Friday and that I have another Friday Roundup for you guys! Not going to lie, I’m also excited to sleep in a little tomorrow. It was a busy week, Curtis is sick at home and I have sooooo much blog work to catch up on.
This week I attended a Starbucks tasting for their new Blonde Espresso. Pretty yummy, I’m not a big daily coffee drinker, but happy to try it out. It’s fruity and lighter, so I liked it. Would be amazing in an affrogato.
I also attended two events for the Vancouver Wine Festival. The opening night/preview at Joey’s on Burrard and the International Festival Tasting last night. Both were fun! If you are reading this during the day, you can still catch my InstaStories. The festival is featuring Canadian wines because it’s also Canada’s 150th birthday!
This weekend is going to be busy! First grabbing dinner with my friend Mich (Booty by Mich)! Yay to girl’s night 🙂 Then tomorrow is a shoot day for the blog. I have so many upcoming fun projects, I’m so excited to share with you guys! And a few giveaways!!! So subscribe to the email list and you’ll get the updates! Don’t want to miss out on a chance to win something, right?
I also want to catch a movie, we watched Arrival at home on Tuesday. Was pretty good but I guessed the outcome half way through. Sorry Curtis haha. Our house needs a good deep clean and I need to purge my closet badly. Also finalizing wedding details is in my weekend plans. Home stretch! My dress is about to arrive soon, so I have to find a seamstress for any alterations. EEEEK!
What are your plans? Anyone seen any of the Oscar nominees? Thoughts/Recommendations?
