// How tasty do these beef empanadas look? I made empanadas once for a Superbowl party a couple years ago. They were a bit labor intensive, but they were very yummy.
// The highs were above 50 degrees all week, so I’d like to thank the weather for finally cooperating. *pats on the back*
// Here are a few tips for working more efficiently. I’m all for deleting emails that I don’t need or filing them away (I’ve got folders on folders). I’m always striving for inbox zero!
// I liked these tips on getting the most out of your Sephora experience. I only recently started taking advantage of samples and such and it’s so great to be able to test something before you buy it.
// Carrie of Wish Wish Wish posted a new spring wallpaper yesterday and it is lovely.
// I wish these emojis were real because I’d get so much use out of them. In other non-news, I haven’t updated my iPhone yet so I’m still seeing aliens instead of the new emojis (lolz).
// One of my friends is visiting this weekend and I’m looking forward to catching up her.
// New arrivals at Rifle Paper Co. (yassssss) and they’re 10% off.

![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]

Some of the emojies are grouped together. so you gotta do a long press on an emoji. Like the dance emoji, it would bring out different shades which you select
Lovely links. I love empanadas.

I finally updated my phone so now I can see the new emojis! Thank you :)
I need to read that article about working more effectively…and I desperately need to clean up my inbox!

I get so overwhelmed when emails pile up!
yes…those empanadas! so delicious. I always say I want to try to make them but end up going somewhere where I can just purchase. So lame. haha
And those emojis are so funny! So true…
