On My Radar Screen

Happy Friday!! These summer weeks are going by just a little too quickly for me...are you feeling the same way? It has been hot, hot, hot here on the East Coast and I have to keep reminding myself that I should enjoy every minute of it...I will be seriously missing these days come February!
 
Here are a few random things hitting up on my radar screen this week...

Aren't these skyline prints by Karen Young fun? Check out her Etsy shop, Loose Petals,  for more cities.

I also love this "Food Map of Italy" print from Lucile's Kitchen...check out her Etsy shop here.

Do you know about "Manhattanhenge"? Don't worry, neither did I, until I read about it on Cup of Jo and I have lived in the NYC area for nearly 30 years! Apparently there are two days a year when the sun aligns perfectly with the grid of Manhattan streets to create surreal rays of sunlight on the crosstown streets...you can witness this phenomenon this Saturday, July 13th at approximately 8:20pm. Read more about it here.

Doesn't Francis Ford Coppola's boutique hotel, Santa Margherita, featured by Marsha from Splenderosa, look fabulous? Note to self - add this to my ever growing bucket list. Also, don't forget to visit Splenderosa's jewelry boutique - right now Marsha is offering 50% off on fashion necklaces and bracelets!

That pretty much wraps things up for this week...I am planning on enjoying these warm summer days as much as possible, relaxing by the pool with a novel (The Impossible Lives of Greta Wells and Instructions For A Heatwave are next on my list) and, perhaps, a cocktail or two...this one sounds delicious.

Have a beautiful summer weekend wherever you may be wandering!!
