Links I Love Week 39
I found this image in my archives while looking for something else and it always reminds me of the opening credits of Midnight in Paris and makes me smile. I am missing Paris so much right now but I am grateful for all the memories and photos that I have captured over the years.
Small but exciting things that happened this week, the new rug FINALLY arrived for the front room, I got the SHOP button on Instagram (I was rejected more than 5 times and pretty much gave up), I found the dark chocolate almonds at Whole Foods that I have been missing for 6 months and This is Us moved up their return date by two weeks. I am ready to cry along with the BIG 3!
