\"Sch\u00e4fler<\/p>\n

What are you up to this weekend? I\u2019ve been traveling for work and am excited to come home to squeeze the boys. In my twenties, I would daydream about bringing treats back from a trip for my future children, like my parents used to do. Now I\u2019m keeping an eye out for cool candy or an airport keychain (what they\u2019d actually like best haha). Hope you have a good one, and here are a few links from around the web\u2026<\/p>\n

Crimped hair<\/a> is back! Thoughts?<\/p>\n

The boys each had three helpings of skillet chicken pot pie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Banana Republic<\/a> is 40% off right now. I\u2019m eyeing these comfy jeans<\/a>, these easy shoes<\/a>, and this pretty sweater<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This ballet dancer\u2019s 345-square-foot apartment<\/a> still leaves room for stretching. <\/p>\n

Six lessons from Sense and Sensibility<\/a>. For example, \u201cDo not settle for someone shitty\u201d and \u201cClose the door behind you, take a long and lusty walk. Fill your lungs, stretch out your arms, for you are alive!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dIn fighting for every Black child, did I betray my own?\u201d<\/a> Fascinating online discourse. Next week, This American Life<\/a> will feature a conversation with the mother and daughter. (NYTimes gift link)<\/p>\n

Great picture of a dog<\/a>, haha.<\/p>\n

An excellent 3-in-1 product<\/a> that makes my skin glow and my mornings easier.<\/p>\n

118 things to do instead of doomscrolling<\/a>. \u201cGo for a cat-spotting walk\u2026Back a car into a driveway without hitting the house.\u201d Genuinely love all of these. (NYTimes gift link)<\/p>\n

Made me laugh<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Plus, two reader comments:<\/p>\n

Says PNW Grateful on 9 readers share their honeymoon snapshots<\/a>: \u201cWhen we moved cross country, I found an old card from my dad in a box. He had written, \u2018Add this to your honeymoon fund, and have a ball.\u2019 He was an older dad, so he was in his seventies when I got married. Now, when my friends text me about their plans, I say \u2018Have a ball!\u2019 as an ode to my dad.\u201d<\/p>\n

Says Rebecca on how not to cry while chopping onions<\/a>: \u201cMy husband keeps his *dirt-biking* goggles in the kitchen for when he chops onions! It always makes me laugh to walk into the room and find him standing there in those giant goggles.\u201d<\/p>\n
