Summer Loves

While there are hundreds of things to love about summer I always have a short list of my favorites. My list tends to change with the months, but this year it has been pretty solid.


Pinkberry!

The salted caramel topped with Heath bar is a must at the end of a HOT July day!

Fun in the water. Whether it be a week at the beach, a day on the lake or laying next to the pool for a few hours I love bronzing my skin and cooling off in the water.


When you spend too much time in the sun (even when wearing SPF 80+) you need to rehydrate your skin. Aquaphor is my newest obsession for skin hydration.





Sonic Happy Hour is near and dear to my heart. Now they have Coke Zero so my go-to drink is a large Coke Zero with extra vanilla. DELISH!


Last, but not least, summer TV is a great way to keep cool in the later afternoon. My very favorite summer show is Pretty Little Liars. Childish, perhaps, but do not put it down until you watch an episode. It is like a new age Nancy Drew, but better and way more suspenseful!

What are a few of your favorites this summer??

I love PLL. It's strangely addicting, though silly at times.

Greer's Gossip said...

Fro-yo and Sonic drinks are two of my summer must haves!!!

Sweet Tea said...

Our local ice cream shack called Clark's. The smallest serving is larger than a double dip at 31 Flavors...and only $3!!! The Milky Way ice cream is to die!

I have to laugh that you like PLL. I love that show, but I feel like a 16-year old (I'm 25)watching it, and my husband gives me the hardest time about it. I feel betting knowing that someone else over 20 likes it too.

My dermatologist told me about Aquaphor and I love it.

I'm with you on the Diet Coke with Vanilla. There's a freestyle Coke machine at my Wegmans and you can program it to get any drink you want. It's so delicious.

I am a Sonic-aholic for my Route 44 Diet Coke with extra ice. I don't even have to order. They see me in the drive-thru, and they just bring it out! Love my Sonic. It's the ice!

Vanilla Coke Zero is my go to at Sonic, but EXTRA vanilla..will have to give that a try!

Maryland Magnolia said...

A Pinkberry just opened in DC, and I'm super excited to try it :) So many bloggers have been raving about it this summer!

Jessica Nicole said...

Frozen yogurt and PLL are two of my favorite things about summer right now too! We don't have a pinkberry but we do have similar fro-yo spots! The pomegranate is delicious!

Princess Freckles said...

I'm ALL about Pretty Little Liars! Totally nancy Drew for 2011! It's my favorite hour of the week.

I've never had Pink Berry, but I'd love to try it! we don't have it in Michigan, but we do have some other good frozen yogurt shops, and it really is a super delicious treat for hot Summer afternoons.

Turtles and Pearls said...

I love Sonic Happy Hour! Diet Cherry Limeaid, please. Pretty Little Liars has been CRAZY this season!!

Rachel said...

I am in love with Pinkberry! I had it for the first time in New Orleans and wish there was one close to me in Blacksburg!

Terri Mayson said...

pinkberry salted caramel =dukan diet killer. I'm allowed a small for every 10 pounds

Pride and Pearls said...

Aquaphor also is great to use on your lips...by far the best healing ointment I have ever used. I used to take accutane and Aquaphor was the only thing that kept my lips hydrated...its a lifesaver

Tipsymadras said...

I have to agree with you about Pretty Little Liars! Spencer is my favorite with her killer riding boots and all that seersucker.
