Hope you’re having a peachy day.

My day hasn’t been super peachy so far.

I managed to slice my finger open while I was slicing some bread with a humongous serrated knife and did quite a number on it. Just one of those little kitchen calamities that happen but I wish I had one of these to eat to forget about the injury.

However, we are headed to the beach right now. I may just order one.

Yes, that’s sound like a plan.

What’s been the best part of your weekend so far?

Mine has been being in Aruba, with my family, and great (albeit super hot) weather. It’s been a fabulous weekend other than my finger.

  1. The best part of my weekend last weekend was my friends going away party, and this weekend I am looking forward to spending some time with my honey.

  2. Is the water really that color – ? What a paradise. It is hot and humid here in San Diego, so enjoy your vacation…

    1. Yes, it really is. Even more so. The vibrancy is just outta control. Have heard it’s super hot back home — nothing could top the 95F temps and probably 80% humidity and 40mph headwinds here. Other than South Florida or central Texas I think :)

  3. Ouch! Hope it’s not too serious of a cut. And I hope you enjoyed some serious beach time!

  4. I’ve done that exact same thing and it hurts so bad! :( So sorry. Side note – I’m still in love with those donuts. So pretty.

    1. Glad you’re still in love with them – and that you haven’t had any knife incidents in awhile :)

  5. There’s nothing worse than a knife cut. Lucky for me (I guess) I have more of a habit of burning myself. Got quite a nasty one on Saturday. Sorry to hear about your finger. I’m glad you had a great weekend otherwise. I had a lovely day yesterday baking with a dear friend.

    1. Baking with a friend sounds about perfect. Glad you had a great day! And yes, burns and cuts are awful – sorry you had one on Sat.

  6. I am the worst! You told me about your horrible cut in our email and I didn’t even touch on it! You poor thing! I hope it’s feeling all better today. A sex on the beach definitely brightens my day, so I hope you got to enjoy one OR at least spend a decent amount of time at the beach. I wish I was there! My weekend highlights was the great photo sesh on Saturday, having my mint pie turn out wonderfully, and sneaking in a 6.3 mile run yesterday morning!!

    1. so glad you had a great photo sesh (makes up for all the ones that don’t go as planned) AND that you had a nice run. I have to run here in the morning too, well before noon…Lol…or it’s just so hot. Okay even at midnight it’s hot!

  7. Aruba sounds amazing! I would love to go there! Im so sorry to hear about your finger! I hate injuries! I cut and burn myself a lot!

  8. Oh no! I hope your finger heals quickly. I didn’t get to hit the beach, but I did find some cute shirts for date night with my husband at my local thrift store-score! Feel better soon Averie and soak up the sun for me :)

  9. Oh man…I am so sorry to hear about your finger! I hope it heals quickly! The beach always makes everything better (as least in my book!) Have fun on vacation!! :)

  10. I’m sorry about your finger! My mother-in-law did that to her finger last week cutting bread. It’s not fun. i hope it gets better soon! That beach looks gorgeous!

  11. Just read the above comment…my boys started last Wednesday! It IS early to start!

    I am so sorry about your finger! I’m glad you are all right, but I know that hurts! Did the same thing when I was cutting a sourdough sandwich roll with a large (new) serrated bread knife and ended up in the emergency room where they glued it shut. The thing was, that was when my boys were babies and they were in pjs when it happened and I had to scoop them up, one handed, buckle them in their car seats and make it to the docs on my own. THAT was the hardest part! ;-)

  12. hope you’re ok. Best part of weekend was hanging out with the kids. School starts tomorrow and it’s sad how time flies.. Honest
