one. eating dinner outside. we just got the deck furniture out this weekend and had nice weather too. we celebrated nathaniel’s birthday on saturday with burgers outside and then had a favorite orzo salad on sunday night. all outside, hurrah! it feels like my house just grows when the outside becomes an option! anders is absolutely loving it too.
two. bitsy’s brain food smart crackers. parker loves the cheddar chia veggie ones! picking boxes up every single time i’m at target. (i prefer them to their cookies.)
three. that green plant i just picked up at my grocery store the other day. anyone know what it is and how i can not kill it?
four. climbing into bed next to anders every night. he just never sits still! sleeping next to him is like heaven to me!
five. meyer lemons in my water. a little sweeter than other lemons? refreshing.
six. these sneakers.
seven. that i’m staying on top of the laundry in my house (AT THE MOMENT). it will change in a few days, no doubt, but for the meantime i’m reveling in it.
eight. duke ellington spotify station.
nine. i have the oldest eyeshadows ever, so i just got this and the colors are beautiful.
ten. watching movies this weekend. we watched the big short (which convinced me that the whole housing collapse was even more convoluted and complicated and crooked (alliteration) than i was even aware of.) and mockingjay part 2. recommend both!
The Big Short was so good! So enlightening!
Yes! We watched Mockingjay Part 2 last weekend. It was so good!! So many twists and turns, and the ending was not at all what I was expecting.
Agreed, such an unusually sweet ending for such a crazy, violent series, right?!
Concussion & Spotlight were both very good if you're looking for more movies to add to your watch list!
oh when the babies are still!! my fav, always. sleepy cuddles. and nursing, even! before they get all big and wiggly while nursing, it's such a nice break from constantly moving. also, congrats on the laundry!! any kind of laundry success is totally a huge achievement, even if you can't make it permanent. 🙂
Have you watched the documentary Inside Job? Several years ago my economics professor showed it in class and I was RIVETED. I recently re-watched it with my husband and was equally engaged (+ enraged). It does a good job of trying to explain the explainable. The Big Short was enthralling, too.
I kept yelling at the TV during The Big Short! And asking my husband if I could possibly be understanding what they were saying correctly. SO CRAZY – especially at the end when they shared it's basically starting again.
