Happy Weekend friends!
This post is going up later than expected as yesterday was one of those days. My last meeting of the day ran far longer than expected, and I found myself finishing the conference call just as I was starting the weekend with friends. I kicked off the weekend on this side of the pond by catching up with a girlfriend during a manicure and pedicure followed by a double date at Thai Geneva with our friend Ed & Kerrie.
Hopefully within the next few minutes the rain will either stop or ease up so we can head out for our ten-mile long run. Until then, I’m just sipping NUUN, coffee and fueling with peanut butter and banana toast.
Here are a few of my favorite articles, recipes, blog posts and things that are making me smile this week!
As always, please share what your favorites are this week in the comments section so I can check them out!

So the FDA decided to crack down on KIND bars earlier this week, which has led to a number of articles and responses. I love this response from R.D. Cynthia Sass and this explanation on why the FDA action doesn’t mean they aren’t healthy. I personally LOVE Kind Bars, especially their low sugar options.
I can only imagine how much time fashion bloggers take to stage most of their Instagram photos but what about Barbie? At 700,000 followers and growing, it’s not all fun and games over on the Barbie Instagram account.

I cashed in my Nordstrom gift card yesterday for three items I’ve been eyeing for ages! Luckily each of the pieces are under $80, so I was able to snag all 3 for less than $200! This Summer you’ll see me exploring and relaxing in these shoes and sipping wine by the lake in this dress and these wedges.
We forgot how delicious a simple pesto is until we made it on Sunday night. This recipe is super simple but also provides ideas for some fresh spins on regular pesto.
Since I’m traveling Monday through Wednesday this week, these chocolate peanut butter bites will be a perfect snack for the flight and during the conference.
