Weekend Links No. 1

Lifestyle

Happy weekend and welcome to Weekend Links No. 1, my first post in an ongoing series where I will share things that catch my eye throughout the week, items I love or want from travel, local, lifestyle, and more. Do you have anything fun planned this weekend? It’s a grocery shop weekend and I’m in full fall planning mode. I’ve also got a bunch of projects I need to catch up on. Hope you enjoy your weekend! Doing something fun? Let me know in the comments below.

The Links

Did you know they were making a spinoff TV show about a member of the Addams Family? I’m curious to see what they do with it, but not 100% sold on the casting yet.

I’m thinking about getting a pair of these shoes, I would so have wanted in the 90s.

This blue sweater is also on my fall shopping list. Something about this shade of blue that screams fall to me. Also, what a cool pattern.

I’ve added more bucket list hotels after reading this article from Architecutral Digest. The insane marble walls in a Paris hotel, checkerboard bathroom in London, and the hot tub view in the Catskills. Wow.

I just bought this must-read book for Clevelander’s recently. I found it at a hidden gem of a bookstore in Cleveland (I posted a reel about it recently )

Have you read this post about how color is disappearing from the world? I’ve always been torn between loving lots of color and a neutral palette so this was an interesting read.

Another new and rare baby was born at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo *squeal*

This recipe has been added to our rotation. It’s so easy to make and delicious. I’m pretty much obsessed with everything she makes.

Thanks for reading this weeks weekend links post. If you make a purchase from one of the links on this post, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. I only recommend things I love or am truly interested in. Hope you enjoy these finds and thanks for your support!

To celebrate #popartday I wanted to share a few great pieces you can see in Cleveland museums from one of my favorite artists and someone I share a birthday with, Andy Warhol 🤍

1-3 Andy Warhol’s Endangered Species exhibit currently going on at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History @gocmnh 

4-6 Two Warhol pieces currently hanging at the Cleveland Museum of Art: Marilyn x 100 in the Contemporary Art wing, and Jaqueline Kennedy II in the Photographs in Ink exhibit.

That’s just a preview, there’s more great Pop and other art to discover in Cleveland. Do you have a favorite piece or artist?

Of course there is the New Orleans style revelry, but did you know Cleveland celebrated 3 other cultural festivities with ties to Mardi Gras?

PLUS Did you know Cleveland is also going to have a Mardi Gras parade and big celebration downtown?

We even have a New Orleans-themed restaurant!

It doesn’t end there- I also reviewed menus from so many local restaurants, bakeries and other shops to find who is making Beignets, King Cakes, Paczki, New Orleans cocktails, and delicious Cajun & Creole food.

This is my new favorite Ohio winter hike! Our sec This is my new favorite Ohio winter hike!

Our second hike on our goal of hiking 24 new-to-us trails this year was also our first snowy hike of the year.

@lakemetroparks feed influenced me to add this park to our list. The vivid hemlock trees really pop against the snowy and leafless tree landscape. It was so worth the drive to get there.

What I liked most was how much visual and trail surface variety this park has. It’s a new favorite and I hope to return in the spring when an abundance of wildflowers are said to be in bloom. 

You’ve got to see this place, it’s dreamy.
