Happy Friday 1/12/24

Happy Friday! Any exciting weekend plans? With temps forecasted in the negative digits 😳😱😩 we’re planning to cozy up, bake warm treats, and catch up on movies and games. They say there’s no such thing as bad weather, only bad gear. But below zero makes me think otherwise. Stay warm out there!

Some fun links from the week…

Wowza, THIS rented flat in Chelsea. It’s full of antiques and art and is basically a love letter to an American couple’s time in Europe. Can I live here next?!

21 of the best cheap places to travel to this year.

This week Michael Stars has vacation sun dresses on crazy sale (thanks for the heads up, sis!). I picked up this linen number and this basic black tank (they make the BEST tanks!). (affiliate)

What a shack on the beach costs in Hawaii. But really who needs interior square footage when you live on the beach?!

The “wrong shoe theory” and more fashion trends for 2024.

This week we shared the long-term numbers on our downsizing move.

Three ways to live more fully according to Arthur Brooks. “Instead of seeking a new life, go deeper into the one you have.”

Farrow and Ball paint colors in real homes. Bookmarking this post for the next time I’m at the paint store making the rash decision to test out a new color without a sample first (because we all know it will happen again…).

This book had me staying up past bedtime all week! (amazon affiliate, Indiebound)

And another riddle from our second-grader’s puzzle book because so many folks liked the last one: What is it you will break every time you name it?

Have a good one!
