I am heading somewhere sunny this weekend and wanted to share of few of my favorite finds that I’m packing! A lot of these are every day staples in my closet.

I usually have leftover grilled chicken or fish in the fridge and am always looking for some type of sauce forĀ topping to make these boring proteins pop. This sauce is one of them.
