I haven’t done a proper TILT post in a while, so I guess it’s time to round up a few of the things I’ve been loving lately.
I’m loving…
… my new online friends that I’ve found through VEDA. You’re all awesome.
… Caprese Salad (with fresh basil from my garden). I make it with balsamic vinegar (I don’t know if that’s the ‘proper’ way to do it) and I love it. I might be a little obsessed right now. (Here’s proof that I could never ever give up cheese, even if I wanted to.)
… sand between my toes. I am not really a beach person (as in, I am not someone who enjoys beach vacations and lying on the beach all day), but I love a nice beach walk and waiting for the sunset. Always make me marvel at the beauty of this world.
… “The Newsroom”. It’s such an awesome show. The dialogs are witty and clever and I am totally in love with the theme music. The composer is a genius. If you haven’t checked out this new HBO series, do it. NOW.
… the feeling of getting stuff done. I enjoy writing to-do lists every week and then crossing things of said list. It’s such a rewarding feeling and I already got so much accomplished this week.
… when good things happen to good people. I can’t help but smile when I hear about good news from friends near and far. It makes my heart happy. More of that.
… weekend getaways. There is nothing better than getting away for a couple of days. I am looking forward to a tentatively planned weekend-trip in San Francisco in September! It’s always a trip worth taking!
… my new maxi skirt that I bought a couple of weeks ago. It’s so soft and comfortable. It’s my first maxi skirt ever and I love it!
… the slightly ‘cooler’ temperatures. Who am I kidding, the temps are still in the 90’s here in the Central Valley, but it’s a significant cool off from the 100+F that we had to deal with in the last few weeks.
… that Christmas is only 4 months away. Wait. What?
What are you loving right now?

I like getting things crossed off my to do list too. Good job, girl.
I’m enjoying the cooler temps in Pittsburgh, but I worry about snow. I hate driving in it.

August 24, 2012 at 6:00 amCrazy that Christmas is that soon – this year has gone by SO quickly. I can’t believe we’re already at the end of August.
Also, I firmly believe caprese salad is best with balsamic – so good!

August 27, 2012 at 8:00 amI LOVE caprese salad! I think it’s one of my favorites. I must have eating a dozen of them in Italy! Balsamic vinegar is one of the only things I can’t even SMELL let alone eat, so I prefer mine just with some oregano or salt & pepper, topped with olive oil :)
