Weekend Notes

Popping in on this lovely long weekend with just a handful of reads I enjoyed over the past week. Hope you’ll be reading them poolside, sprawled out in a hammock, or at least on your comfiest couch (c’mon, it’s the weekend!) We’ve had a fun one so far: sort-of tailgating yesterday (or as my friend said, “glam-gating“), making a cozy dinner at home and watching this movie, lots of reading and laying about. Hoping that the next two days are more of the same, though I’m also getting ready for one of our first holiday photo shoots next week, so my oven will be churning out loads and loads of Christmas cookies tomorrow (not weird at all.) Hope you’re all having a wonderful weekend so far, and enjoy my favorite links from around the web!
