Friday Five: Some Summer Faves

Hello Friday!

Seriously these weeks are flying by – hard to believe we’re more than half way through July already!

I’m linking up again with Courtney, Mar and Cynthia (aka the DC Trifecta) for my Friday Five. This week’s theme is “Friday Favorites,” so I thought I’d share a few things I’m loving right now.

Pineapple Outshine Fruit Bars: I am seriously addicted to these things! They’re a mere 80 calories, ooze pineapple goodness and are the perfect refreshing treat on a summer afternoon.

 

Lazy Dinners on the Deck: Dinners on our deck are truly one of my favorite things about the summer. The meals are slow and easy, tunes are quietly playing in the background, and no one is in a rush to go anywhere.

House_of_Cards_title_cardHouse of Cards: OK I may be late to the party on this one, but we just re-joined Netflix this week and J and I are hooked on this show!

New Recipes: With the abundance of fresh produce at this time of year I’ve been playing with some new recipes. Currently I’m perfecting my peach salsa.

Family Running: This month I have been enjoying getting in some family runs. At my chiro’s urging I have been logging some miles at the track to keep my healing hip happy. It’s been a great spot to run with this little guy 🙂

  1. Mmm, those pops look so good! That peach salsa sounds great too. I’ve been buying nectarines this year instead of peaches — their quality seems to be more predictable.

  5. Oh wow! I need a 6 pack of those bars. Frozen juice or soup is about all I can tolerate lately. I will search some out tomorrow! and I’ve never seen HOC but I need something to keep me going until fall premiers. I’ll check them out.

  6. Ooooh the pineapple popsicles look delicious. I love HOC – you will finish them so quickly. I also binge watched Orange is the New Black. Yayy for NF.
