1. OMG this had me laughing so hard: Vegetables Throw A Party; Poor tomato.

Bridget’s Picks

1. My absolute favorite go-to housewarming gift for anyone are these tea towels from Honey + Hank.  First, you’ll always use a tea towel so it makes a great gift and secondly, look closely at the designs on each towel.  They feature different states, giving this gift the perfect personal touch.
2. I just ran across this great female-owned, Wisconsin-based company called Siren Shrub.  For drinkers and non-drinkers alike, shrubs make a great replacement for alcohol and I must say that I am intrigued!
3. Summer is still very much here (even though back to school is on the mind) and I am loving the clean look of these shorts.  AND, they are only $10 right now!   And can I just say kudos to Wal-Mart for allowing a “pick your model” option so you can see how the clothing looks on a variety of sizes of people.

Alyssa’s Picks

1. I read this fun article on fun things to do inside when it’s too hot outside. One of them was this list from Uncommon Goods where you can sign up for a class and learn how to do all sorts of things like earring making, Scandinavian Baking, coffee tasting and SO many more!
2. I just finished watching this show on Netflix and it was really good! If you’re a fan of shows like One Tree Hill or Sweet Magnolias, I recommend this show!
3. Is it too early to talk Fall?! I’m going to say no and share the new Hearth and Hand Fall line. I’m loving these brass candles and floral wall decor!
