We’ve really been feeling the heat of summer where I live, so I just wasn’t in the mood to eat something hot for dinner…so I made this!
The Summer Beauty Tabbouleh is simply delicious and just the thing for the summer months ahead! Try it over a bed of arugula, mix in with some grilled chicken, or as a snack with some crackers! Some of my favorite are the Almond flavored Nut-Thins made by Blue Diamond©
Here is a recipe card for easy pinning!
Enjoy!

![It’s Valentine’s Day and TBH it’s been a strange week.
I went to a wedding and a funeral all in the same week. It feels weird to be swinging from these two extremes. It’s got me thinking: what on earth am I supposed to be learning from this?
So much joy + bliss followed by so much sadness + sorrow. Selfishly I felt like I wasn’t done experiencing the joy and happiness.
But I’m realizing I’ve been holding all these emotions at once. What a beautifully complex experience, being a human is✨✨. We can hold all of these emotions, and one doesn’t have to cancel out the other [hello black and white thinking].
.
I know this wasn’t the most “valentinesy” post but it’s where I’m at, so it’s what I’m sharing. Whatever your situation is this Valentine’s Day, may you see how precious your life truly is. In the words of Gary V: 400 TRILLION to 1. These are the odds that you would be born as a human into this world. That’s how rare it is that YOU exist. Let’s celebrate those odds and love ourselves and all the complexities of what it means to be human✨✨

![We recently had a crazy travel experience where we got stuck at the DC airport for 15 hours ✈️
.
Landed in Boston at 2:30 AM. Followed by an hour long drive, a 4 hour night sleep, and another 3 1/2 hour drive 🚗
.
It certainly wasn’t the travel experience I wanted, but it’s the one I was given. This experience reminded me that we have [choices] in how we navigate the cards we’ve been dealt.
Of course we let ourselves feel frustrated but once we accepted that this was the best course of action we could take to get where we wanted to go, we were able to surrender and just go with the F L O W.
.
I let go of rules/thoughts like:
* I can’t function on four hours of sleep
* I was supposed to be there by now
* I’ve never been stuck somewhere for this long
* How will we do this?
* This isn’t what I had envisioned
We also learned how much love and support we had, for all the people who were checking in on us. And for the record this was truly WORTH every second, to get to see two friends of ours exchange vows and join in celebrating their big day. By the time it was over it’s almost as if we forgot how crazy our journey had been to get there.
My take away from this wild ride was that my husband and I make an amazing team and that together we can do hard things and show up for the people we love 💕

Have you ever had a crazy travel experience? What did you learn from it?
