TO DO
Go to a concert.
We had two concerts this month - American Idol Live! And OAR (our favorite band). We hadn’t been to a concert in so long so it was fun to sing, dance, laugh and enjoy! If you haven’t been in a while (like us) then what are you waiting for!? I mean... T Swift would be next on my bucket list.
TO SEE
Crazy Rich Asians
I recommended this book on February’s list, but this movie is also fantastic. If you need a refresher, it’s about a girl who loves a guy and has no idea he’s one of the richest people in the world until he asks her to come visit his family in Asia. She agrees and is in for much more than she anticipated. J loved it too and he hadn’t read the book yet.
TO TRY
So my beach spray tan (here) was fantastic, that was done at the salon. I loved it because the color was absolutely zero orange and the purple undertones caused a perfect brown color. I ordered their at home self tanner (Venetian) and had the same color results. The mist is really even application but messy (so apply outside or in a shower). I just ordered the mousse (use a mitt) ! Definitely one of the best colors and quality on the market and affordable compared to many other high quality versions on the market!
TO READ
Okay, this book is not for the faint of heart. It’s scandalous and darker than my normal picks. But after I read Gone Girl for the first time I immediately devoured all of Gillian Flynn’s books. Plus, I just started the new HBO series starring Amy Adams and have been enjoying it so far! This book is about a young journalist who returns to her hometown to cover the murder of two teen girls, you find out more about her secret past and the trauma’s she’s faced along the way.
TO MAKE
Time for family.
This month has been a reminder that future moments and memories with family are not guaranteed. Take advantage of your family time. Drive the extra few hours, have dinner, laugh, cry, or just sit and be there. Working a resident’s schedule has not been easy while trying to make family a priority this month, but it’s fulfilling to spend time with the people you love the most.
TO TASTE
Gin and Tonic
I loved drinking these on the beach in May. For some reason though every time I’ve ordered them at bars, they haven’t been as good as when my bartender J makes them. He does the perfect balance of tonic water, fresh lime, and high quality gin. Plus, there’s nothing worse than flat tonic water at a bar.
