Summer days

Happy first day of summer! I cannot believe that July is just one week away: INsane. Welp, it’s officially feeling/looking like summer, and I am loving it. Even though I already have a sunburn and I am daydreaming of rosé.

Here’s my bucket list for this summer:

Surfing in Rhode Island (I’ve been twice in Florida, but get FOMO every time I see the surfers in Narragansett Beach)

Oyster happy hour somewhere in Boston (that also involves champagne, obv.)

A one-night “staycation” to Block Island and rent a moped

Hit up SoWa on a Sunday, mainly for the food trucks

A random vacation day during the week to head to the beach

Master a good summer dessert recipe 

Explore Portland, Maine (we’re going there for a wedding, and I am determined to make a weekend of it)

Catch a fish

Red Sox game

Have a picnic

Go to a shooting range

Visit a vineyard

Stock up on fruit from a Farmer’s Market

Kayak, often

Have friends over for a BBQ (since we finally have a deck!)

Aside from these things, I hope to spend a lot of time with friends, family, and enjoy as much time outside as possible. In New England, these few beautiful months we get are few and far-between, so once the 80 degree days roll around, we need to make every. day. count.

Cheers!
