Sotheby's Hits the Road

Sotheby's posted this photograph of the 1956 Ferrari on Instagram that had my heart thumping. The car, is one of many that was presented at the annual classic car auction event in the coastal towns of Monterey and Pebble Beach this past weekend. This year, a 1961 Ferrari California Spider (not to be confused with the photograph above), made news as it was estimated at as much of $18 million. It is only 37 of its kind. The collection, totally over 390 cars included a car that was built for Pope John Paul II ( a 2005 Ferrari Enzo selling for $6.1 million). The auction wrapped up on Saturday, however you can view all lots from the auction, here.

The Last Mile

The next few days are a serious push as I work to get finals off loaded and the intensity of work at a decent simmer. All that keeps me going is the thought of swimming in the ocean and spending time with friends and family doing all of those easy breezy summer activities.  

Suit Up

I'm on the hunt for last minute swimwear before I jaunt home. I love Candice Lake's one-piece by the Australian brand Ephemera.

Blue Bottle's NOLA Iced Coffee

I'm addicted to Blue Bottle's New Orleans Iced Coffee. Inside the old school-style carton is their unique blend of chicory-infused coffee with just the right amount of Clover whole milk and cane sugar. Their blend isn't mainstream just yet, as it's only sold in select Whole Foods and independent grocers, but once you try it, you're golden.
