I was more than just a little excited to read that David & Luise of Green Kitchen Stories visited three of our favorite NY restaurants – Peels, Buvette, and The Butcher’s Daughter – during a recent trip to the states.

How adorable are these guys? Our friends, Em & John, hosted an adventure dinner party for a group of their pals in North Carolina, and this week Emily shares her tips on doing so on her blog. What a fantastic idea!

It’s kind of embarrassing that we’ve never been to Popham Beach in the summer. This post on Designtripper has inspired me to make it happen – at least by the end of September!

We loved reading this guide to exploring midcoast Maine on Lady Gouda this week!

Spotted SF, a blog featuring snapshots of “favorite neighborhood spots around San Francisco & other travel gems, too” is a new favorite for sure!

Homesick for Provence, I checked out Peter Mayle’s Provence: A-Z from the library last Friday and finished it the next day. I highly recommend picking it up if you’re planning a trip to the area!

Happy weekend! We’ll be working a good bit this weekend, so please get out, have a little fun, and eat some delicious food for us!
