Happy Valentine’s Day and…. HAPPY BIRTHDAY RORY! We’re having a little family birthday party for him at our house with pizza and cake. I can’t believe he’s a whole year old 😭. I’ll share more in a different post ✨

Had to pop into J. Crew to try on some of their new arrivals– loving all the reds!
Here’s what has been on my radar this week:
ONE // Turkish Pasta
I saw this Turkish pasta floating around TikTok and I had to make it. It’s so easy and it was absolutely delicious. The entire family loved it– Jack and Rory included. I actually thought it tasted better the next day for leftovers too, so it’s a good option if you want to make it for dinner and have lunch done for the next day. After seeing another video review of it, I did switch to regular cow’s milk yogurt… my only note!
TWO // Hill House New Arrivals
Loving the girly new arrivals at Hill House! It was hard to narrow down my favorites. If I had to make a short list though: Ribbon Charlotte Nap Dress, Kimmy Nap Dress, and Ophelia Dress. I want to try the Carolina Shirt Dress though– I have really loved HHH’s shirtdresses in the past.
THREE // Wedding Cake Latte
Wedding cake is one of my most favorite desserts in the world. (I think the increasing trend to not do proper cakes at weddings is a travesty 😅!) I will be making this wedding cake latte ASAP.
FOUR // Cherry Picnic Collection
Oso and Me, one of my go-to lines for baby and children’s clothing, just launched a cherry picnic collection. I am obsessed with the cherry stripe shorts for the boys. The blue and red are such a good combination and if you have a girl, the dresses are darling. You can use the code CARLY15 for 15% off!
FIVE // Feeling Bored? Maybe You Need an Adult Field Trip
I think I need more adult field trips in my life! Love this suggestion to go on an adult field trip… I love bringing the boys places, but I really wouldn’t think about doing this for myself, outside of traveling. But why not?!
Happy Valentine’s Day and happy birthday to Rory!!
