We had a perfect, celebration-filled weekend in Davidson and Charlotte. Complete set of photos here!
We watched these two get married. Warmest congratulations, Jonathan and Keara!
We got all dressed up.
We took the Pizookie challenge.
And we welcomed home our beloved world traveler!
Snax with a piping hot cup of darjeeling tea, imported straight from the region itself:
What I’ve Done. Just reading the list of things Grace did these past six months is enough to make one’s head spin. Proud of you, muppet, but mostly I’m just really, really glad that you’re home. (Como Say What?)
Memories of Chekhov. An excerpt from a new book of people’s opinions and stories about the great Anton Chekhov. Delightful. (New York Review of Books)
The Lake House, Part 2. Does this look like the absolute perfect vacation or what? I’m enamored. (Sweet Fine Day)
Teal Blue Envelope Calligraphy. Must learn how to write like this. (Paper Tastebuds)
An Epistolary Confession. I haven’t written many letters lately, and this thoughtful piece by Jenni Simmons on the Curator made me want to revive my practice of regular letter writing. (The Curator)
No-Bake Chocolate Cake. I haven’t actually made this yet, but it sounds perfect–especially since our temperamental old oven makes baking a terrifying and often tragic adventure. (Mint)
The Unconditional Love of Dogs. This is why I think keeping pets, especially dogs, matters to humanity. (Doggerel)
Hover Cat. I feel that this GIF sums up the personality of most cats and dogs. (Animals Being Di*ks)
