What are you up to this weekend? We’re doing the link list a day early because the boys and I are heading to Cornwall tonight to visit my aunts, dad, brother, cousins, and cousins’ kids, and eat our weight in Cornish pasties. Hope you have a good one, and here are some links from around the web…

Excited to watch this movie on the flight.
Celine Song, the director-writer of Materialists and Past Lives, actually worked as a matchmaker years ago. “Everybody’s very honest with the matchmaker in a way that I think they’re probably not as honest with their therapists. Of course, that’s something that I talk about in the film. It’s like, well, a therapist, it’s about the soul. It’s about what you’re going through. It’s about a psychological crisis. But when it comes to a matchmaker, you’re saying like, ‘Oh, I would like to acquire a boyfriend and I want the asset that I’m acquiring to have these specs.’”
This brush has been great now that I’m air drying my hair.
Baby ducks working up their courage to join the mom in the water. Gahhh!
Who else wants to eat picnic-y dinners all summer?

Plus, three reader comments:
Says Anonymous on a very low-key summer checklist: “1. Ice cream once a week, min. 2. A fruit crumble; agnostic to fruit type. 3. Just bought my first bikini in 15 years and gonna wear it at the pool! Under a UPF rash guard because I’m not a maniac but still! THE BIKINI WILL KNOW SHE’S THERE.”
Says Sequoia on a very low-key summer checklist: “Every summer my son and I master something. So far, we’ve had summers of pancakes ’21, lemonade ’22, ice cream ’23, last year was the summer of the terrible job, and this summer we’re back with the summer of pizza.”
Says Carey on a very low-key summer checklist: “My daughter loved satire so I introduced her to Onion articles, as they became more appropriate for her. ‘‘Unconditional Love Given to 15-Year Old Who Just Called Mom a Bitch in Middle of Hollister’ was a touchstone for us.”
Lots of love, and we’ll still be publishing Big Salad while we’re traveling, if you’d like to sign up. Have a good one. xoxo
