Happy Friday 7/26/24

Happy Friday! How was your week? We celebrated Daphne’s birthday this week (how is she 7?!) with a family dinner and a grocery store cake topped with mermaids. I adore homemade cakes, but sometimes uncomplicated and easy really is just fine ;) Wishing you a lovely weekend.

Some fun links from the week…

Love all the wood inside this century-old LA craftsman!

Speaking of cake (weren’t we…?), this almond raspberry cake by Tessa Huff is on my list!

Short naps have major benefits for your mind. I’m a frequent napper (I swear just 25 minutes makes my evenings so much better!) and my kids nag me about it, but it turns out that mama knows best ;)

As a newer baseball cap wearer, I found myself googling how to wash them this week. Turns out it’s easy and despite what Garrett says, the dishwasher isn’t the best option.

We wrapped up our latest tile project at the Poplar Cottage and I’m smitten!

One of my favorite Instagram follows. How cute are they?!

Took the whole family to the new Twisters movie last weekend and it was SO fun! Here’s the trailer.

An oldie but a goodie: this Northern California cabin is such a stunner, especially the kitchen! Also, what a good reminder that awkward exteriors can be awesome on the inside.

I’m in a bit of a book rut at the moment. Any recommendations?

Hope you have a good one!
