Aren’t things with wheels fun? Here are a few things [some with wheels!] that I enjoyed this week…
This week
– Watched the Portland Twilight Criterium bike race around the North Park blocks on Friday. More cowbell!
– Let’s talk about my container garden. It’s amazing… and so tasty. I made a tomato salad this weekend which included: tomatoes, red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, pepper, and more tomatoes.
-We were going to go berry picking at Sauvie Island on Sunday, and ended up spending so long at the beach, that we missed the U-pick hours. So we ended up buying berries from the stand instead. Next time!
– I got a silly email from Gilt Groupe telling me “good news, your Hype Silk Naomi Strapless dress is now available”, meaning it had sold out ages ago, even though I really had no intentions of buying it. And I had a $20 off any order special coupon and so it ended up being $59 instead of ummmm… a $175 dress. Yay!
– Just started listening to Liam Finn’s new album FOMO. This video is ridiculous and kind of adorable. Those kiwis.
-Portland Soap Box Derby was also this weekend on Mt Tabor. We arrived kind of late, but it was still fun to sit on a blanket, and legally drink beer in the park. Also, there was a tank with some kind of potato gun cannon. Next year, I’m going to wear a derby hat.
What are you up to this week?
