Weekly Roundup

I’ve been enjoying a recent exploration (nay, obsession?) of Scandinavian countries and the ways they live their happy lives. Being ranked the happiest countries in the world, they’re certainly inspiring. So, while Margot has been struggling with a sleep regression, I embraced the Danish practice of having babies take naps outside in the stroller. Do you know Danish babies nap outdoors in fresh air throughout all the seasons, and often with a caregiver not right beside them?

Get a good look at the colors of my house (above) because we’re repainting it and they’re changing!

We enjoyed the movie Sharper, but, as always, I recommend you just turn it on and not watch the trailer first!

Care comes from community.

Margot has 6 different kinds of crayons and I can confidently say these are the absolute best - the color and texture is superb. I find myself using them as well as these water coloring books!

Millions of pounds of luxury vinyl tiles are being thrown away at an increasing rate.

Now THIS is a holiday I can get behind celebrating.

The Best Thing You Can Do for the Planet Is So Easy: Stop Throwing Away Food.

I just ordered another cafe curtain rod so there’s only two rooms of the house that don’t have this curtain style. It’s the best.

San Diego locals, take a moment to share your thoughts on the county’s housing blueprint here.

The before and after doesn’t need to be shocking to be impactful.

Perhaps the best couch I’ve ever seen.

I think I am about to officially become and athlete.

My playlist this month is short but the songs are still good!

Friendly reminder that this Saturday is April Fools Day. Watch out for tricks!
