All Things Loved In June
1. Gummi bears! A coworker of mine traveled to Germany earlier this month and brought back Haribo Gummi Bears for all of us to enjoy. Since then I haven't been able to get enough of them--YUM!
2. The 2009 Parade of Homes was this month and I had so much fun going to each of the sites. It was smaller-scale this year than last year (blame the economy) but I still saw a lot of great houses, took tons of pictures, and will be posting them on my blog throughout the year for you all to enjoy!
3. I tried tofu for the first time ever in June, and you know what? I loved it! I'd been wanting to try it for a while but was a little intimidated by it and had no clue how to cook it. My friend Jill, on the other hand, has some experience, so I invited myself over to her house (sorry Emily Post) for a tofu dinner. We made pasta shells stuffed with tofu and cheese and it was so good. I will definitely be having tofu again! 
4. These banded bottom tank tops from Nike. I've been running in these tops for a while now, but haven't given them the shout-out they deserve. They are great! Not only do they feature Nike's DRI-FIT technology which keeps the sweat off your body, they're nice and long and fit great--and the banding at the bottom keeps them from riding up. This banded style comes in this racerback tank, a short-sleeve shirt, and long-sleeve shirt versions. I have all three and love them!

5. And last but not least--June was the month my little blog hit 1,000 subscribers! And that just counts readers who subscribe via some sort of feed like Google Reader or Blog Lines--it doesn't count the people who just save the link in their favorites or click from a link on another site to get to mine. I am thrilled to have so many readers--thank you all so much for sharing in my life!
And for anyone else who would like to join the party, I have subscription links in my right margin. It is a rather exclusive party (and I'm pretty sure my blog loads faster for anyone who brings wine) but just click on the "Posts" subscription link and you're in! The more the merrier!

Haribo's are my FAVE!! Good list. Will be on the lookout for the banded top...could definitely use it. Congrats on hitting 1k!
that top is sweet! I am going to have to check those out! thanks for the suggestion.
As the commercial goes, kids and grown-ups love it so- the happy world of Haribo! I don't know why, but for some reason the ones from Germany taste the best.
Congrats for all your readers!
I love these posts! I'm going to have to come up with one, I always say that but today (or tomorrow) I will have to copy this! I love that you post about the homes, they are all so nice.
I LOVE Haribo gummi bears...they are the only ones I eat!! My fav candy definitely. and I too agree the ones direct from Europe taste the best!
I will ONLY eat Haribo--they are God's gift to gummi bear lovers. Glad you discovered their deliciousness! Love your other faves as well. :-)

lol -- we are all a bunch of candy whores! I was just going to say that Haribo is the best candy EVER! All of it. Any of it. MmmMmmMmm.
Haribo's are my absolute favorite candy ever. Other gummy bears just do NOT cut it!
Thanks for the comments everyone! I shouldn't be surprised by how much everyone loves the Haribo gummies. YUM!
Gummy bears sound so yummy! I haven't had them in forever. Congrats on all the readers - it just confirms how fabulous you are :)
Oh Gummis. I had a coworker bring me authentic Haribo Gummis from Germany last summer. I have some bad news - too many gummi bears cause massive headaches and cavities. Love those Nike tops, they are definitely the best. And congrats on you 1000 you popular girl, you!
Congratulations on your subscriptions! I am one of the 'favorites' folks, but I hope that still counts:0)
That tank looks fabulous - I'll really have to get one!
Thanks for the inspiration!
You've gotta try this easy salt and pepper tofu. Even my meat eating friends LOVE it and it's so, so easy.

I have never even heard of Haribo, but now must look into it.
Farewell, June! You were loved.
