Have a Beautiful Weekend. | Cup of Jo

What are you up to this weekend? We’re hosting a trivia night with neighborhood kids, and Toby is the emcee. Wish us luck! And thanks for your excitement over Babaà’s discount code. It’s become such a fun annual tradition. Hope you have a good one, and here are a few links from around the web…

I’ve been wearing these cute flats non-stop, and they’re SO comfy.

Jon Hamm’s new show looks like a wild ride.

Overhearing couples on dates, haha. Once, when Freddie and I went out to dinner, the couple next to us was CLEARLY listening to us and trying to guess our relationship status. “I think the second date,” the guy said. He was correct!

This bumper sticker made me lol.

Chelsea doesn’t dress like a White Lotus guest. “Cheetah print on sunglasses and large gold embellishments on espadrilles aren’t for the faint of heart…but Chelsea sees them and thinks, ‘What fun!’”

What a cool green bedroom.

Have you heard Amy Poehler’s new podcast? In the first episode, she and Tina Fey chat about menopause, TV, and being workaholics. (“B*tches get stuff done!“)

Charred cauliflower quesadillas.

9 habits that are making my 40s my favorite decade, and I’d love to hear yours. (Big Salad)

Hahaha.

Plus, three reader comments…

Says Tanya on what has made you laugh lately?: “My four-year-old announced that the heels of his feet are called ‘foot chins’ and I lost it. I sure needed that.”

Says Susan on it’s sexy book season: “Crossing to Safety by Wallace Stegner altered my brain chemistry — I’d give anything to read it again for the first time.”

Says Kaff on what has made you laugh lately: “After seeing it here, I showed my daughters the Make Your Own Connections site. Now they absolutely roast me and their dad. Categories include ‘brands mom doesn’t “trust”‘ and ‘ice cream flavors dad says he doesn’t like but eats anyway.’ There’s nothing sweeter than being reminded that no one knows you better than your children.”
