Happy Friday 9/16/22

Happy Friday! How was your week? It was basically a paint-a-thon around here - our house painter working on the exterior of the Farmhouse and Garrett and I painting the dining room pink. Nothing quite like the power of paint to transform the feel of a home! Here’s a peek at the exterior progress…

I’ll share more on the paint after our painter wraps up in a week or so (he still has 3 sides to go!), but the color is SW Dover White with Laurel Woods, a dark green, on the windows and I love it so. Hope you have a lovely weekend!

Here are some fun links from this week…

Should kids eat what you serve or only what they want? Where do you stand on this hot debate?

Speaking of feeding kids…I’m brushing up on how to perfectly scramble eggs for a quick week day breakfast. We use stainless or cast iron pans instead of nonstick and if you’re new to cast iron this pan is a great place to start and it’s on sale!

An art-filled Georgian farmhouse.

This beautiful 2-minute film brought tears to my eyes…the swimmer.

The question of all questions after the craziness of the past two years.

A fall trend I’m totally loving (here, here and here). Would you wear a shacket?

The thing I miss the most about living in a city is the restaurants!  The 50 best new restaurants.

The most beautiful chateau hotel causing my wanderlust to kick into high gear.

And if you are in need of a good (or just fun) read, I shared 11 of my favorites books from the summer here.

Hope you have a good one!
