5 things I'm loving right now
Egg holders, soup recipes, skincare + more
Egg holders. I love keeping our hen’s eggs on the countertop, right now they are in a straw basket, nothing fancy. But I’ve definitely been bookmarking elevated options to really make them a statement. Feels like a fun conversation starter, and also, eggs are so beautiful to look at—they deserve all the attention they can get IMO.

Le Prunier’s Plumscreen. I invested in some new, clean skincare at the beginning of the year and have made a good dent in most of the products I purchased (see the full collection here). I’ve been enjoying everything so far, but the Plumscreen in particular deserves a shout-out. I’m fairly sensitive to strong scents and this one hits the mark in just the right way— a subtle plum scent (dare I say almond-esque?) that feels earthy and mild. I love how it feels on my skin as well.
Something from Nothing by Allison Roman. There are two recipes we’ve been cooking on repeat from this book, I have yet to tire from the flavors. Buttered Tomato Soup with Lentils and Fennel (pg. 82) and Dilly Bean Stew with Cabbage and Frizzled Onions (pg. 65). We’ve tried a handful of other recipes and have yet to be disappointed, but these two pages are well-worn from all the times we’ve turned to them.
My personalized signet rings. I have two of these rings with my kids’ initials on each, I love to wear them stacked. I love how minimal and simple they are.
Hiking + evening walks. We’ve been doing a lot more hiking lately now that the mountains are green again! Some days I’ll go on a hike with my family, other days I’ll go out with some friends. If it’s a busier day, I’ll end the night with a walk around the neighborhood— listening to a podcast or book, or talking with David. It’s simple, but it feels so good to get outside and walk!
Thanks for reading— until next week!
