Happy Friday 9/2/22

Happy Friday and happy Labor Day weekend! Any exciting plans? We’re hosting 19 houseguests at the farmhouse this weekend for our local fair, parade, and rodeo. It’s become quite the annual tradition with bbq’s, picnics, and scary movie nights and it’s my favorite weekend all year long :) Hope you have a fun one!

A few fun links from the week..

A case for downsizing…royal style. Price William and Kate Middleton’s new home has 4 bedrooms and no live-in help. (architectural digest)

The TV show that I’ve been waiting for all summer is finally here!

We’re also celebrating my nephew’s birthday this weekend and I’m making him this Reeses cake by popular demand.

Fall is allllmost here and I’m excited to wear jeans again! My favorite pair is on sale right now! (affiliate)

Rethinking everything I thought I knew about Sylvie (and dogs in general).

What it’s like to parent in Denmark.

A historic English countryside cottage gets a contemporary extension. What do you think?

Loving this book - it’s full of love, old houses, and detailed prose about food and flavors. My kind of story :) Highly recommend the audio version! (amazon affiliate, indiebound)

A request…every Labor Day weekend we do a scary movie night - an unusual tradition for someone who can rarely make it through an entire scary movie, but who am I to mess with tradition? Anywho, have you watched any good scary movies lately?

PSA Rejuvenation is up to 75% off this weekend including our kitchen sconces, classic kitchen pendants, kitchen drawer pulls, kitchen dishwasher pull, bedroom sconces, and Poplar kitchen scones. I haven’t seen many of these on sale in forever so it’s a great time to buy if you’re in the market! (affiliates)

Hope you have a lovely long weekend!
