Happy Friday 4/26/24

Happy Friday! How are you? We’ve been busy at work on the Poplar Cottage exterior this week and I’m kinda in love with our siding project. I mean cedar shake is incredibly labor-intensive and tedious to put up, but give me a good audio book and I enjoy the heck out of it. Can’t wait to see it finished (hopefully in May…or June). Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Some links from the week…

Emma Roberts’s ‘grown up dollhouse’ of a home in LA (shown above) is cozy and charming, and how about those dolls?! Watch the video for all the good details.

This week on the blog I shared 14 books I’ve enjoyed lately.

Found! Great kick-around/adventure shorts that are great for hiking but cute enough for lunch at the brewery (and they’re on sale!).

This built-in by Lisa Staton stopped me in my tracks this week. What a stunner.

The surprising places Gen Z is moving to this year.

I’ve been on a salad kick lately and this chicken cobb salad with avocado ranch looks like the perfect dinner.

How to die in good health. An interesting read from Garrett’s favorite podcaster.

The most incredible open-concept home on the Washington coast. Wowza!

And a trivia question for you from our 2nd-grader’s buzzle book: what sits in the corner while traveling all around the world? (sharing the answer on Instagram stories today)

Have a good one!
