Happy Friday 6/13/25
Happy Friday! Any exciting weekend plans? Today’s the last day of school around here and we’re celebrating an almost-teenage birthday and I’m wishing I could just put the breaks on time for a hot sec. Whoever said the days are long but the years are short really nailed it on the head. But since I can’t stop time, I will be having seconds on cake and enjoying my almost-teenage boy and his friends (turns out, almost-teenage is the funnest, sweetest age!). Wishing you a lovely weekend!

Some links from the week…
I’ve been loving every pic of Oho Interior’s Moody Sandi project. So many great details!
Want to cut through small talk? Try asking a ‘magical question’.
How a bit of awe can improve your mental health. Garrett told me he’s been looking for moments of awe lately and I vowed to do the same.
Speaking of cake (weren’t we?), I’m thinking of switching things up and making Ina’s favorite chocolate cake recipe. She adds buttermilk to the batter, and I’m intrigued.
Advice for making life more whimsical and joyful.
I’m looking to upgrade my bathroom bag for a summer road trip we have planned and I’m eyeing this inexpensive (and stylish!) one.
This week we shared demo at the Hill House and all the tools and gear we use.
Lauren Liess knows how to do a beach house! Love how creative she got in order to make room for her family of 7 in just 800sf!
Picked up this light read for the start of summer and I can’t wait to dig in. (ps loved her debut novel so much!)
Have a good one!
