In this week’s Love List, I’m sharing a peak into what was eaten practically everyday in my childhood and the team shares a bit about their summer must-haves, best wines and comfy pants for all of those summer road trips.
- My (European) parents ate/eat a grainy piece of bread with cheese pretty much every day for lunch. It’s what I grew up eating. I still enjoy it thoroughly and get made fun of in a lighthearted way, so when I read The Worlds Happiest People Eat This Every Day I totally laughed and nodded.
- The bread that I grew up eating is called German Fitness Bread.
German Fitness Bread | Alpine Cooking | Anthropologie dress - A cookbook that is a travel book/cookbook/inspiration is this beautiful Alpine Cooking one.
- This embroidered dress has European summer vibes to me and is so beautiful – I can’t decide blue or white!?
Bridget’s Picks

- I got these beach cup holders before a family vacation to the beach. I hate when sand gets in my drink and these were a good start at a solution! Double win; the kids actually also used them as snack cups when we were at the cottage. HA!
- We are still (if you’ve been reading for awhile, this is has been a LONG process) remodeling our house and I just discovered this program. I am very bad at imagining what the house/rooms might look like so my husband and I are thinking about using this program to get everything just right.
- I know that I am incredibly late to the game, but I’m pretty thrifty and $36 always seemed a bit expensive for sunscreen to me, BUT I have to say I’m a believer now. Supergoop! Glow Screen really is all it’s cracked up to be!
Alyssa’s Picks

- I’m a BIG fan of Trader Joe’s and a big fan of wine so I found this fun list of the best wines at Trader Joe’s!
- Laundry is by far my least favorite household chore so this laundry hacks list was actually pretty interesting!
- A friend shared this site with me! You can search for trails by city, park or trail name. All the trails are verified and reviewed by others.
- I ordered these pants in black and they are SO comfy! I wore them for a road trip and they were perfect! They are also moisture wicking and are made of quick dry fabric so they would be great for outdoor stuff too.
- This has been my favorite dinner lately (I’ve been lazy and resort to frozen meals sometimes!) and I love to add sorghum to it which is similar to quinoa and I also add avocado!
The Team’s Favorite Item – Pens

Phi
- These luxe gel pens by Poppin have been a favorite, they’re so pretty too and write so well!
Bridget
- I love a good Sharpie felt tip pen. I actually got a set of these for a high school graduation gift; I thought it was weird at the time, but now I totally get it! They write so smoothly and come in tons of fabulous fun colors!
Alyssa
- I’ve had these pens for a few years now and I love them plus they have fun colors!
