Five Things

In an effort to savor the final, hot days of summer, I've been trying to get outside more. This weekend was spent at the farmer's market, gardening outside, lounging by the pool, and hiking/swimming with Grits. Here are some other things I enjoyed:

{Trying a variation of these mushroom and garlic pork chops}

{A gorgeous view from a friend's backyard}

{Grits' first haircut. He stayed clean for all of 24 hours}

{Dining al fresco with bubbly and a great magazine}
