Ok how actually scary is Widow’s Bay? I’m a huge weenie and can’t handle even a little horror if it’s realistic, so I’m thinking I need to steer clear of this one. But I’m also hearing that it’s very funny, and I love Matthew Rhys so this is a really tough call.

Bestie’s kid is staying with us today.
Today we discovered by accident that Maisie knows the word “kitty,” presumably leftover from when Ollie was still with us. Every time we said it, she perked her head and her ears up and started looking around wildly, as if expecting him to walk into the room. I had to apologize to her and explain that Ollie wasn’t coming, and it kind of broke my heart.
Does anyone else involuntarily burst into tears during any birth scene? It happens to me EVERY TIME now and it’s extremely inconvenient.
Daily amazement at the view through our bedroom windows.
I'm in a Facebook group for people who make dupes of Christy Dawn and DÔEN dresses. Mostly I just follow for inspiration and to get leads on indie sewing patterns, but yesterday I posted my most recent June Dress. It was my first time posting in the group and I was a little nervous because there are so many incredibly talented people there. Well, somehow overnight my post kind of blew up and I woke up to over 100 notifications of likes and comments. I was shocked. Everyone was SO NICE, complimenting my seams and the lace trim and asking me questions about the little hacks I made to the pattern. It's so silly, but I actually finally kind of feel like a real sewist. I wanted to learn to sew for a long long time, but I tried a few times and couldn't quite get the hang of it so I gave up. I just didn't think I had the brain for it, but it turns out I DO. I just needed to keep at it! And now I love it! And I'm really happy and proud.
Hoochie daddy Father’s Day shorts incoming 👀
thinking about “you haven’t met all the people who will love you” and like!!! you also haven’t found all the things that will make you happy!!!! there will always be new authors and musicians and artists whose work you will one day discover and love!!!! there will always be new hobbies and skills for you to learn and feel fulfilled by!!! there will always be new things around the corner that will bring sudden and unexpected happiness!!!!!!!!!!!
It was almost 100 degrees with 90%+ humidity the whole time we were in southern Louisiana, but today in Nashville it is currently 69 degrees with 62% humidity at almost 10am. I just took a walk and breathed the fresh air and the cool breeze and felt ALIVE.
I lived in South Florida till I was eighteen, but something has changed inside of me. My blood has thickened.
I just made another linen June Dress and I figured out how to add lace trim 🥰
The bodice was too big on the first round with this one. I don’t know how, since I used the same pattern pieces as last time and only added an inch around the bottom to drop the gathers a little lower. I almost left it because I was tired and the oversized look was kind of chic? But I knew I wouldn’t wear it as much if it gaped, which it did, so I sat down and unpicked the entire thing, sized it down, then put it back together. It added about two hours to the project but I’m so happy with it now. Totally worth the extra effort.
One whole year of using Screen Zen to decrease my screen time! I’m pretty proud. My limits aren’t super strict but I’ve still cut my screen time probably in half, and I haven’t broken the streak even once!
We only left the garden alone for a WEEK.
I forgot to show you guys this, one of my favorite things we saw in Louisiana. It’s a quilt in the Louisiana Museum of Arts and Sciences in Baton Rouge representing all of the parishes. Each square was hand-embroidered by residents of each parish and the quilt was assembled in the 70s. I just love the intricate details and massive amount of work that went into this thing. Fiber arts deserve more respect! Here are a few of my favorite squares:
I downloaded this book to listen to on the drive home from Louisiana because it was free and available and popular on Hoopla. I have a hard time following audiobooks if they’re fiction (I mostly listen to books about spirituality or psychology and save fiction for reading with my eyes,) so I just grabbed it because it looked kind of dumb and fun. I get anxious in the car sometimes so a distraction sounded nice.
This is def one of those books that felt like “dang this would have been good if they’d made it actually good.” You know? Like the story premise was fun but the execution was lacking. Also I guess I’m a prude but super porny scenes in the middle of a book are jarring to me, especially in audiobook form. I got so embarrassed listening to it in my headphones with my family in the car I had to turn it off.
We went to my sister-in-law’s aunt and uncle’s house in Baton Rouge tonight and the boys picked tons of fruit and vegetables from their massive garden. Henry tried like six or seven new foods! It was very exciting.
Henry and my brother on the way to the Louisiana Art and Science Museum. I couldn’t figure out what this picture reminded me of but then it hit me.
