One of my favorite easy meals is Greek/meditteranean. The options are endless. First, grab hummus, tzatziki, tomatoes, cucumbers. You can also add a can of chickpeas, crumbled feta, or banana peppers. You can use all of it to make a salad, a rice bowl, or a pita wrap. I add rotisserie chicken, and you have a whole meal and barely cooked anything! :)
Today is my daughter's graduation party and we're keeping it simple. Rather than theming around her high school colors, she chose pink! Pops of lemon yellow will play well against hazy skies. (I mentioned to the cashier at Trader Joe's that the flowers were for the party and she said "Tell her congrats! The peonies are on the house!" WHAT.) 🩷
I love your posts so much! They really have helped bring joy into a really hard season I’m going through atm but a good reminder that there can still be beautiful, joyful little things even amongst the hard. I recommend and send your posts to all my friends 💛💛💛
GROUP PROJECT:
1. I am seeking advice on how to have a great summer in New York! (It’s my first one!) Where should I go? What should I do?
2. What are your favorite easy meals to make at the beach? I need some ideas!!

That sounds AMAZING!
Gotta explore the Met Cloisters for a day! It feels like an escape from the bustle of the city.
And my go-to beach food is bringing along some bagels and some fresh fruit to snack on amongst friends.
Would it be possible to get the ingredient amounts for the Dot Muffins and the birthday cake protein balls? 🫐
I just found a recipe for the protein balls which sounds quite similar. https://nourishedbynic.com/easy-birthday-cake-protein-balls/#recipe
I would totally subscribe to a quarterly print magazine !! or maybe a mini monthly magazine that I could put on my bulletin board at work? <3
You are so sweet! I just started doing a printable monthly zine! I did one for May, and am working on June’s!

Thank you, Lizzy! This means the world to me!!
Amazing post!
Beach meal idea: feta and cucumber sandwich with mayo and microgreens or arugula. I like it on a denser whole grain bread like Dave’s Killer.
Oh this is GOOD! Cucumber makes perfect sense on the beach.
The cucumber, the salty cheese, oh and a little bit of orange marmalade too!!
