Summer Dollar Tree Finds & A Costco Upgrade

 I stopped in at Dollar Tree last week and they were stocked for summer!

Unless you've been living under a rock (or don't shop at DT), you probably know that DT upped it's price to $1.25.
That definitely seems to have brought in higher quality items.  
The garden section had all kinds of accessories for the planting season.
They have you covered for summer entertaining.

Pick a fruit, any fruit!
They had lots of patriotic decor and serving pieces too.
Lots of grill themed items...
This area was new to me, all different stick on tiles for your walls. And it's removable!
They had some new to me beauty items. This one intrigued me so I bought one but the smell was off. I would say this is a "don't buy".
I also found this Baby Foot dupe. I haven't tried it yet but I've heard it's just as good as the original.
These little alarms are highly rated and I got one for one of our outside doors. It is LOUD!
This was a Costco find and I got it to upgrade my DT sun shade which was a miss. I'm loving this sunshade. It's huge and easy to set up and take down.

Have you been summer shopping?

Easter in NYC

 We hopped a train to NYC on Easter morning to have brunch with City Girl.

It's always fun to walk around the city.

We had brunch at Cosme.

The food was upscale Mexican and sooooo yummy!


After brunch we walked around a bit.
We saw the Harry Potter store but when we tried to get in, we found out there was a 3 hour wait!  Next time!
Off to Fishs Eddy for us. I got a new NYC mug and a cute reusable shopping bag.
We also stopped in at Strand Bookstore which is pretty awesome.
Before we knew it, it was time to go back to the train station.





  
















The trees were just starting to bloom and signs of spring were everywhere even though it was a bit chilly that day.

{Travel} Springtime Boston Visit

I'm still catching up on my blog posts, do we still even want them? Well I do so  here goes. We had a trip to Boston to visit College Girl back in April.

It started with a latte from Tatte. See what I did there?
These have become my favorite jeans and I wear them constantly.
A view from the hotel.
We went the week before Easter because the Boston Marathon was the following weekend and hotel rooms were crazy expensive and hard to get.
Dinner the first night was at Joe's on Newbury.  It was a fun place. We walked around town afterwards. It was so nice being in Boston in the springtime!

The next morning we picked her up at her apartment and went to our favorite bagel place (Pavement) for some fuel. It was going to be a busy day.

We headed to campus because she was giving Welcome Day tours to incoming freshman.   I liked seeing the flag of the Ukraine flying with our flag.  We had some time to wait before her tour so we hung out in this cool umbrella tent for awhile and by the fire pits around campus.



We hopped on her tour and it was fun taking the tour again, we haven't done it in four years and now we had the best tour guide.  I'm glad we got to see the inside of this amazing ISEC building.

Walking around town and seeing all of the new spring flowers.   We took her shopping and on some excursions for her final assignment.   (She needed photos at places that were easier to drive to.)  We even saw a little snow!
Dinner that night was at a tapas place called Dali in Somerville.
I'm so glad we tried it.  We won't have many more trips to Boston, so we are trying to fit in as much as we can.

The food was delicious and the atmosphere was so cool. It looked like a great place for a big group celebration.

 The sangria was also tasty!
The next morning we went to Veggie Galaxy in Cambridge. Another fave! We hadn't been inside the restaurant in two years. So good to be back!
We found this cool tunnel full of graffiti so of course we had to take some pics.
Always up for a mini photo shoot!
