What are you up to this week? We’re grateful for a slight respite from the July heat thanks to a little bit of a cold front blowing through (I walked to the library yesterday afternoon without feeling like I was swimming through humidity!). Hoping these sweet breezes stay put through the weekend! Do you have any fun plans? Enjoy the rest of your work week, and here are some links to check out…
