On My Radar

This past week has been a whirlwind… between a weekend with Victoria in Vermont to a nice little trip to New Orleans with Garrett. I’m exhausted, but definitely the happiest! Although, I’m for sure looking forward to a low-key couple of days this weekend.

More from me on this amazing New Orleans trip (spoiler alert: we have never eaten better), but for now… here’s what is on my radar:

ONE // Grove Street Press

I met the girls behind Grove Street Press a couple of years ago when they visited NYC, but I was so looking forward to getting to see their actual store while in New Orleans. It did not disappoint. If you’re in town, you must stop by! I picked up more greeting cards than I really need, a pennant for my mom, a pennant for myself (did you know that I was born in Georgia?!), and the cutest little notebooks that you ever did see.

TWO // Tuckernuck’s Store Opening

Speaking of cute stores, Tuckernuck just opened their first brick and mortar store in Georgetown this week. A huge congratulations to them! Wish I could be there… if you’re in DC, please swing by so I can live vicariously through you!!

THREE // A New Quarterly Magazine for Girls 5-10

I was such a Highlights kid growing up; I also loved the American Girl Magazine. Even still, I so wish something like Kazoo had been around when I was a kid. It sounds like such a fun magazine!! I know I would have loved it.

FOUR // A Touching Report Card

This was probably the best thing I saw on the internet this week. A student with autism failed his exams, but his teacher wrote the sweetest report card that graded him on what really mattered. “These tests only measure a little bit about you and your abilities.” It’s a good reminder for everyone.

FIVE // Jackie Official Trailor

Oh. My. God. I’m not sure that I’m ready for this movie– it looks like it’s going to be award-winning amazing. Natalie Portman already shines in just the trailer!

Anything great to add to the list? Is anyone else going to be laying low this weekend?
