Click. Read. Love. 6.16.23

Happy Friday! If it seems like I’ve been MIA (?) it’s because I have been. After a whirlwind trip to RI (traveling with a toddler, two dogs and a cat is interesting) we are back in Vermont. I really love that house, but it is wild how it doesn’t really feel like home anymore. At least not in the sense that Vermont does, even though our house here is very much a work in progress, and a construction site/obstacle course most days. I found myself after a few days feeling ready to go home (to Vermont). More to say on that…but for now I wish you all a happy weekend.

Here’s the best of the week…
