Weekly Roundup

Hello red and cream tiles, green cabinets, pink walls, black accents, greenery, and wood table. Nice to meet you!

A friend of ours has been making us delicious meals and my favorites all come out of this cookbook.

Have you listened to the podcast Smartless? Hosts Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett interview a bunch of really cool people and also poke fun at one another. The comedians are hilarious already, but toss in some friendly teasing, and I’m cracking up.

While I’m not a big snacker, my sister gave me a bag of these tasty vegan family-made treats and I’m hooked.

This sweater has my name written all over it. I feel like wearing it would fulfill my lifelong desire to be a retro bank teller. Tie a kerchief around my neck, pin a cute name tag to the sweater, give me one of those coiled key chains that I wear above the elbow, and let me count bills for hours. I’ll be set.

Have you ever bought antiques at auction? My pal Natasha got me hooked on online auctions years ago, and she just spilled the beans on her trade secrets for scoring deals on antiques here.

Ross and I have been doing picnic-style meals lately when we meet friends in the park for a distanced outdoor meals. We end up bringing tote bags full of clanking silverware, cups, and food that spills all over itself. It can get messy, so we decided to upgrade by getting a picnic backpack which comes with plates and cutlery, all strapped into compartments! I snagged mine second-hand on Facebook Marketplace, so look around locally, too!

Here’s my monthly playlist for your listening enjoyment:

My cafe curtain rods and antique curtain clips arrived, so I’m hunting for just the right fabric to hang in the kitchen windows. This is probably what I’ll be doing all weekend, actually. Hope you have a good one, too!
