- Speaking of lemons…Isn’t this a gorgeous looking take on an upside down cake?
- I went down a rabbit hole of South Korean YouTube videos these week and boy are they ever calm and soothing. 해그린달 haegreendal’s channel is vlog like in format and everything she does is so very intentional. She is very big on SDH (small deliberate happiness) that I find to be a great practice. She also makes me want to scrub my house down from top to bottom. Cooking tree 쿠킹트리 posts the most gorgeous cooking videos. Admittedly I do watch her videos at time and half speed because they can be a bit slow and I turn the volume down on both channels because they are vaguely ASMRish (which I don’t get but to each their own)
- Is anyone reading anything interesting? I just downloaded The Mermaid and Mrs. Hancock by Imogen Hermes Gowar to listen to. So far I am enjoying it. The narrator (Juliet Stevenson) is fabulous
Lord have mercy on us was it ever hot this week! We had over 100 degree temps for the first half of the week and it finally dropped down to the high 80s for the rest. Thank goodness we have air conditioning but I am not looking forward to our electricity bill this month.
We don’t have any plans for this weekend except for Father’s Day activities on Sunday. I am doing a little bit of a refresh in my office. I have an Ikea Linnmon tabletop with an Alex set of drawers supporting one end and plain legs supporting the other (like this). I bought another set of drawers and a longer tabletop . I needed some additional storage and my desk is always so cluttered and crowded. The new desk set up will be over a foot longer.
I’m toying with the idea of painting the china cabinet that serves as a linen storage in the office. It is a dirty cream color and I want it to be white like the desk and bookcase. I doubt I’ll get to it this weekend since assembling Ikea furniture is certain to take eight times longer than I think it will.
Have a splendid weekend!
