Fight Back: The Dog Days of Summer


Here are my picks for things to do/watch/read to overcome the dog days of Summer.

Go see Momma Mia. It's a fun, joyful movie.

Watch Tori and Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood on the Oxygen channel or Flipping Out on Bravo. Both reality shows, both guilty pleasures.

Read Not Quite What I Was Planning. Great, quick read. An entire book of six-word memoirs. Written by the famous and not so famous. Very compelling. Try writing your own.

Read I Was Told There'd Be Cake. Book of essays that reads like a memoir. Funny, funny, funny.

Eat. Now that the tomato scare has passed eat this salad. Tomato, mozzarella, basil, drizzle on olive oil and balsalmic vinegar. Yummy. I could eat this everyday. (I'm sure this salad has a name but it escapes me.)

If all else fails, grab your BFF's, drink champagne and dance on the coffee table.

Oh my gosh. Paige is so NOT going to like that picture of her. Is that a maternity top???!?!? Looks like fun!

Yes, my apologies to Paige. I noticed the bump too but it was the best picture out of all of them.
