Is it 5:00 yet? This week has been busy and I didn’t get a post out.. Instead I have been doing dumb stuff like moving furniture to new spots like my little free table here where the coat tree was- which is now where the grasscloth table went…and so on.

My husband says it’s like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. He feels what’s the point until I have ordered wallpaper and some other things that require committing. This isn’t that for sure and how I procrastinate when I can’t get my marbles together.
Honesty, I’ve been thinking about the gelato my friend Paul @fabfairytales has posted and how can I get some tonight plus watch the Olympics. #weekendgoals

I hope your Friday is great! 😎My post will get out someday.

I am obsessed with this @shopclarev Pot de Miel bag and a little summer dress I just bought at @tuckernuck . I added a strap from another bag to this cutie to make it a cross-body and I’ve been wearing it and the dress so much. The ease of dresses and light bags is so nice during these hot summer days don’t you agree? ☀️This was my first time ordering from Tuckernuck and I love all three things I bought. A great source for cute summer things. I’ll link to this on Friday’s blog!

Are you preferring dresses or shorts or a mix right now? I’m doing a little of both. Hey we’re almost to Friday!

I moved my grass cloth table from @serenaandlily out of the entry as the skylights were wreaking havoc with it. It’s in my bedroom now and I am loving it as a nightstand! I can fit all my books and glass of water.

I am still struggling to figure out what I want in this bedroom. I waffle back and forth about an upholstered bed, when I should just pick one. Also, I do not love the wall mounted lights. As a reader, I thought they’d be the best thing ever, but they shine in my eyes and I miss the easy cord turn off of a lamp! Are you a reader? What do you prefer? And does anyone have an upholstered bed they love?

Anyway, these are the big questions 🤣I bandy back in forth in my head.

I hope you’re having a great week. I was excused from a jury duty so I am feeling a bit freewheeling today. I’m actually glad I had the experience yesterday. The judge at the Superior Court just was so impressive. We truly don’t appreciate enough what those people do . With all the crud, there are some very good people in this country that really care. That’s what I took away from it. We need to know that in these times.

I was so excited to get my beautiful quilt from Tessa @nineandsixteen yesterday. It’s even lovelier in person and I love it at the foot of my bed for summer.

I’ve been following Tessa’s blog since way back before Instagram. It’s been great seeing her get into creating her own line of things for the home with her eye for beauty. Congrats Tessa!

I’ve got the bar summered up with my drink umbrellas, some coral and one of my favorite summer photos of my dad with the grandkids and a little piece of art found at Target. I need a drink with floating fruit this weekend.☀️

Summer is flying by too fast. I saw the back to school stuff replaced the pool toys at Target and that always bums me out.. Hope you all are having a great weekend and some summer fun!

My Friday post this week-tips on how to shop smart

My Friday post this week-tips on how to shop smart at the Nordstrom sale, a cute tea spot and neighborhood to explore in San Francisco and a delicious summer recipe to try!

I choose just a few pieces from the very pushed Anniversary Sale. It’s important to look for classics at this sale and take stock of what you have before you shop. Getting into the actual store is a great idea. More tips on the blog. This blazer, jeans, wool coat and sweater are tops of my list for smart buys.

Link with it all @northerncalstyle

I love when you leave a plant alone for a while and you notice it’s thriving like this ivy in the bathroom. Sorry I haven’t posted for a few days, but I honestly felt like I didn’t have anything cool to share! Do you ever feel like that? I’ve been working on creating a little potting table in my garden and repotting a lot of the backyard plants during this great weather. I hope your week is going great.

I love this little stool from @hudsongracesf and keep moving it to different locations.

Just one of so many adorable homes in San Francisc

Just one of so many adorable homes in San Francisco yesterday. We had high tea at the cutest tea room and walked through Noe Valley. It was great to escape the heat and see the city again after so long! I hadn’t been there since the pandemic. It still feels a little empty to me. More in my story. Hope you all are enjoying your Sunday.

Is anyone else following the hugely talented @darcymiller ? This tablescape is dreamy and I want to recreate it, like everything she does. Right now she has the cutest ‘Summer Camp’ series going on with fun projects to do with your kiddos. If mine were home still, we’d be doing it. I loved doing summer projects with my boys. Darcy is so talented and this is a beautiful and fun account!

Just was gifted these beautiful plums last night!

Just was gifted these beautiful plums last night! They taste amazing. I think my husband is going to try a clafoutis with them tonight. I love desserts, but honestly nothing beats just eating them just as they are. Are you all enjoying some of the wonderful fruits of summer? Apricots are my favorites.
