This weekend we are going to take it easy. Maybe go to the farmers market, maybe go see some other sights? We only have three weeks left to spend in Louisiana. I’ve loved this summer so much, and want to try to soak up every last minute here. What are you up to this weekend? Here are a few of my favorite links from around the web this week..
We just bought this popsicle mold to help us through this last month of heat in Louisiana. So if you have any great popsicle recipes, send them my way!
Charlie’s birthday is coming up in a few weeks so I’ve had birthdays on the mind a lot lately. I found this cool list of 15 meaningful traditions for your child’s birthday. I really want to start more traditions so I think we may try a couple this year. I especially love the one about the tree.
A print that I’ve been coveting lately.
Have you been to the Shake Shack before? I’ve visited a few times and absolutely love it. They are the yummiest burgers and shakes. Well, I just found out yesterday at the library that they have a COOKBOOK! I was so excited. Now I can make all of my favorite Shake Shack recipes at home.
In High School I did a project for school where I asked my neighbor, an amazing man, and World War II vet questions about his life and his experience in the war. I was thinking lately how I really want to do that with my grandparents to have all of those memories recorded, straight from their mouth their life, experiences, learnings, etc. I found this list of 50 questions, to get me started. Have you ever tried this? I’d love to hear how it went.
A *healthier* brownie recipe that really want to try, with a surprising ingredient.
A message that I listened to this week that I love and brings me so much hope.
We’re making a beach trip next weekend and I loved these beach tips with a toddler. The baby powder one was especially intriguing.
A beautiful quote by Maya Angelou. Have you read anything by her? If so, did you like it? I’d love to read a book by her, so please let me know if you have any recommendations.
I hope you enjoy your weekend!!
