Week 32 Links I Love: Year 2026

I am soaking up time at home this August. I’m taking long walks with friends and Henri, going out to dinner in our neighborhood, and making frequent trips to the local farmer’s market for fresh produce. I am not counting down until fall, but loving every little hint of my favorite season. Eucalyptus on the mantle, a fig candle burning in our kitchen, and fresh tomatillo salsa on everything.

Grab your coffee and croissants, and join me for links I love.

Reporting back on the Frame cigarette jeans I bought that arrived this week. They are low-rise, which immediately made me think of my SIL who prefers this style. Fit is true to size, and now I want them in a wash other than black. Oh, REBECCAP15 gets you 15% off.
