Happy Weekend

This weekend is my step-father’s 70^th birthday. My mom, in her typical party planning fashion, has 50 of his friends and family coming to their house in the suburbs to celebrate. Hopefully the weather gods will be on our side and the predicted thunderstorm will find its way elsewhere.

Here are some things that caught my eye this week:

Stuff that’s full of inspiration: This online magazine is always chocked full of ideas to steal.

Stuff to read: I read an excerpt of this book in the New Yorker and can’t wait to get my hands on the full story. In the meantime, this one is pretty great too.

Stuff to make you want to get outside: This video has me day dreaming of outdoor adventure – and missing my paddleboard!

Stuff for your hands: I love this ring and when it starts to feel like fall, this is going on my nails
