Block Island Adventure: Summer Recap Numbero Uno

Block Island is my happy place. You know what I'm talking about, the kind of place that makes you feel most relaxed, happy, and at peace.  It's a perfect mix of open beaches, quiet streets, and ice cream. Everyone is friendly and it's just kinda perfect. We went this summer to celebrate my 30th birthday and it was just marvelous. We sun bathed, toured the island on a moped (which I highly recommend), visited the famous bluffs, and ate ourselves silly. I'm almost positive that I had the best meal of my life a The Beachhead--can we say lobster mac-n-cheese? Yup, I went there. And I wasn't sorry about it. It was a great time, that's for damn sure. 

ugly, right?!

My Birthday dinner...look at his handsome mug?!

ummm, just call me super excited

As I've mentioned before, I'm a huge Harry Potter nerd. Like HUGE.  And I just heard that J.K. Rowling is writing a new movie series. Apparently, it's inspired by the Hogwarts textbook Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. I have to say that this is a VERY interesting take, and I would not for a million years have thought of this plot line myself. I can't wait to see how everything turns out.  I am so excited, I just can't hide it..

What Would You Doooooooo With 3 Months Off

Jenni always posts the best blogging challenges, and this month's challenge is no different.  One of her questions really intrigued me, so much so I felt compelled to answer.

If you could take three months off from your current life and do anything in the world, what would you do?

My answer is an absolute NO BRAINER. I would move to Paris for three months and get to know myself. I would wander the streets of the different arrondissements  stopping in cafes and shops. I would write in a journal about everything and nothing.  I would sign up for French lessons and become tres fluent (a life goal of mine). I would embrace the culture and determine what I value most in this life. I would visit Versailles and do all of those quintessential things one does in Paris.  Basically, I would pull a Sabrina and I would find myself in Paris. 

where i would be living, obviously

just one of the cafes i would be drinking endless cups of coffee in
