Oh hi there!  HAPPY FRIDAY!  

Last weekend Mr. Pedantic and I rode a camel.  I was wearing a dress and wishing I had grabbed my overalls instead.  All very normal.    

This was probably my favorite read of the week.  I think the internet has learned how nosy I am and I am very happy that it is accommodating.  I feel strangely connected when I can read the shopping list of one of my favorite humans. 

What do you think of this trend?  I’ve never been one to turn down cheese so I think I’m up for at least a single scoop, especially if it is the burrata soft serve.  Gimme all of that.

I found a new color of my favorite lip gloss at Sephora last week and I think I have to have it. 

What have you been eating lately?  Earlier this week I seared up some steaks and made a blue cheese and arugula salad with a bacon vinaigrette and oh my goodness... I am dying to share it, but am leery to give the appearance of falling into this bacon-obsessed culture.  Can we please stop making bacon chewing gum?   

Thankfully, I only find myself at Walmart about four times a year, but even that is far too often.  I think I would be up for giving this a try. 

I NEED THEM!! Saltine Crack Ice Cream Sandwiches.  

The time has come for me to start working on pistachio ice cream.  It is one of my top three favorite flavors but I have never attempted it at home.  I am adding it to my summer bucket list. 

I brought home the most delicious blueberries this week and they have me dreaming about this blueberry pie.  I always have high hopes for berry baked goods but I typically end up eating all my berries by the handful before the butter has even softened.  I just cannot help myself. 

What are your plans for this weekend?  I am going to be baking up a bunch of scones for a bridal shower and hopefully I will make it down to the pool at least once to escape this blistering weather.  Happy, happy weekend to you!

Sincerely, 

Pedantic Foodie
