5 Things I’d Tell You Over Coffee This June ’26

It’s the first weekend of the month, so I‘m linking up with Coco and Deborah for the Ultimate Coffee Date.

What is the Ultimate Coffee Date? Imagine we are having coffee together… this post is what I would tell you. So grab a cup, “listen” and then tell me what is going on with you in the comments, please!

If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that summer has arrived so it may be time to put the coffee on ice! I waited way too long to go out for my run today, but I loved stopping to see so many people enjoying summer. I usually don’t drink iced coffee even in brutal summer weather – especially not in the morning. How about you?

How cool is this view?

If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I’ve been enjoying my swimming lessons. Kathy, my instructor is awesome and the lessons are at the Aqua building. Yesterday, we swam outside and the view was pretty epic. I’ve also been practicing outside at my gym. I’m not going to lie, I’m proud of myself for putting in the effort. And, no, I’m not doing a triathlon. I’m just trying to do more cross training.

If we were having coffee… I’d ask what you’re reading and watching and what your favorite books, movies and shows have been lately. We’re still watching Veronica Mars on Netflix. I have to say the recent season (from 2019) is a bit too violent and confusing for me. I finally read Project Hail Mary (listed on Audible actually) and a few romance novels this month. We read Summer Romance by Annabel Monaghan for book club and then I read a few Abby Jiminez books. All were entertaining and fun. I read a few thrillers, too.

If we were having coffee…I’d gab your ear off about the Sweets & Snacks Expo. It definitely had some Vegas flair (big, kind of flashy, lots of slot machine games and a few Elvis’) and they even had a wedding at the end of Day 2. I skipped that! I got a TON of goodies and started sharing and will continue sharing. I got some great press boxes, too! So much fun to check everything out. If you missed it, check it out here and you can see my Instagram reel and story highlights under Swts & Snks ’26.

If we were having coffee… I’d ask if you have anything fun planned for the summer or fall. I have a girl’s birthday weekend in Oregon this month then… nothing planned until the NYC Marathon. The Husband has a long trip in August so I may try to do something then. We’re talking about a trip for our anniversary (24th in November) and Morocco seems to be rising to the top. Any other ideas or Morocco itineraries to share?

If we were having coffee… I’d ask “what’s happening by you?” Please tell me in the comments!
