Happy Friday 9/27/24

Happy Friday! Any exciting plans this weekend? I’m taking Daphne for her first ever professional haircut (shampoo bowl and all!) and we’re both way too excited about it! I’ve been cutting the kids’ hair mostly myself since they were born, but last year’s school pictures made me realize a professional was needed from time-to-time ;) Wishing you a lovely weekend.

A recent meal at Nana’s (aka the Porch House)

Some links from the week…

Are we expecting too much from our homes? “Comfort, warmth, somewhere to keep our stuff - must they make us feel rooted, too? Or can we learn to be at peace with hiraeth? And might it, even, be a blessing?”

A Cape Cod beach shack where charm takes priority over air conditioning.

8 easy fall soup recipes that are comforting and delicious. Number 8 will be in my Instant Pot this week! ps I am an appliance minimalist but the Instant Pot really is worth all the hype. We have this one and I love it so.

This 70-year-old bride has the prettiest hair! #goals

Hoping to get a little downtime this weekend to watch this show (I enjoyed the book!) and try this face mask, which is, according to a friend, the very best. I’ll report back!

I’m here for these Fall paint color trends.

Lighthouse parents have more confident kids. “Sometimes, the best thing a parent can do is nothing at all.”

Where are the most expensive towns in the US (population 10,000-50,000)? I can’t quite believe that our small town made the list at number 8!

Listened to this witty, transformative, beautiful novel by Alison Espach this week and loved it. Highly recommend!

Have a good one!
