This post is seriously just about stuff. It’s a hot humid day here today…the third since Sunday which was also hot and humid…Den played golf this morning, our shower was fixed fast and Den’s desk finally came. He loves it. Now he is stressing over a chair and the perfect desk pad. Half of his study looks beautiful and the other half is just stacks of stuff that has to be sorted. Neither of us are in a sorting mood!
Here is stuff I want to make…that middle one is Paella made with orzo! Most of these are from The Kitchn.
Stuff I want to buy…that balm is supposed to be amazing. The clear one will stay on your lips for the longest time but I can’t find it anywhere. Those leather flats look perfect and comfy for fall. I really want the green ones!
Finished and loved this book.
I think I am reading this one next…
Waiting for Den…he is bringing us lunch and a root beer!
Stay cool…it’s impossible to be outside here! I am mad at WordPress yet again! I keep getting can’t save your post messages! So irritating!

The Other Woman looks like a book I might enjoy…and so does that food.
I can’t commiserate about WordPress, since I love it. Sorry!
The food looks tempting. Enjoy!

I love WP now but every once in a while it does weird things…like this bar that comes up and says I can’t save while I write.

Den’s desk is gorgeous – is that a picture of young Patty on the top of it?
I love those flats but bet they don’t come in narrow.
I knew you’d love The Shortest Way Home!

Love all that”stuff”. You must be like some of my sisters who love to cook and they cook stuff like in those photos. I wish I loved to cook but I don’t.

Hope you find the balm!
It is hot and humid here too. I will still take it over snow- but I would love the humidity to go away. At least for a couple days.
All the dishes look delicious. I have been making lots of salads this summer- been too hot for me to do any cooking. 🙂
Have a lovely day.

Everybody talks about that seasoning and I haven’t tried it yet. I can’t tell you how we have looked and looked for the perfect desk. His study was complete but we had my old cherry school
Desk in it and it was way too small for him. He is so happy and the desk has all kinds of nooks in it!

His desk is awesome. I like those cubby holes and mini cabinets at top. Do you keep seeing those Tieks and Rothy’s on Pinterest? I read a blog review or something on Rothy shoes, validating they’re really comfortable.
