Weekend reading: link roundup

April 17, 2015

Laqa&Co Tweedledee coral nail polish | A Girl Named PJ

I have some exciting news! We found a house in DC! Actually, it’s a townhouse in Bethesda, Maryland, and it’s ours for the next two years. Jordan just got the keys, and I’m hoping to pop by this weekend when the boys and I are visiting. It’s time to start thinking about decorating!

Hope you have a great weekend, whatever you’re planning to do. (Care to share?) Here are some fun links to explore:

The prettiest peachy coral nail polish. (I’m wearing it above!)

I’d love to get my hands on these 10 magazines. Long live print!

This recipe combines two of my favorite foods: pesto and bread.

Thinking of starting a blog? Here’s the first step. Plus, 5 things every blog needs.

Before you judge the behavior (or the parents) of your child’s friends, read this beautiful post.

J.Crew style at every age.

I’m adding this book, recommended by Joy, to my reading list.

And I’m overly excited that my copy of this book just arrived in the mail!

The sneakers I wore in high school are making a comeback. Long live the ’90s!

For the record, I’d be happy to live in a donut shop.

If you’re a fan of gold, glitter, and motivational mantras, go enter this giveaway.

Such a cool idea: A fully customizable infant car seat.

Could you wear the same thing to work every day?
 

More things I’ve written:

 
Over on Cool Mom Picks, I rounded up the most stylish women’s rain boots for spring.

I had five (!) slideshows published on BHG.com this week: DIYs with gold paint, Craigslist furniture makeovers, DIY coasters, Dip-dyed projects, and DIY painted pillows.

      Thanks, Allie! I was also fascinated by the idea of a work uniform. I don’t think I could wear one outfit every day for three years, but I wouldn’t mind paring down my wardrobe so I have less choices.

Day 12 | No photos from today (well none worth sharing) because I sat in front of my laptop from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. working on deadline. My busy work day also meant that my kids didnt get very much of my attention. My husband kept them occupied for some of the day but I dont think they got any schoolwork done. Oh well we all deserve a lazy day every once in a while. I know I do! | So whats this photo? Just some of the amazing birthday presents I received from my friends this weekend!

Asa had a full-on temper tantrum because he didnt want to color his drawing of a rainbow and nearly lost his cool while practicing Typing Club. I wish I could do more educational activities with them like taking alphabet walks and tallying up different items around the house but Im totally overwhelmed with a huge deadline this week. In fact I had to keep working after the kids went to bed and now its nearlyC-Quarantine Day 8 | Ive felt anxious many days this past week but today was the first day I had the blues. Not sad about anything specific. Just ... sad. Cabin fever? Exhaustion? We decided to get out of the house to look at the cherry blossoms in Bethesda. The Kenwood neighborhood was quiet so we parked and walked down a side street keeping our distance from the few other people out and about. But with cars parked on one side of the road and moving cars to trying to pass them & the pedestriansOn the first day of #socialdistancing my true love made for me Nutella-filled croissantsyummy!
