It’s been a golden weekend so far:
1. The weather has been spectacular the past few days. High 70s, almost 80 during the day, in January. Gotta love San Diego.
Blue skies by day, golden sunsets in the evening.
2. These golden-colored $1 dollar coins. I paid to exit a parking lot using a self-pay machine and this is how it gave me my change.
I’d actually never seen these coins before. I used them to buy a pack of gum at the gas station and then to pay for part of my groceries and the clerks said they had never seen them, either.
They’re shiny and pretty, but very heavy. I was glad to use them and and get them out of my purse because with these in it, it felt like it was about 72 pounds slung over my shoulder.
3. These golden mango chunks.
4. This dough. And it’s delicious.
Sort of a twist on these
5. After all that baking, there were dishes. Just a couple.
5. This Method dish soap is golden. The smell of clementines makes my kitchen smell nice and fresh.
I’ve been a fan of Method for years. It’s more on the natural side of the spectrum and it works, and it doesn’t dry my hands out as badly as many other dish soaps (but I do wear rubber gloves as much as possible, too).
6. The $50 Spa Gift Card & Tropicana Giveaway is going to make someone feel pretty golden.
7. Orange PushUp Smoothie. Golden, delicious, creamy, sweet; tastes like an old-fashioned PushUp.
What’s been golden in your world?
I hope you’re enjoying the weekend!
Love the colours in this post :-)
Things that are golden in my world:
– Bright sun shine and warm weather in January!!!
– Not having to go to class
– Had a great weekend and threw a fun 24×24 dinner (p.s. thanks for the sweet comment!)
Nice weather, it’s been super mild here too for winter. Golden for me has been time to relax and get our house under control this weekend.
Ooh that weather looks amazing. What I wouldn’t give to be enjoying that sun right now! Haha how’s the California property market looking right about now…maybe I’ll have to look into it ;).
Great photos! I understand those coins are new, they have taken “In God We Trust” off of them. Sad by true.
One day, when we’ve saved up enough money to do our Great US West Coast Tour I am so coming to San Diego! It always looks so beautiful in your pictures.
It’s cold and grey here – but we brighten the place up with lots of yummy citrus fruit. :)
I hope you DO get here one day!
That weather sounds perfect right about now as I shiver under my blankets, extra sweaters with the heater pointed directly at me – lol!
I have had a bunch of those coins before from buying train tickets. The machine gave me all of my change in them and then I tried to spend them as fast as I could!
I love those gold dollars. I used to get them from the “tooth fairy” occasionally and I was always so excited. I know I still have them in a safe place in my room too. Weird? Maybe, but still good childhood memories!
Is that a new picture of you on the sidebar? I really like it!
I’ve had it up for 2-3 weeks so yes, fairly new. Thanks!
