Happy Phall.

I'm a loyalist. I have a tendency to find an outfit, and then wear it to death. This applied to my summer uniform that always involved my mom's cropped pink-and-white-striped tank.

My mom is so sick of me wearing her hand-me-downs that she even offers to buy me new clothes (works every time)! Yes, and those jeans dating back to 1986 are a hand-me-down from my dad (sorry for the dirt on the lens; I was at the beach for goodness sake!). It's been fun, summer!

Now I'm just really looking forward to fall in Philadelphia (phall?). This past summer I was running around a bit: LBI, New York, Richmond, OBX, NJ, Toronto, etc. I was an abusive resident, constantly neglecting my beloved city. With this weekend being my second consecutive weekend here in a long time, this fall I fully intend to make it up to this city of brotherly love...

Tonight I'm heading to the Colonial Theater in Pheonixville to see Andrew Belew as a birthday present for my blue-eyed and bearded boy. Tomorrow I will dance my face off at Popped Music Fest with Leah! 

Have the lovliest weekend!

ps, Pic on Kelly Drive with geese was taken last year by my sister, the cutest mommy blogger around, when she and her family visited me in Philadelphia last labor day.

Until next time.

I have to be honest. I usually HATE summer. I'm more of a fall type of girl; the girl who'll start weeping while driving to work just because beautiful foliage lines the main highway of her morning commute. But something was different this summer. This summer was just...exactly what I pictured when people sang summer's praises. I totally get it now! 

I'm really going to miss trips to LBI: waking up lazily with the best mugs ever (mine is the Grand Canyon one, duh!), then continuing the laziness on the beach, then hitting up Frank's Produce for some Jersey tomatoes, then Cassidy's Viking Fish Village for some scallops, then back to the house to my favorite rocking chair.

It's been a good one, summer. Now I have some pumpkin ale to drink.

ps, those tomatoes are actually from my sweet, sweet @melissaishaw who grew them for me. and mostly because i begged her to make me all of these green tomato things. I mean, come on! Green tomato and pimento cheese biscuits??????
