already so hot & muggy here this morning, but we’re now 2 short weeks into choosing daily* walks with wee Luna around the lane over bleary-eyed doomscrolling first thing & we can’t go back. she won’t allow it. look at this face.

crossed 4 state lines in 5.5 hours on the drive from WV to my dad & stepmom’s house near black mountain, NC. pleased to report my old pal Linus is much less shy about demanding affection! 🥹

I considered making my mom’s friend Doty’s salted pecans but our oven needs cleaning, sigh.
