Now that summer has “officially” begun (even though me and this girl have proclaimed it ‘summer’ since about the last week in May) – it’s time to do something special to celebrate it every day!
If you follow me on Instagram, you know that today, I’m rocking a pop of color to celebrate the second day of the season!
I’ve been finding myself feeling like my whole summer is passing me by while I’m stuck inside studyingโฆso my little “do something little every day to celebrate the season” is one way that I can combat that. Even if I’m not playing on the beach, I can at least feel like I’m doing something to enjoy my summer.
Last night, it was a cookout + ice cream.
Today it was my green pants.
Gotta take the little things, right?
Chad came home for lunch and while he ate leftover turkey burgers from last night , I wanted something a little different (read: when I have a fully-stocked kitchen it’s hard for me not to want to break into everything all at once).
Hummus & veggie sandwich with more of those cherries on the side!
I love veggie and hummus sandwiches in the summertime. They’re a nice change from turkey and they’re much lighter which works wonderfully with the warmer weather.
I simply toasted up 2 slices of 100% whole wheat bread then slathered each side with hummus + avocado.
Then I simply added mixed greens and shredded carrots.
Polished off with a mix of rainier and red cherries –
Perfectly refreshing.

Love your idea to do one thing a day. I’ve been wearing a bright orange bag to work which makes me feel summery and cheery despite the fact that I am sitting indoors in an office all day. I’m excited to see how you continue to embrace the summer each day!
