Have a Great Weekend. | Cup of Jo


What are you up to this weekend? I’ve been traveling for work and am excited to come home to squeeze the boys. In my twenties, I would daydream about bringing treats back from a trip for my future children, like my parents used to do. Now I’m keeping an eye out for cool candy or an airport keychain (what they’d actually like best haha). Hope you have a good one, and here are a few links from around the web…

Crimped hair is back! Thoughts?

The boys each had three helpings of skillet chicken pot pie.

Banana Republic is 40% off right now. I’m eyeing these comfy jeans, these easy shoes, and this pretty sweater.

This ballet dancer’s 345-square-foot apartment still leaves room for stretching.

Six lessons from Sense and Sensibility. For example, “Do not settle for someone shitty” and “Close the door behind you, take a long and lusty walk. Fill your lungs, stretch out your arms, for you are alive!”

”In fighting for every Black child, did I betray my own?” Fascinating online discourse. Next week, This American Life will feature a conversation with the mother and daughter. (NYTimes gift link)

Great picture of a dog, haha.

An excellent 3-in-1 product that makes my skin glow and my mornings easier.

118 things to do instead of doomscrolling. “Go for a cat-spotting walk…Back a car into a driveway without hitting the house.” Genuinely love all of these. (NYTimes gift link)

Made me laugh.

Plus, two reader comments:

Says PNW Grateful on 9 readers share their honeymoon snapshots: “When we moved cross country, I found an old card from my dad in a box. He had written, ‘Add this to your honeymoon fund, and have a ball.’ He was an older dad, so he was in his seventies when I got married. Now, when my friends text me about their plans, I say ‘Have a ball!’ as an ode to my dad.”

Says Rebecca on how not to cry while chopping onions: “My husband keeps his *dirt-biking* goggles in the kitchen for when he chops onions! It always makes me laugh to walk into the room and find him standing there in those giant goggles.”
