a bit of this, a bit of that

photos from Atlanta, my truck, my garage, the farm + more xooxox

Hey friends,

A bit of this and a bit of that today. Long live blogging!!!

Grace and I recently took a quick trip to Atlanta. The hands down best thing we ate was the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich at Bomb Biscuit….Erika Council is the best!!!!!!!!! It was so, so, so great to see her and eat her incredible food.

Have I ever been happier? Nope! Bomb Biscuit. Worth the trip.

Then we took a walk through the beautiful Oakland Cemetery across the street. I loved this stack of pots outside of the cemetery greenhouse.

Two trees in the cemetery…BFFs!

We saw the one-and-only Bridget Everett!!! Love her so much. And love a weekend away with Grace so much <3

Also the sides at Paschal’s….yummmm.

I made lasagna in class the other week and I’m considering making this picture of it my new phone background. Oh here’s that class if you want to take it! Did you know I have 135 classes in my online video library?! ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY-FIVE! They’re all right here.

Still in love with my truck. Especially when it’s filled with lumber. And peep my new bumper stickers from everywhere shop.

I’ve been working on built-in bookcases but also making fun modern birdhouses with scrap wood….and for all the birders, yes Grace and I have spoken about the size of the boxes/openings and I will be making adjustments!

Check out these absolutely enormous and perfect button-down shirts at Capital Fabric Supply in Kingston, NY (my dad for scale!).

Breakfast of my dreams at the Historic Village Diner in Red Hook, NY, one of my favorite diners in the world.

Last but certainly not least: this wild photo my pal Anthony took of me at the farm the other week when Treadlight, our flower/native plant farm neighbor, was doing a controlled burn and I walked by. …the world is on fire but I keep tidying the farm. Chop wood, carry water and all that…

What’s keeping you afloat these days?
