Happy Friday! 5/22/26
Happy Friday! Any exciting plans for the long weekend? Garrett’s sister flew in from New York and we’re excited to spend some family time together - dinners in the Porch House garden, hiking, going to the farmers market, and generally enjoying the weather. Wishing you a lovely long weekend ahead.
Lilacs from the Farmhouse
A few things that caught my eye this week:
Why saying hello to strangers can be good for you.
My sister lent me these cute (and comfy!) sneakers and I’ve gotten so many compliments on them. Hoping I get to keep them for a good long while ;)
What style of garden suits you? I got naturalistic and they got me soooo right: “You prefer objects with a patina to those shiny and new; yes, you purchase some of your jeans predistressed, but no one can tell.” ;)
Speaking of patina, last week we sealed our honed marble countertops and they look so good! Here’s the sealer we use and how we care for marble countertops in a bathroom.
How lovely is this Notting Hill flat?!
Just ordered this one-piece swimsuit for the season ahead (and it’s 50% off right now).
How to get the 90s butter mom look (and what exactly a 90s butter mom is). I’m so here for this!
“You don’t find your calling. It’s finds you.”
Have you read this book yet? I was looking for something light and it delivered!
Have a good one!
