I hope you read my other post about the details of my all liquid diet. I am currently learning how to chew again and chewing is becoming easier with each passing day. I’m even starting to get some feeling back in my face. 6 weeks really flew by, but my surgery also feels like it was a lifetime ago. Being restricted to only liquids for 6 weeks got me thinking about food in a different way. I also realized a lot of things about food and the customs that surround it. Here are a few thoughts I have on food now after experiencing an all-liquid diet:
No Flash Photography
Happy Friday! I felt like this week has been dragging along so slowly but now it’s pretty much the weekend and I am so excited to show you this post! Last weekend I went to the Baltimore Museum of Art with one of my best friends, Kayla. We have been friends since we were like 4 and she is a super talented photographer. You should totally check out her website (16:7 Photography). I’m giving her most of the photo creds for this post, except for the adorable candids I took of her admiring art. But this post is also really exciting for me because now after 6 weeks of kind of being off the radar, I’m actually showing my “new” face online now. I still have a little bit of swelling and little feeling in my lips, but I’m actually starting to feel confident about my new face now. It will still take a lot of getting used to but hi world! This is what I look like now.
J.Crew in Shepherdstown
Happy Monday everyone! Hope you’re excited for whatever this week has in store for you! Today’s post is from the 4th of July weekend when I went to West Virginia (you can read all about that post here). My aunt gave my mom and me a tour of her old college town- Shepherdstown. It really is an adorable town and I wore a new dress from J.Crew that I got from the Hagerstown Outlets (which you can read about in this post too).

Kate Spade Haul
Today I wanted to share my recent Kate Spade purchases that I bought at the outlets over the weekend. Kate Spade is one of my absolute favorite brands. I literally have so much from this brand-purses, wallets, earrings, perfume, a watch and flip flops! Because it was 4th of July weekend, everything in the store was 70% off! I got all of this for a steal and I’m so excited for all of my new goodies. Hope you like my new finds as much as I do!
4th of July Weekend Recap
Hope you enjoyed the long 4th of July weekend! I went to West Virginia with my family and then Frederick to visit my freshman year roomie. It was very low-key and relaxing. You can read more about my other adventures this weekend later, but for now here are some of the pictures I took this weekend and on the 4th of July.
Oreo Coolwhip Mud Dessert
The 4th of July is almost here and you know what that means – endless cookouts and great food! But if you’re at a loss as to what to bring to wow your friends and family, look no further. I’ve been making this dessert since I was little (thanks to the help of my mom) and it is always a crowd favorite! Not only is it really simple and cheap to make, this refreshing and cool treat is sure to please everyone!

Bows and Stripes
The 4th of July is just around the corner! You remember my other post about my thrifting adventures? This is my other find! I’m obsessed with navy and white stripes so when I found this $13 dress the other day, I knew I had to get it! Pairing a dress like this with some white Converse and a few hints of red will get you the perfect 4th of July outfit.
