Cafe Rio's new smoothie, Cafe Rio in general, and EMILY!!!

I am lucky enough to be in Utah for 3 weeks!  One of the benefits of Utah is Cafe Rio.  Cafe Rio is always awesome, never lets ya down!  It helps that 9 out of 10 Cafe Rio visits are with one of my BESTEST friends Emily!  Isn't she darling????   Anyway we happened to visit at the right time this last visit to Cafe Rio, they were handing out samples of their new smoothies WHICH HAPPEN TO BE HEAVENLY!   We were floored that they were so good.  We had the rasberry-mango.  Em was kind enough to buy me one!  A little piece of heaven and mind for $2.95.  Ahhhhhhhh.......



I love you cafe rio...and EM!  (disclaimer: not in that order...)

PS  My Chicken salad was a little piece of heaven too!

Zella and Nordstroms

I love great workout clothes.  One brand I really love is Zella.  It is found exclusively at Nordstrom's (too bad I don't have one here in Albuquerque!)  I recently was in Salt Lake City during a Nordstrom's Semi Annual Sale and picked up this jacket.


Sorry the pic is so small, go HERE and check it out for yourself!  I got it in the Lemon Candy color and have got tons of inquires as to where I got it!  Well I was browsing Nordies and saw that ALL of the colors are on SALE now!  The back of this jacket is awesome, it has a vented top and check out the ruched details at the collar and shoulder.

..............so I HAD to order the purple too, right?  and I LOVE it!

I pretty much love Nordstrom's more than any other department store.  Some say its waaaayyyy too expensive, not if you shop the Anniversary Sale....that starts in 3 days!



Check out the Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale catalog!

I love that its the NEW Fall styles are on SALE before the season and after the Anniversary sale they are marked back up to the full price!  That way you can shop sale for the season you actually need clothes for.  LOVE IT!

I love the 4th of July.

Today I love the celebration of the 4th.  We had a great time with a couple of new families over for a BBQ and we watched the fireworks from a park.  I was so surprised by the amount...and SIZE of the fireworks that the neighbors set off.  It was amazing!  We also get to go to a BBQ tomorrow with some friends from church, and we get Steven for the day (We love his Dermatology rotation!)



I am also very grateful to live in this country.  I know I have so many freedoms that many do not.  I truly admire and thank all of the service men and women who have kept this country safe and free.  THANK YOU!

I love a reason for a party so CHEERS to the 4th of July!
