Hey guys! Hello and welcome to the tenth edition of The Morning Brew – with the BFF’s! If you’re one of our email subscribers (which you totally should be!) then you know that we love sharing our weekly favorites as well as a little bit about what we’ve been up to during the week when we weren’t blogging. It’s a lot of fun for sure! Well, now we’ve decided to expand this by starting a weekly post on Monday morning’s. We’ll be sharing little bits of our weeks, rants and rambles, as well as some of the things that we’re loving. So grab a nice cup o’ Joe (or tea) and chat with us this morning. Feel free to leave a comment, and share about your past week as well. We’d love to hear what everyone’s been up to.
How did you celebrate Memorial Day?
Here are a few of the things that we just couldn’t get enough of this week:
Plants, again! – I finished planting most of my plants last weeks and they’re already getting big! I also got super excited when I saw the lettuce seed plants start to come up so now I can have salad all the time!






This week started with some quality chilling, and gardening, and ended with me working the rest of the week. I was slightly bummed because everyone was talking about their long weekends and how awesome it was gonna be, and I had to work it all. LOL. It was alright though, at least I got some chill time with my cat, Tiger.






Sometimes you need a break to de-stress and enjoy the coffee. Our memorial day was very uneventful. We didn’t even leave the house this year. 🙂
Yup I 100% agree with you Amanda! Same here. I think I left the house though, but I certainly didn’t do a ton.ha
Give me all the sweet corn! I have never had anything like that before, so now I am wicked excited to try it.
Totally! Sweet corn is sooooo good when its nice n sweet!
Your cat looks a lot like mine though I have a tail-less tabby cat. And those are some really great deals! I love Forever 21.
Oh nice! Cat twins! Same here, they have so many great items
Thanks for all your summary! Love seeing what you’ve been busy with! Gosh…I feel just like Tiger this past week-end. I tried to catch up on sleep from all the business travel and insomnia I experienced the week prior. But I was able to prep up our patio and garden area too. Getting ready for the summer 🙂
Thanks Cara! Yeah we’ve been getting ready for summer a lot too. I’m glad you got to channel your inner Tiger and get some rest though 🙂
That sweet corn looks really good! Looking forward to the recipe.
I liked your sales updates! I saw the Old Navy tee, but I wasn’t happy with the word “bikini” on my plus sized shirt. The pineapple one is adorable!
Bikini’s can be for all sizes 🙂
Plus, it’s a summer staple regardless ha. I love them both, personally. Thanks for stopping by Terri!
Hope you had a great Memorial Day! We went swimming and had a barbecue!
Wow that sounds like a lot of fun! Ours was good, and lazy 😀
I love the cucumber and melon thing. It looks and sounds like it would be really refreshing. Well done on the plants.
Thank you! They’re so easy to take care of, this is coming from someone who doesn’t like to bother with plants at all. Lol
I love the coral bikini and the pussybow blouse. Plus you have got to love snapchat haha!
I knew I would regret not having a garden this year. Not even a small herb garden which I love. Next year.
It’s not too late Jill! You could just get some plants that are already started and plant them in pots to keep them low maintenance. 🙂
Oh my gosh I love street corn! I have a friend from Mexico and he made it for me years ago and I’ve been hooked every since! Great post- enjoy the week ladies!
Wow thats awesome! I’m sure his was much more authentic too. I’m jealous! lol
I love your little garden. It is absolutely the cutest thing ever. I can’t wait to get planting!
Thank you! Better start soon so everything can get big for the summer!
I can totally relate to the smoothie spill! Did the same thing myself about 2 weeks ago, sheesh that stuff is messy to clean up!
Lol nice! It was annoying to clean up for sure, its annoying when things like that happen.
A group of about 20 of us went down to Tennessee on a four wheeling trip. We went to Brimstone which is on 20,000 acres of land and it has 300 miles of trails to ride. Over the weekend, we go to see Cam and Kip Moore in concert!!
All such fun stuff! Love the garden!
Seems you had a pretty awesome week and got some things done. I love plants I have two so far would love to get me some more. Food looks yummy 🙂
You should! Try the discount plant section at your Walmart or Lowes. I’ve gotten some awesome new plants there.
That street corn recipe looks REALLY good. I wish I could cat nap all day outside like Tiger does. If only…
Believe me, it was super good lol. Same here. Tiger lives a life of luxury lol
I planted all weekend as well! It was awesome! Of course, I still have plants to put in pots…but at least everything is in the ground 🙂
Yep that’s the main thing!
I can’t grow anything, so hubby deals with the garden and herbs…I am in charge of clean up.
Aww. Well I bet you do the clean up super well 🙂
Oh man! That smoothie spill! lol! I would so end up doing something like that!
Yeah, I kept making mistakes all day. Lol The best thing to do is laugh though!
I am behind on my gardening. I love street corn and yours is delicious! I also am loving your deals of the week. I need to order that linen shift dress
I am too! It seems like just when I get caught up I go buy more plants! Thanks.
Stopping by from Sunday’s Best. I love the Mexican Street Corn, I’ll be making it for the 4th of July. Thanks for letting me know about the deals at Forever 21 too. I hope you will make Sunday’s Best a regular stop.
No problem Rhonda! I really need to make some more street corn soon. We’ll definitely keep stopping by!
