Flavor Buffet: 6/3/2022
Toasted five years of this blog (!!) on May 30 with a delicious summer pasta that included tomatoes, kale, capers, and mushrooms. So good!
Good morning! Happy Friday. I can’t believe June has begun and we’ve entered into my favorite three months of the year. Ahh, summer…
Not only is today my parent’s 49th wedding anniversary (woohoo!), it’s also National Doughnut Day which is a pretty fantastic combo if you ask me. Happy Anniversary to my amazing parents - I hope the day is joyful! Thank you for always being awesome and for being such incredible role models throughout my life. :)
National Doughnut Day?! Where do I even begin? Well, I need to go get a doughnut (or a few) obviously….
Let’s get to the Buffet. I have doughnuts to buy. ;)

Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Platinum Jubilee this week! Pretty incredible.
Washable rugs are a very good idea. Here’s a roundup of the best ones available.
Thoroughly enjoyed reading about what David Sedaris eats in a week. “Too much lunch puts me in a stupor, but at night, I really take the gloves off.” Same!

Some go-to looks for summer - lots of linen for me, please!
We’re making a version of this delicious dish for dinner tonight. Yum!
This recipe for Ultimate Nachos has me reconsidering my usual “pile-o-chips” method…
Why must I love this low-key-chic Loewe Tote? I’ve been eyeing it for over a year.
I have been in detective mode recently trying to clear my skin (redness, breakouts, extra dry) and the Ursa Major Fantastic Face Wash has been great as step one in my evening routine.
Another face favorite as of late? Beauty Counter’s Supreme Cream for an overnight moisturizer. I’m finally trying the “less is more” mentality, prioritizing what’s best for my skin, and not assuming I need every “popular” skincare item I see online.
One more item to consider: The Greta Clog from M. Gemi. I’m a sucker for suede and taupe and shoes and… :)
And last, but not least, doughnuts! I love the gluten free selection at Kane’s Donuts (must-order: Plain Chocolate Frosted) as well as Freedom Gluten Free Bakery (Old Fashioned is my favorite). Yum!
Have a great weekend! Relax, unwind, and enjoy.
