The boys have been out of city final weekend, and, craving a shot of child power, I took my honorary niece to the playground. She was slightly dazed within the warmth till I remembered the A+ knowledge from Cup of Jo reader Chloe: “My favourite parenting recommendation is, ‘If they’re crabby, add water.’ Run a shower, take a bathe, water the backyard, wash the canine, have a scorching drink, have a chilly drink… simply add water.” So, we pulled out her little cup and crammed it on the consuming fountain. For the remainder of the hour, she shrieked and splashed. “Heading house!” I lastly texted her dad and mom. “Fyi, she’s soaked.”
Later that day, my pal Ryan and I headed to dinner and ordered a prosciutto starter. The board got here with a scoop of giardiniera, aka pickled greens in vinegar. The combo was SO scrumptious, and what a simple method to whip up a pre-dinner snack for buddies, proper?
Additionally, how cool would it not be to deck out a bed room with a sample you like? My pal Holly shared these pictures of Hôtel Duc de Saint Simon in Paris, and I really like how enveloped the room feels by flowers. Additionally, that bow hook, swoon. (Steal model right here.)
Lastly, I lastly found out my swimsuit cover-up look. Previously, I’ve worn clothes like this, which I nonetheless like, however they’re very all-or-nothing, and all through the day I choose with the ability to combine issues up. So! My new go-to: a white linen shirt and monitor shorts (additionally in stripes). Simple, cool, carried out and carried out.
