6 Books I Am Reading This Summer

6 Books I Am Reading This Summer

Hello pretty ladies,

How’s your week going? Mine has been a little crazy with getting back from one trip and heading out on another tomorrow. I also had a health scare, but God is good, and it’s not as severe. I still have some big decisions to make, but it is not life-threatening, which I am so grateful for. I’ll share more in the upcoming weeks. But for now, I am feeling very blessed and thankful. 

Those of you who read my blog or have followed me on social for a while know I love to read and share a seasonal book list of what I’ll be reading that season. Today, I can finally share my summer reading list as all the books have arrived. (The Summer of Songbirds by Kristy Woodson Harvey) is hot off the press on June 16th.

I hope you’ll join me in reading a few of my picks or maybe read all of them with me. I will be sharing stories about them on Instagram, and as I finish each book, I’ll have a little live chat on Instagram. So, if you join me, tune in for more engagement and conversation. In case you missed it last week, I announced the first book I am reading is On Gin Lane. 

6 Books I Am Reading This Summer

 

 

Lucky

 by: Marissa Staply

What if you had the winning lottery ticket but couldn’t turn it in? This is a quick and fun read. The reviews say it was one of the most entertaining novels they’ve read in a long time. A fun rollercoaster!

 

 

The Lake

On Gin Lane 

by: Brook Lea Foster 

Historical fiction set in the Hamptons in the 1950s with socialite characters, this is a great summer beach read. 

 

Wrong place, wrong Time 

by: Gillian Mc Allister

Bestselling author Gillian McAllister comes to an astonishing, compulsively twisty psychological thriller about a mother who witnesses her teenage son stab a man and then seizes on an unconventional way to try to save him, deemed “clever, original, and so addictive it should come with a warning” by Alice Feeney,

 

Romantic Comedy 

By: Curtis Sittenfeld

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK • A comedy writer thinks it’s Time’s and sworn off love until a dreamy pop star flips the script on all her assumptions—a “smart, sophisticated, and fun.”

3 of these are on Reese’s book club:

12 Travel Essentials To Help You Pack

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Happy June! I hope your Memorial weekend was just what you needed it to be. We had a great family weekend, good food, and got some things done around the house. I love that it’s the unofficial kick-off to Summer, and I am ready for it. How about you?

I leave with my good friends tomorrow on a business/Girls’ trip. In celebration of that, this week, I have had a Vacation series, sharing packing tips, vacation outfit ideas, swimsuits & cover-ups, and things you need on a trip. Sharing over on Instagram, in stories, On Like to know it, and on the blog.  Today on the blog, I am sharing 12 Travel Essentials To Help You Pack

12 Items to help you pack with ease and stay organized. These are all items I own and use every time I travel. If you know me or follow me, you know I love to travel/adventure.

I try to go somewhere once a month, even if it’s just a staycation. So I have tried out several organizations’ items and found these are the Best ones for me, and I think you’ll love them too.

12 Travel Essentials To Help You Pack

 

12 Travel Essentials 

1.  Cloth Jewelry zip organizer has clear pockets inside, plenty of hooks, and different sizes to hold your jewelry. I love that you can see everything; it is pretty flat, like a book.

2. Cord organizer I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand all my chargers and cords in a mess. This keeps them tidy.

3. Packing cubes and shoe bags are a must to stay organized and help you pack more without the mess. 💯 a must-have!

4.  Travel bottles with case TSA approved and great to take your favorite toiletries (Comes in several color options)

5. Belt bag by Lululemon is a must-have for hands-free and easy access to your items. Great for Airport, walking, and heading out sightseeing 

6.  Travel flat spray hand sanitizer Smells excellent and is so easy to carry

7.  Stanley 40oz Tumbler with handle easily fits all cup holders and keeps drinks hot or cold for hours. 

8. Compact Mirror with light and magnifying mirror. $8.99-12.99 It is flat and packs well. Identical to the mirror that advertises for $40 

9. 3 in 1 charger folds up compact and is great if you have many items that need to be charged.

10. Kusshi Makeup organizer The only makeup bag you’ll ever need!! It unzips all the way yet has a flat bottom to remain standing. You can see everything verse digging.  Washable and come in several sizes and colors. I love the customization organizer snap-in pouches! For brunches, pockets, etc.

11. Silicone makeup brush holder! Affordable and easy to use

12. Pill case organizers for pills and supplements. Compartments to keep tablets separated snap closer. I know you will love all of these items.

Sunday Dinner Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken

Hello pretty ladies,

Happy Memorial weekend, I hope the weather is beautiful where you live, and you’re doing something fun to celebrate the Holiday weekend.

Today’s “in the kitchen with D’Arcy” Sunday recipe share, I am sharing my easy Grilled Lemon pepper & garlic chicken with you. Perfect for kicking off BBQ season this Memorial Weekend ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸 You can view my reel here.

Sunday Dinner Recipe Grilled Lemon Chicken

—Easy Sunday Dinner—

Grilled Lemon pepper & garlic chicken Recipe:

Chicken breast ( I like thinly sliced)

1/3 cup olive oil 

Juice of 2 lemons & 1 Lime

One lemon sliced

One tablespoon of Lemon pepper season

1/2 teaspoon Black garlic seasoning

Lemon pepper citron seasoning (I do about 3 -4 Shakes)

1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder seasoning

In a 9×12 dish, coat the chicken with olive oil, making sure to coat both sides. I also like like to poke the chicken with a fork to help marinate soak into the chicken. Next, add the juice of the lemons and lime, again making sure to coat both sides of the chicken. Then add all of the seasonings making sure to coat both sides. Cover with plastic or foil, place in the fridge until ready to grill. I like to prep in the morning to allow time to marinate all day. Grill on medium heat. If thin, grill for about 13-15 minutes. If thick, chicken about 9/10 minutes a side.

|Great Paired with|

Paired with Steamed Artichokes served with Parmesan garlic butter, 

Baby red potatoes with green onions, & garlic butter, and a homemade buttermilk biscuit!

Friday Favorite’s Weekly Round- Up #7

Hello Pretty ladies, 

We are all most to the end of May, Schools out in Utah, and were headed into Memorial Weekend end, the kick-off to Summer. I look forward to Bbq season, longer days, spending time in the yard, and pool and lake days! How about you? 

Memorial Weekend means more than significant sales. However, that’s a fun way to spend part of your weekend. Remembering all those who have and are serving this beautiful country is essential. Our freedoms aren’t free, and those who have given so much and families that have made sacrifices must be remembered and thanked. So fly those flags high and remember why we celebrate and have a three-day weekend. 

Thank you to all those who serve and have served this country. God bless you and your families.

Friday Favorite’s Weekly Round-Up #6

Hello pretty ladies, 

I hope your week was a good one! It seemed to fly by for me! I can’t seem to catch up and get everything done on my to-do list! Have you had weeks or months like this? What do you do to keep yourself from stressing out over it? 

I have learned to take a day at a time, and LISTS helps me. I have a weekly to-do list and try to break it down into daily parts… Then, what I don’t finish for that day, I highlight it and make it my first thing for the next day. If you’re like me, you might have great expectations of what you can accomplish in a day! Which can set your week up for failure. 

Instead, make a priority list, a “something I would love to do List” “and an “I have time List” Break the priority list into items for each day. Then when you accomplish that day’s priorities, pick something from the other list. This will allow you to achieve your daily priorities and feel good about the day instead of causing stress.

Let me know if you try this little “life helper” or if you have a tip to help you accomplish your goals of the week by commenting below.

This year was a Chinese theme Hibachi night.  

Shifuku did a fantastic job catering a fun experience and an excellent idea for a Birthday party or even an engagement party or rehearsal dinner.

Quiche Recipe Under 30-Minute Prep Time

Quiche Recipe Under 30-Minute Prep Time

Hello Pretty Ladies,

How did your first week of May go? It flew by for me I can’t believe Mother’s Day is going to be here next week. Do you have fun plans? I haven’t figured out what I want to do yet:) the kids keep asking what I would like to do. Happy to just be together, but I guess there must be food:).

I created a couple of Mother’s Day gift guides over on my LIKEtoKNOW shop and on My Amazon Shop if you are needing some inspiration. Items I love and often give them as gifts as well. 

Today’s in the “kitchen with D’Arcy” Sunday recipe share, I am sharing with you my easy no-fail Quiche Recipe Under 30-Minute Prep Time. This is not your traditional Quiche recipe. I have a couple of shortcuts that do not affect the taste of the quiche. My family loves this as part of a brunch (I served this at Easter) or as a yummy dinner served with a salad. You can alter the veggies and the cheeses to create several different variations, even add bacon or ham.

 

Quiche Recipe Under 30-Minute Prep Time

Recipe for Quiche 

2 cups small mushrooms, sliced 

1 1/2 cups mixed veggies, (such as raw spinach leaves and cooked broccoli and asparagus} I used Mushrooms & Spinach

6 large eggs, lightly beaten 

1 1/4 cups heavy cream 

1/2 cup green onion

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme 

1/4 teaspoon ground garlic

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 

5 to 6 grinds of black peppercorns

1/2 cup grated Gruyere cheese 

1/4 cup grated white Cheddar 

1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano 

frozen pie crust or pie dough (Bake as directed)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray; set aside.

  2. Whisk eggs, heavy cream, thyme, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Fold in the mushroom, spinach, onion, garlic, seasonings, and cheese. Spoon into the prepared pie pan. Bake until set and golden brown, about 30-45 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes; slice. Garnish with thyme and serve (I wrap the edges of the pie crust in foil until the middle is almost done.)

This is a very unconventional way to make Quiche, and I assure you it is so good and cuts time in half. I do not pre-cook the pie crust, nor do I pre-cook the veggies.

Live life stylishly and look good at any age.

Have a beautiful new week, and thank you for taking the time to stop by and read my blog post

| Treat Yourself |

You deserve a little treat, and treating yourself is okay.  Treating yourself doesn’t mean it has to be expensive. It could be as simple as a little something you wanted at Target to something you’ve wanted for years. I am reminding you it’s okay to do something for yourself.

Last Friday’s round-up, I told you about some Gucci sandals I had been wanting and waiting for my size for over a year. They finally arrived, and I was so excited. (photo above) I shared them on Instagram. Even though this was a splurge, I permitted myself, and sometimes we must treat ourselves.

Canvas Style 

My good friend Airica Puckett with AiricaPuckettstyle over on Instagram collaborated with Canvas Style at Christmas (maybe you remember the cute Christmas earrings I shared with you) Airica asked me to be a part of her latest launch. Airica is a Tennessee country girl who loves fashion, pink, statement pieces, and country music. This collection was created with parties and concerts in mind. 

Airica has fantastic style, and Canvas Style creates fun pieces. I am so excited to be a part of the launch of this new collection. If you don’t follow Airica or Canvas Style, you need to.

Kusshi Luxury Makeup bags @Kusshibags

I am so excited to participate in the latest preppy launch of makeup bags. Being organized is the greatest luxury, and let me tell you, these washable makeup bags allow you to see everything in your bag. They open up, have several pockets, and come with a removable makeup brush organizer.

Dime Beauty

Whipped Body Exfoliator is a Luxury exfoliating mask for the body. It is engineered specifically for the body’s skin to break up dead skin cell buildup effectively. The skin on the body is thicker than on the face. So this formula is aggressive enough to exfoliate the body properly but gentle sufficient to nurture the skin’s barrier lipids.
