This photo is from last weekend, curled up reading in the sunshine… a mood I’d like to emulate this weekend. Today I have my friend’s son’s sixth birthday; tomorrow I have yoga and another friend bringing her kid over to play with the cats. Lots of kid time! I’m deep into this book and all I want to do is be cozy and read. Whatever you are up to, I hope it’s great. xx

Aw, thank you!!!!
I’m all for the slushy coffee which I used to drink Frappes for a lot at work breaks in town at Starbucks . . Definitely make your own . Ask and try to drink bottled water if you are on the Islands like we were . Years ago on my first Cruise we stopped in St. Thomas . My first stop was sighting a coffee shop standing on its own . I asked about the coffee ice cubes and their water. Obviously not thoroughly. It’s kind of funny looking back 10 years ago, but boy at Harry Winston’s jewelry store ( very nice by the way ) thank goodness they had a bathroom. So embarrassing. I’ll do mine at home . You are right . They do get diluted . So do Starbucks so I order without ice and add my own home . Gotta be resourceful in Florida and the South . Iced Coffee is everything on a hot day! Thanks for the tip!
Couldn’t agree more — so refreshing!
Thank you Grace! I’m taking the lovely house tours this week.
Wonderful idea 🙂
I couldn’t read the Atlanta article, but I saw in the first paragraph that they listed A Confederacy of Dunces. That is my all time favorite book and so funny. It doesn’t get enough credit in my opinion. Great list!
I need to read it!
Glad you enjoyed the list.
Love these links! Can you please link the white dress you are wearing in the photo?
Thank you!

Thanks for posting the frozen coffee. I decided to make coffee ice cubes which spilled and then I cleaned my entire freezer and refrigerator which was sadly, embarrassingly way way overdue. Lol so now I can sip a frozen coffee looking at my clean shelves.
I need to do that too… my freezer situation is out of control!
