happy weekend from Cape Cod! I am home with my parents and it is just the best. So nice to be home and so good to spend some time with my family. We’ve mostly just been staying and cooking, going to the beach, and lounging around reading – three of my most favorite activities. I had a work project on Thursday night with Puritan Cape Cod (a popular department store here) and Eileen Fisher. There was a panel discussion and fashion show (I was on the panel) and it was really fun because my mom and dad came and also rounded up a bunch of their friends to come and cheer me on! Aren’t parents just the best? Anyway, it’s great to be here… I head home tomorrow afternoon!
