Here’s what’s new in our world!
Date Night To Brasserie Saison
Oh boy, how precious date nights are these days! My FABULOUS mother-in-law, Eileen, occasionally comes over to play with the boys while we go out for an early dinner. I hold those nights so dear to my heart.
We dined at Brasserie Saison downtown and had a delicious meal! (Drinks at Fitzroy beforehand 😎 )
Salmon Dip with Toast + a salad to share
Mussels, Frites, and Bread for dipping
Good Reads
Since the pandemic began we hadn’t been able to do all the normal indoor toddler activities with Birch – the Discovery Museum, the library, playdates with little friends. This little guy LOVES books and had been deprived of going to see the actual stacks for so long!
Does he look excited or what?!
That’s better!
{Masks for extra safety}
We read 100 books!
I enjoyed this one:
This was the best Goosebumps book. Challenge me!
Garden Tomatoes
Looks what’s growing!!
Carry-On Set
I posted a few weeks ago about the new Countertime Carry-on Set and mine is here with some new pics! Beautycounter just launched a TSA-approved version of my favorite anti-aging skincare line, Countertime. It comes in a cute pouch! I went to the Cramer Photo studio to take some mascara pics and snapped a few with this set too.
Also – new headshot! Heeeeeey!
Making Waves
What else is dressed up? Our bed! I found this duvet cover on clearance at Pottery Barn. It goes so well with our blue theme that I knew it was meant to be ours. At 9 years old, our white duvet cover was ripping in several places so this is the new summer choice.
I am OBSESSED with the ZIPPER closure!!!! Not only is it so much easier than buttons (which always break off) but the line at the bottom is so much cleaner. No duvet pockets dipping down through the gaps.
Say Oui
Oui by Yoplait sent me a care package of their fruit-on-the-bottom yogurts. I am all about the whole milk French style! Plus the little glass jars are so cute. I’ve been saving mine!
Before…
Here’s the before. I’ll show the after soon!!!!
What’s In His Mouth?
A paci 😆 Birch found one in a drawer and has been sucking it like a baby. Silly boy! He hasn’t actually used once since he was a few months old.
A ring pop. Cause he has a cool mom 😎
A cool dad too!

The new duvet cover is beautiful! May I ask what insert you use inside yours? I love my Pottery Barn quilt, but am considering an upgrade.
Kath Younger says
I have a comforter from The Company Store. Based on a quick search of my email order history, I think it’s this one!
Elisabeth says
Thanks, Kath!
Pat says
I have 2 duvets from Company Store, on for winter and the other is lighter for spring and fall. Very nice and a decent ptice.
Kathryn says
Thank you for wearing a mask and having your sweet boy wear a mask too,
Tomatoes look great. I like that this is a all about Birch post 😉 Happy weekend Kath
