Happy 4th of July! Hope you are like me and ready to enjoy a long weekend. Thanks for stopping by to check out my Five on Friday post. Let's go ~
1. Jurassic World Rebirth
If you are looking to avoid the heat this weekend, take a break in a theater and watch the newly released Jurassic World movie! Here's the summary ~
Five years after the events of Jurassic World Dominion, the planet's ecology has proven largely inhospitable to dinosaurs. Those remaining exist in isolated equatorial environments with climates resembling the one in which they once thrived. The three most colossal creatures within that tropical biosphere hold the key to a drug that will bring miraculous life-saving benefits to humankind.
2. The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau
Kristin Harmel has a new book out and it sounds pretty intriguing to me! This one is going on my TBR list. Here's the summary ~
Colette Marceau has been stealing jewels for nearly as long as she can remember, following the centuries-old code of honor instilled in her by her mother, Annabel: take only from the cruel and unkind, and give to those in need. Never was their family tradition more important than seven decades earlier, during the Second World War, when Annabel and Colette worked side by side in Paris to fund the French Resistance.
But one night in 1942, it all went wrong. Annabel was arrested by the Germans, and Colette’s four-year-old sister, Liliane, disappeared in the chaos of the raid, along with an exquisite diamond bracelet sewn into the hem of her nightgown for safekeeping. Soon after, Annabel was executed, and Liliane’s body was found floating in the Seine—but the bracelet was nowhere to be found.
Seventy years later, Colette—who has “redistributed” $30 million in jewels over the decades to fund many worthy organizations—has done her best to put her tragic past behind her, but her life begins to unravel when the long-missing bracelet suddenly turns up in a museum exhibit in Boston. If Colette can discover where it has been all this time—and who owns it now—she may finally learn the truth about what happened to her sister. But she isn’t the only one for whom the bracelet holds answers, and when someone from her childhood lays claim to the diamonds, she’s forced to confront the ghosts of her past as never before. Against all odds, there may still be a chance to bring a murderer to justice—but first, Colette will have to summon the courage to open her own battered heart.
I picked up a new dress from Amazon for the holiday and love it! The quality is remarkably good (it's even lined). It's supposed to be a hot one here, so the sleeveless design will definitely be welcomed. It's machine washable so caring for this beauty will be a breeze too.
4. Dot's Buffalo Seasoned Pretzel Twists
We’re big fans of Dot’s Pretzels, and they’ve just introduced a new flavor to their lineup: Dot’s Buffalo Seasoned Pretzel Twists! These crunchy twists are baked with a bold, zesty blend of spices that buffalo lovers won’t want to miss. Keep an eye out—they’re expected to hit store shelves nationwide this July.
5. Me Cleaning Out My Closet...
Wishing you a safe and fun weekend! We’re heading to a friend’s house Friday night to watch fireworks and spending Saturday with some other friends. Fingers crossed the heat isn’t too unbearable! See you next week.
