BEMOAN
Gap Inc. recently announced plans to close 175 stores. This piece discusses why Gap may have lost its cool and became, as the author so eloquently puts it, a “basic bitch.”

DRINK
We have beer. We have raspberries. We have orange juice. Soon, we’ll put them together and have beermosas. I hope they’re as good as the photo looks.

FOLLOW
Artist Meghan Maconochie creates colorful animals and cultural icons out of pencil shavings. Follow her impressive Instagram feed here.

SEE
We all know Disney takes some creative liberties with its animated princesses. See what they’d look like if they were historically accurate.

LEARN
According to this article, German-Americans are America’s largest ethnic group and they’ve assimilated so well that we barely even notice.

LIGHT
I love bringing a new scent with me on vacation. It helps bring back happy memories of our travels when we return. Hi Wildflower Botanica is looking to do the same thing with books.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
I may be on crutches, but I refuse to let it kill my summer style. Here’s inspiration for an 11-piece wardrobe to get you through the work week with ease. Many of the items will transition into fall. (Truth be told, I already purchased the dress, skirt, shell, and cardigan. The dress is incredibly well-made and flattering. I’ll need to get the top taken in, but it’s worth it.)

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
