Stuff I love – July

Uncategorized

July 2, 2012

John and I love nothing more than unwinding  in front of the TV after a long day watching something funny and eating a nice dinner. Lately we’ve been catching a couple of episodes of Modern Family on Blu Ray almost nightly. Every. Single. Episode. is hilarious!! If you haven’t seen Modern Family, it’s a faux documentary type show (sort of like the office or Parks and Rec) about a blended “modern” family. I think what I like most about the show is how positive it is. It’s funny and smart without being trashy or mean spirited. And with a billion channels with things like Gypsy weddings (guilty pleasure) and Jersey Shore, it’s nice that there are still shows that I could watch with my own parents without it feeling really awkward or embarrassed by my generation…(you know what I’m talking about).

So this month I have decided to give away a copy of Season One on Blu Ray! It’s that time of year when TV shows are all on their hiatus and there isn’t much to watch. It’s also been CRAZY hot outside lately and when the temps are in the triple digits there isn’t much better than chilling inside with the AC full blast  with a DVD and a beer. All you have to do to enter to win is leave a comment on this post with your favorite way to beat the heat! I will chose a winner via random.org on Tuesday night and announce on Wednesday.

    Love Modern Family! But, I have to admit that I’ve only seen one or two episodes. We watched one episode on our flight to our honeymoon and I remember asking Ben why we don’t watch more of this show! We’re kind of like you guys. We love watching a good show or movie at the end of the day… although yesterday I beat the heat by sitting with a friend at Starbucks for 2.5 hrs! And I have to admit that when we left, I decided to go through the drive thru and order a passion tea lemonade 🙂 I think I’m a little addicted!

    Jordan and I have yet to watch much Modern Family, but I’ve heard amazing things about it!
    My favorite ways to beat the heat are: officially making the switch from regular coffee to iced coffee for the summer, and sitting on our front porch at night! (you know, after the sun goes down and it’s not ridiculously hot.) We’re also fans of having big pitchers of iced green tea in the fridge for leisurely sipping 😉

    Happy July!

    I love Modern Family too. It is one of the only shows I actually try and watch. Iblike to unwind and beat the heat by reading a good book and/or by hitting the pool.

    ah! i’ve been wanting to start watching Modern Family from the beginning. I’ve seen a few episodes here and there and I love it. I like to beat the heat by jumping in my pool. …OH WAIT. I don’t have one. HA. Iced green tea and naps. 🙂
