Floral Ice Buckets (& Friday Links)

Chin chin! My jaw dropped when I saw these DIY floral ice buckets. If anyone is hosting a graduation party this weekend, this would sure be a lovely way to serve some champagne!

What are you up to this weekend? Aron and I are going to drive into San Francisco on Saturday, for the West Coast Craft Fair and then to see Hamilton at the Orpheum! I can’t wait! His parents have offered to make it a sleepover night, so we’re going to stay overnight.

And the kids had their last day of school yesterday (I’ve been sharing some photos on Instagram), so now that school is out, I’m making plans for fun things to do next week.

Have a good one!

If you’re in a browsing mood, some links of note…

The yellow and white stripes of Il Pelicano. Always a favorite. (Wonder how similar these would be.)

On the must-try list: Bánh Mì at home. (Thanks, Bridget!)

More proof that nature is amazing! (Remember these bees?)

Clickbait, inherent bias, and the future of journalism.

A look at the life of a (female) pro surfer.

So intrigued about this cookbook after Jenny’s rave review.

And her wonderful Times article on lessons learned from this season’s cookbooks.

Aperol and Campari are two of my favorite things to make cocktails with. Maybe I need to try this next?

Despite all the articles on the death of JCrew, their summer offerings are looking good. I’ll take this hat and these pants, please.

Laughed out loud. Too true.

Who would join this Skin Care forum?

Encourage our sons to play with girls. And other takeaways from “How to Raise a Feminist Son.”

Way to go, girls!

This Kanban system is appealing.

For the kind souls who asked about my swimsuit in Thailand. (Also, here.)

Finally, can’t believe we have a first grader! Here’s Hudson on his first day of Kindergarten—and his last.
