Links I Love Week 42
This weekend, I took some much needed time off! Since the arrival of The Paris Calendar, I have worked straight through weekends to get orders out. I went to my local farmers market, cooked a bit, and got a nap in. The past couple of weeks I have struggled with sleep and the nap was just what I needed. The weather has turned to sweaters and jeans and I am embracing the change.
Grab your coffee and croissants and join me for my favorite links.
