Love the tile comparison! I don’t know why, but a bunch of your images aren’t showing up for me: on this post and on previous ones.
Ah! Thanks for letting me know.
I’m having the same issue!
Yikes! Please let me know what photos aren’t showing up, if you’re able!
Yes! I have this issue too.
Oh boy. Can you tell me what’s not showing up?
No problems here!
Well that’s some good news!
Hi Erin, photos 2 &4 aren’t showing up for me.
Okay! If you do a hard refresh (command + r) is that still true?
I’m having the same problem with your posts. They either take a long time to show up or never show up! Really enjoy your writing and thoughts…don’t want to miss anything!
Okay. So sad. Can you tell me which photos aren’t showing up?
Today it was the marigold pj’s and your leftover pantry mix sometimes all of them
Thanks so much.
All seems to be repaired now. All lovely pictures intact!
Sweet relief!
Hi Erin, I’m having trouble with #4 specifically–the magic mix link. Thanks for your posts!
So sad! Prettiest picture. Thanks for letting me know!
For me it’s the pj’s and the leftovers. I have been having this problem for some time now. I thought it was just on my end.
Thanks so much. Looking into it.
Same here.
The way you weave words together is so beautiful.
I love the color in your pictures (and life in general)! Such a great way to appreciate life in the moment!
So excited for you about your sister moving nearby! Happy news! Also … wow … that postcard explains so much!
such pretty photos this weak! Always really but this weak looks especially pretty to my eyes. Can you tell us more about that magic mix? What did your kids do with it and how long did it hold interest? An inquiring mind with a young one would like to know. Thank you!
Sure! I just put everything small and interesting to look at together last night and they scooped and poured (and Silas eventually threw it handfuls all over the floor this morning)! We’re trying hard to find quiet activities for them to do in the morning! It’s a challenge because Faye can sit quietly and focus on a task for a long time, but Silas is still too little! Still all around good fun and glad to have another trick up our sleeves!
In that the color of Gowanus, Brooklyn? I agree the water may be that color? LOL. I love that Magic Mix. Do you eat it, smoke it or use it for potpourri? I hope you eat it and if so what did it taste like?
Ha! My kids used it to pour and scoop and play with!
Congrats on your sister moving over, that must be such a lovely thing to look forward to. Imagine your new shared memories 🙂 I also thought your hand looked very nice holding that peach 🙂 xxx
