I have truly fallen head over heels for mahjong. There’s just something about gathering around a table, the satisfying clack of the tiles, the perfect mix of strategy and luck, and the joy of playing with friends. It’s more than just a game... it’s connection, tradition, and a little bit of magic. One of my favorite things in life is sharing hobbies with friends... whether it’s baking sourdough, needlepointing, or now, mahjong. Last week, I hosted a mahjong 101 class for my neighbors and friends who had shown interest in learning how to play. My mom even came up from Tampa for it! @msmahj_nj came over and showed everyone the ropes!! I got such a thrill seeing my friends catch on. By the end of the night, everyone totally got it and we all played a full game. I got four texts that night sharing that they couldn’t fall asleep because they were buzzing with excitement. (That’s always how I feel after I play too!)The more people who play, the more we can play… so consider this your sign to learn!! Do you play? Or is there a hobby you’ve fallen in love with lately?
Wearing my favorite Quince finds… this washable silk slip dress and organic cotton fisherman sweater are the perfect mix of luxe and effortless. ✨ Love that Quince is all about quality, affordability, and sustainability! Premium pieces that last, at prices that make sense. @onequince #quincepartner

This is the best my hair has ever been. I do not have Good Hair™️. In fact, for as long as I can remember I’ve been battling my hair in one way or another. As a baby, I was pretty bald. Then I had curly hair and my mom cut bangs (!!!). In elementary school I had a Karen haircut. At the end of middle school I fried my hair when I discovered The Chi and would wake up before 6am to blow dry and straighten my hair. My hair is going grey. My hair doesn’t like any moisture in the air and is unpredictable.
But now at 35, I’m kind of experiencing my best hair yet due to this regimen which I’ve been tweaking and perfecting for the past couple of years. I say all this to acknowledge that I’m never going to be a hair model, but this is REALLY GOOD for me and I’m happy with it.
Comment HAIR and I’ll share the products I’m using!

I visited Alaska a few years ago with my parents and it's definitely been one of my favorite family trips we've taken! Alaska is just so breathtaking!

Gosh so scenic! That bakery looks fab!
Love these pictures! Who takes them when you all have group shots? Do you have a professional photographer come on vacation with you like KJP does, I may have to invest in one for my next trip. Looks magical!
We did this trip as 100% fun so no photographers… but Thomas is an excellent photographer (he works for Julia's blog!) so we had great photos the whole trip!
Love all of your pictures! Gorgeous backdrop.
