What a fun week here! It’s been scorching hot and instead of being miserable about it, I’ve been trying to make mental notes about how it feels so I can refer back to this feeling in February when I’m miserably cold. (Feel free to check in with me then to see how it’s going 🤪.)
Here’s what has been on my radar this week:
ONE // 15 Surprising Things About Parenting in Costa Rica
My favorite series from Cup of Jo is back!!! I have always loved reading this series about parenting around the world and was thrilled to see it pop up in my Feedly subscription box. I typically scroll through blogs pretty quickly in the morning, but I saved this one in a new tab to come back and read it with my coffee!
TWO // Bauble Stockings x For Pete’s Sake Pottery
A great early Christmas collaboration dropped this week. Bauble Stockings is a fantastic company that sells mini needlepoint stockings (you have to read the cool tradition behind the brand) made by single mothers in Haiti I’ve also been a huge fan of For Pete’s Sake Pottery and was thrilled to see she is a guest artist this year. Her designs are darling!!
THREE // Blue Knit Swing Dress
Ummmm do I need this dress or do I need this dress? I love cute “everyday” dresses that aren’t boring and this one seems like such a great option. It’s a t-shirt dress with a twist! Loving the side panels.
FOUR // Rosé Pasta
The next time I’m in charge of dinner, I’m 100% making this. I saw it on TikTok (surprise, surprise) and it looks absolutely divine. I actually feel like I need to make this and then invite people over…. seems like the perfect dinner party dish!
FIVE // Videos Killed the Influencer
If you need a good pick-me-up laugh, I thought this TikTok was hilarious! A spoof on “Video Killed the Radio Star,” but about how video killed the influencer. So creative and well done– and then I had the song stuck in my head for the rest of the day!!
That pasta looks soooo good! So many fun links today!
