Weekending: Spring Break Roundup

April 17, 2017 By MeghanGrant 8 Comments

Weekending: Spring Break Roundup - I'm Fixin' To - @mbg0112Happy Little Prints with a happy little view from east beach at Bald Head Island

Good morning & Happy Monday!  I hope you had a lovely Easter weekend.  DG and I were on spring break last week, so I’m going to be needing some extra coffee to transition back into the work week.  Our break was the perfect mix of relaxation and exploration at Bald Head Island (travel guide coming Thursday), taking care of things around our house, and catching up with friends.  Here’s a quick look at what we did on break:

Thanks to my friend Hannah, I’ve been participating in Mask Monday with these masks from Cosmedix.  I’ve tried the detox and glow masks and can’t wait to try the restore mask this week.

I’ve been trying to drink more water and here are my favorite infused water recipes here.  P.S. this is my go-to shade for warm weather.

Except when I get a wild hair at Paintbase and try a new shade.  I am currently wearing “The I’s Have It.”

I had the best blogger dinner with some of my favorite gals on Wednesday at Dino’s Capri restaurant in Raleigh.  It was the best Italian food I’ve ever had!

After working out on Saturday, I stopped and picked up some donuts for the weekend and I tried the fried chicken sandwich with pimiento cheese and holy goodness was it delicious.  If you have a Rise Biscuits & Donuts near you, try it!

How was your weekend?  Link up with Biana and me and tell us all about it!

Happy Monday!
