No matter what you call offline hobbies, they are back and bigger than ever. I’m happy to see young and old alike take up analog hobbies like reading a print book instead of reading on their Kindle, growing a garden, taking care of houseplants, lighting a candle during downtime, or cooking at home. My Friday Faves is a fun look at what analog hobbies have been vying for free time lately.
We’ve made it through September! A month I usually love and view as the kickoff to all things Autumn, but Mother Nature had other plans. The Metro Nashville area broke records, but not in a good way. After August’s searing heatwave, we then had the second-hottest September on record and the first-ever September with no rain. Thankfully, it’s cooled down a bit, and I can actually turn on the oven without guilt. Just in time for this special day.
Hello and happy September, dear readers. I’m coming back from my lackadaisical summer blogging routine, refreshed and ready for all the busyness of fourth-quarter blogging and film award season. I can’t think of a better kickoff than celebrating two major milestones.
August has been a long, hot, and humid month here in Middle Tennessee. Everything in the garden, including this gardener, is looking a little tired and weary this late in the summer. Still, I’ve found peaceful and pretty moments in my August garden to share with you today.
I’m excited to share this sweet tidbit of news in today’s Friday Faves post. When I first received the email invitation to try Levain Bakery’s handcrafted cookies, I literally did a happy dance and immediately replied to that day-brightening email.
Did you miss the opportunity to see Disclosure Day in theaters as I did? With showings winding down across the country ahead of its release to Blu-Ray and 4K later this month, you can stream it on Amazon Prime Video or Peacock, like we did. My mostly no-spoiler review is here to help you decide if it’s worth it.
I’m back from another little mini vacation from work, feeling refreshed and ready to embrace all the “summerween” vibes I’ve been seeing. Even though we’re in the midst of the dog days of summer, I’m ready to start adding a few warm fall decor pieces, so I started in my dining room.
