This past week has been like one big love fest.
First there was prancing around town with my favorite ladies on Sunday.
Then there was my hot date with some takeout and reality TV on Monday.
On Tuesday, my boo Erica arrived for a brief but much-needed visit. Ain’t no rain keepin’ us from a good time.
Then on Wednesday I got to hit the town for a bit with my Long Island princess, Amanda. Challah!

The love was flowing all over the place yesterday as well. For starters, can we just assess the label of these Rawvolution Apple Raisin Cookies I’ve been enjoying?

Ummmm is that a male nipple I see? I’ll let this one slide because the cookies are bomb…and because being “raw” is like, soo artsy 😉
But seriously, these cookies rock. With the ingredients being apples, almonds, raisins, raw coconut nectar, cinnamon, they’re essentially like an energy/granola bar. But round shape = cookie, duh.

To top the week-of-love off, yesterday evening I got a visit from the people who love me most in this world – Momma and Poppa G!!! It was a short visit, but a great one. Mom got to see the Bungalow for the first time, and we enjoyed a delicious Italian dinner.

And now, of course I need to share some love with you! Here are the winners of my macaron giveaway:

Have any points of your week so far been particularly lovely??










Sounds like an awesome week, Gracie! Have fun in Baltimore! 😀
I had a lovely visit to Disney and also a lovely visit from my Mom last night! Now I have to pack…not so lovely.
Those “cookies” sound so good! Not that they could replace good old chocolate chip, though.
My grandpa is visiting me right now actually and it has been great!

Sounds like great week:) Hmmm the sun made an appearance this week, so I’m hoping it stays through the weekend so I can finally enjoy it!
I had a Glee night with a bunch of old high school friends and it was pretty much amazing. Even being separated for most of the year, we have still managed to stay so close. Closer actually in some cases! That was definitely the highlight of my week
aw I am glad you got to see your parents! I live 15 minutes from mine but miss them if I go a week or 2 without seeing them!

My husband and I found out that we are having a baby! It is amazing how something can turn your entire world upside down! But in a totally good way!!!
Glad that you also had a wonderful week!

Sounds like your having a great week!
And those cookies sound amazing. You’re so right too- circle shape = cookie, regardless of the ingredients. 😉
Raw is artsy, so true! I also pranced around town with my ladies this week-isn’t it the best? Enjoy Baltimore!
