First, a whiskey sour is a terrific summer cocktail. So is Bowery Hotel’s Luna de Fresa ideally made by Walter Easterbrook.
Next, a backhanded compliment is still a compliment.
As in “this is the best I’ve ever seen you look” and “you’ve lost a ton of weight” when said by a handsome, but socially awkward, man.
On the other hand, if my mother said either thing to me, I wouldn’t speak to her for a week.
Also, contrary to this article, fitness classes are not 50% easier the second time around.
Still, this notion got me in the door for Pure Barre class #2. Maybe the third time will be the charm. Hopefully. You know how I feel about classes.
I’m not the first person to say “no” to being a bridesmaid.
This $50 Banana Republic top has a bit of magic to it. I’m not surprised it’s mostly sold out in white.
Finally, Tinder is still hilarious and alarming. (NSFW)
What did you learn this weekend?

I’d forgotten all about Banana Republic! I used to love that shop! And I probably need to try a whiskey sour so I can judge for myself 😉
In nyc there’s a BR shop seemingly every 20 blocks so I can’t forget!
Lucky you! But must be very tempting all the time!
I learned that I need to really be patient with my overly dramatic, doesn’t shut up, passive-aggressive MIL. Loved this post and I really need one of those pretty drinks you had.
Please know that I wish I could blog more about the context of those compliments.
I learnt that when preparing to move home, it is best to leave the packing of one’s toothbrush recharger till the very end…I think it’s inside the box three from the ceiling but who’s going up there? Lesson learnt 🙂
Oops! 😉 Moving can be hard.
I rewatched both seasons of Orange is the New Black. So yes, laziness abounded.
Sounds heavenly
