Yesterday morning, I woke up to a cool, dry breeze coming in the open window. It was so lovely after all of that heat and humidity, that I opened every window I possibly could. We were supposed to see 78 degrees, but it never really got much higher than 64 for some reason. I am not complaining. Sometimes it feels nice to put on a fine gauge sweater.
This may just be the third or fourth Weekend Favorites post recently, where I start off with a weather report. I am getting too predictable. Next week? Not a peep about the temperature, I promise.
