Our bathroom is kinda tiny. As much as I would like a giant shelf devoted to make-up and lotions, it does make life a lot less cluttered, and a lot more simple, when we share things. Here are a couple beauty products we both like: some natural black soap, and skin cream that was an especially big help during our spring yardwork phase!

wild
I just started reading the book Wild. I cried through most of the first part there, and I go through periods where she frustrates me, but I’m finding it fascinating. Its always neat to hear the opposite-of-expert guide. Of someone who just jumped into something with really no clue. Because I feel like I am constantly in that stage, and its nice to remember that everyone is.
And despite the gross parts about her feet, it still makes me really want to go hiking.
What books are you reading?
things that caught my eye/ nineteen
1. A light, airy scarf to make. 2. Cornbread hot dog buns, and why isn’t that already a thing. 3. I could have an entire closet devoted to floral patterned shoes. 4. Need this arrangement on our front porch. 5. Love this board full of weddings from yesteryear.
We’re planting a pumpkin patch this weekend! Hope your weekend is full of sunshine!

Some things I found this week:

- Look at the gorgeous detail on this dress.
This week was a pretty good one. We had a bread and cheese dinner, I gave my first sewing lesson, we tidied and refreshed the yard a little, and spent a lovely evening with some friends. Let’s continue this good trend into the weekend, shall we?
Here is a picture of the baby garden. This was little over a month ago, pre-growth spurt, back when the tomatoes still fit in their cages.

things that caught my eye/ seventeen
Some things I found this week:
- Funny animal cakes.
- I’ve been running in the sticky hot weather, and might need some more headbands to keep the hair from plastering itself to my face. Cute for non-running too.
- Peach sorbet. Really into peaches right now.
- These phone cases are real pretty.
- Do I need a watercolored painted summer scarf?
I can’t really believe that we will be married a whole year on Sunday. We are gonna spend the weekend doing everything we like to do together. Y’all have a good one! And here’s a picture of a tiny strawberry we grew with love, sunshine, and water.
things that caught my eye/ sixteen
Some things I found this week:
- This no flour seed and oatmeal bread is supposed to make good toast.
- Uber cute little guitar case. Maybe I could make one…?
- Pretty flowers and painted rocks.
- I’ve got a crush on summer hats too.
- Avocado summer rolls for when it gets too hot to eat.
We have been getting about 8 peas a day from our little patch. We have a million green tomatoes, so hopefully we will have a million ripe tomatoes soon. I’m also starting sewing on a new shirt. I’m trying a new kind of fabric, so cross your fingers that the sewing machine likes it.
