You really can’t beat Memorial Day weekend! It always comes at just the right time and really does feel like the official start of summer. My family has been in Del Mar, California enjoying tons of sunshine, lots of rosé, and ample amounts of fresh seafood (the crab legs have been unreal!). I’m off to pilates this morning and then enjoying the beach before we’re having a little barbecue with some friends. This happy scene is from our Friday evening spread during sunset… literally Heaven on earth! I hope y’all are having a wonderful long weekend! Cheers to no work tomorrow!
