Have a Lovely Weekend. | Cup of Jo


What are you up to this weekend? We’re hanging out with my dad, aunt and brother, and it has been so wonderful to see them. Toby and my brother look like twins these days! Hope you have a good one — take gentle care — and here are a few links from around the web…

What a magical English garden.

Very blueberry-y blueberry muffins.

10 fun things I’ve noticed recently in Brooklyn. (Big Salad gift link)

Banana Republic is giving 30% off full-priced items this weekend. I’d love to wear this brunch dress and these easy travel pants.

This four-ingredient chicken got me out of my dinner rut.”

Did you know that a Clueless TV series is coming?

Jordan Casteel’s paintings are so beautiful and intimate — her subjects, usually people around the neighborhood, are almost always returning her gaze.

Have you heard the slang ‘for the plot?’ “As in: Should I adopt another dog? ‘Yes! For the plot!’”

Baby lambs. xoxo

Also, I’m wondering: Where do you get your news? The NYTimes site? Ezra Klein? The Guardian? Podcasts? Please share below, if you’d like.

Plus, three reader comments:

Says Summer on what disability taught me about parenting: “I grew up with a disabled mom, and she taught me to see the world in different ways — it made me a more empathetic person for life. My mom sometimes caught judgement for being a disabled mom with a small kid, but that’s such ableist B.S. I never would have wanted a different mom than the amazing one I have.”

Says Natalie on a journaling club is a brilliant way to make friends: “I was at an event tonight with a few women I only know peripherally when one of them asked us each to reveal our first email addresses. It was embarrassing, endearing and hilarious! Highly recommend as a conversation starter.”

Says Lauren on a journaling club is a brilliant way to make friends: “Dream blunt rotation.”
