Pasta with Zucchini and Pesto


Today is Yummy Wednesday. 

There are three things in this world that I truly love. Pasta. Pesto. Zucchini. So when I saw this recipe on Pinterest I couldn't help myself but squeal. I haven't tried it yet but I will this week, hopefully. Check out the recipe here and let me know how it goes. Good luck!


Create or Die


Today is Design Tuesday. 

Something nice and simple for today. An amazing print found on Designspiration (a great site btw if you are looking for some serious design inspiration). Create or die. So maybe it's a bit blunt but it's true. Creating is pretty damn important. Non? Check out the original here



Bondax


Today is Music Monday. 

Lately I'm very into electronic music. I'm not talking Skrillex or Tiesto but I'm talking tasteful, relaxing good electronic music mixed with some dope vocals and fantastic beats. That's where Bondax comes in. These two dudes stem from England and they are wonderful at what they do. Check out their now song, Gold. Go! Press play!

You Only Live Once


Today is Thoughtful Thursday. 

So yes, maybe this saying has been a little overused lately by Twitter and basically everyone else living on planet earth, but when you think about, it has some truth to it. As humans who make mistakes daily and try our best, we only live once and we must keep that in mind. Life goes on and what happens, happens. 

Healthy Mind


Today is Yummy Wednesday. 

I myself am trying to get myself into a healthier state of mind. Trying to make my portions smaller, eat a little healthier and possibly loose some of this summer weight. I totally agree with the saying above. If you want a healthy body, you must have a healthy mind and image of yourself. 

Check out a recipe for a little wrap with goat cheese and tomatoes. Yum! Recipe here

Success


Today is Thoughtful Thursday. 

A small reminder that if you work hard enough you will get what you deserve. So maybe not everyone is lazy but if you work all the time and never quit, at some point you'll be able to sit back and enjoy what you have done and created. 

What are you proud of?

Today is Thoughtful Thursday. 

What more can you say? This image always inspires me and reminds me that we need to focus on the little things in life. Yes, you've heard that several times and it may be cheesy. With so much going on in my life I always need to remind my little brain that it really ain't so bad and that we need to start getting back to the happy roots of life like good books, iced tea and laughing till you fall to the floor. 

What makes you truly happy?

Grilled Avocado

Undercover Martyn


Today is Music Monday. 

While others may be obsessed with One Direction or Maroon 5 (both insanely popular boy bands), I have been a true fan of Two Door Cinema Club since their first album release in 2007. I love how energetic and exciting their music is. With three young members from the UK, these guys are PURE gold. Their new album, Beacon, is dropping this September and I am counting down the days. 

Listen to my favorite track of theirs, Undercover Martyn, below...
