Have a Wonderful Friday Night

Happy Friday night, lovers!!

What are you up to this weekend? We spent the week staying around the house and the farm. Ever since we got back from our trip, I’ve not really wanted to go anywhere or do anything but get our house in order and spend as much time with the kids as possible.

And guess what?

That’s exactly what we’ve done. We’ve always been homebodies and I fear it’s only getting worse with age. If I didn’t absolutely have to, I don’t think I would leave the house for days at a time. But alas, life goes on.

Today was the hottest of the year so far, or at least it felt like it. We’re getting a little taste of Tennessee summers, which, despite having lived here my entire life, still takes me by surprise every year with just hot damn hot it gets. I told PJ today we need to spend the majority of the summer at a pool or the beach. Either one will do.

Tonight for dinner I made this pasta and this salad and both were absolutely delicious. I loved them so much that I may have eaten a little too much and now I feel full, which I hate. Content and happy, but full.

Also, we had three or four extremely ripe bananas, so I made banana bread for dessert which should be ready in about 20 minutes, which means I’m off for the weekend. Have a good one, y’all!! xoxo

Bon Voyage!

My friends, we will be traveling through a few cities in Europe over the next week as we set sail with Celebrity Cruises!! We haven’t sailed with them in four years, which is hard for me to believe.

It’s weird, being back on The Edge, because it feels like no time has passed at all. Everything looks and smells and feels just as amazing and wonderful as it did when we last sailed with them in the summer of 2019, before our world changed forever (our kids came to live with us the week after we got back!).

It feels like a homecoming of sorts, and we can’t wait to explore parts of the world we’ve never been to before. We won’t be updating the blog for a week, but you can follow along on our adventures on Instagram and TikTok!!
