Latest Loves
A few things I'm loving lately:
1. I don't think I truly understood or appreciated pimento cheese until my 40s, despite its consistent appearance throughout my childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Now that I'm on board, this one is my latest favorite. Paired with these crackers from my favorite grocery store, it's my go-to for an afternoon/early evening snack...and maybe even a complete dinner when my kids aren't home.
2. Continuing the theme of my love of travel, this podcast from Condé Nast Traveler has introduced me to some deeply interesting women and fascinating places I'd like to go one day.
3. This find combines my obsession with geranium and my quest for hydration in a way that feels both effective and luxurious.
4. I've loved Owen Wilson since his banana-yellow jumpsuit days in Bottle Rocket - and not just because he briefly dated one of my college friends (although it is an amazing story and only reinforces his delightful, quirky charm) so this new show from AppleTV was an easy yes for me. Heartwarming, funny, thoughtful, and encouraging, Owen is at his best as the lovable underdog.
5. If I'm ever looking for something to add to my closet, I always check here first - why buy brand new when there are bajillions of clothes already out in the world waiting for a chance to be enjoyed?! Searchable by brand, size, color, style, price, and condition, I've scored everything from a brand-new-with-tags Veronica Beard dress for $60 to a gently-worn pair of Tods loafers that would have been nearly $900 new, but with a bit of wear were less than $50. And, I can mail in items of my own that I'm not wearing as much for potential credit toward something I'll love and wear with one of their mail-in kits.
