Anybody else having fun with the final days of summer season whereas additionally getting enthusiastic about fall? I’m actually having fun with the cooler mornings currently. (And sure, I do know, I’m climate obsessed. That’s unlikely to alter anytime quickly.)

My FAVORITE THING this week is that this tremendous light-weight scarf. Whereas I nearly by no means really put on a shawl, this one travels with me almost all over the place I am going. It’s a journey blanket on highway journeys, it’s a scarf if a movie show is chilly, and it does double responsibility as a pillow or a blanket on chilly flights. It folds or rolls to an nearly unbelievably small dimension, making it good for tucking right into a carry-on.
I purchased what I’ve referred to as for years “the right scarf” on a piece journey about 8 years in the past. Sadly, the model discontinued the scarves and I’ve by no means discovered one other one prefer it. (And I’ve tried a complete lot of various scarves that had been listed as “journey scarves.”) However this scarf? I’m ecstatic over it. I adore it each bit as a lot as my “good” one and I now have backup and an ideal scarf to share with you too.
What I’m WATCHING: No Time to Die. I lastly watched No Time to Die and it was so good! Whether or not you’re a bond fan or not, I believed this was an excellent film.
