Just writing to say I love you...

Attention: This is NOT a test, I repeat do not adjust your monitors.  You're reading this correctly, I have returned from the elephant graveyard right to your blog reading device once again… Oh hey there!  How have you been the past three months?  My, oh my, I have been great.  Summertime is always better spent lounging by the pool, sipping cool drinks on patios, and spending some QT with your besties.  Sure, I still get dressed and go shopping and such, but for some reason I have never been much a good blogger during the summer months.  Honestly, I don't think I've cracked open this here laptop since I got my iPad in March! Eek!  I realllllly dropped the ball this summer.
I missed you chickens, I did indeed.  I would totally do a catch-up post, but if you even give a hoot about what I've been up to… you already follow along in my Instagram.  But because I love picture collages (and you probably do too) here is a collection of some of my favorite things I did in the past three months, for your eyeball's enjoyment.  
Imagine this in my best TV voice: Previously on Matters of Merrymaking…

Long story short (too late)... I spent two weeks in paradise, enjoyed a summer of tourist-ing in my own town, spent too many days by the pool (I'm one big freckle,) and there are many margaritas and craft beers not pictured.  
I hope to return to merrymaking more regularly here soon!
PS Thanks for all of the emails & notes telling me you missed me, be sure to leave a comment or shoot me a message to let me know how you've been.  Sweet words have not gone unnoticed and I seriously have some of the best readers ever ever! XO, Bekah

  8. I should be banned for 40 games for Alaba elbow, jokes Ibrahimovic



    Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Zlatan Ibrahimovic has joked that he should receive a 40-match ban for his alleged elbow on David Alaba during Sweden's Euro 2016 qualifier with Austria in Vienna on Monday night.
    The home players were furious when the Paris Saint-Germain striker escaped a red card for catching the versatile Bayern Munich midfielder in the face with his right arm.
    However, Zlatan, who stands 1.95 metres tall, insisted that it was an accidental collision caused by the difference in height between two players.
    “He [Alaba] goes into me twice and the third time I try to shield the ball and he [Alaba] is 1.50m or 1.60m tall and then it's clear that he's struck by my elbow," he told reporters after the game.
    "But the referee blew for a free-kick so of course he has got the situation under control.
    "But if not, I should get a 40-match ban!"

  11. Manchester United move came too soon for Zaha – Warnock




    Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock believes Wilfried Zaha's move to Manchester United came too soon and stunted his progression.
    The winger moved to Old Trafford last summer from Palace, but made just two substitute appearances in the Premier League before a loan move to Cardiff City in January.
    Zaha has now re-joined the Eagles on a similar temporary spell, pitching in with a goal and an assist in three games, and Warnock feels the increased levels of coaching now available to him are reaping rewards.
    "Wilfried has got to learn one or two things," he told reporters.
    "He's gone to a massive club early in his career where you don't get a lot of coaching and I think that's what he needs."
