Happy Friday! 8/7/26

Happy Friday! How are you? The wildfire smoke rolled into Washington this week, so we’ve mostly been tucked inside with the windows closed, trying to keep the kids busy and ignoring the renovations on our list (who needs to add construction dust to smoky air?!). Goodness, stay safe out there!

Wishing you a lovely (and hopefully smoke free) weekend!

happened upon this photo of Daphne in the Farmhouse garden at 4 (she just turned 9!)

A few things that caught my eye this week:

This is the best before and after I’ve seen in a long time. 👏👏👏

“All this staring at our faces is messing with our heads.”

We have gifted zucchinis coming out of our ears right now and I love it. Garrett’s been sautéing them but these weekend muffins are definitely happening.

Doesn’t this home make you want to sell everything and move to England (shown above)?!

Love how this brightens up my face (in color Beverly Hills).

This actor-turned-pie-maker is putting this no-stoplight town on the map. Feels like a Hallmark movie in the making!

Looking for some travel-friendly pants for our walking trip in England this Fall and a friend recommended these while they’re on sale. Ordered these to try, too.

This pied-à-terre in Notting Hill is so chic and thoughtfully laid out! Oh to use the phrase ‘pied-à-terre’ in one’s life ;)

Currently listening to this really good read after loving the author’s first book. Highly recommend!

Have a good one!
