Hi everyone! We made it to the weekend — woohoo! It’s been a busy, wonderful week here. On Thursday night we went to meet Elin Hilderbrand, which was such a thrill, and yesterday we took Max to see Cars 3. He absolutely loved it.

A rainbow! We’re eating a rainbow. All summer long I’ve been obsessed with smoothie bowls. They started as a novelty for me — something I dismissed as unnecessary when a smoothie could simply be sipped — but lately I’ve become a full convert. What changed my mind is how fun and refreshing they feel in … Read more
