Labor Day Weekend Links + Likes
Happy Friday and happy Labor Day weekend everyone! Go ahead and count me among those in shock it's already September. This summer flew by! Now if only the winter months would be so fleeting...at least we get all the holidays between now and then.
We went to Harlow's school orientation yesterday and she was uncharacteristically shy and uncooperative. Don't you just love when your kid goes rogue on you in public?? She eventually loosened up a bit and we went back to see her teachers again and she did better the second go-round. Praying for a smooth transition when she starts school next week.
We're sticking around Asheville this weekend, hosting Harlow's Yammy, watching football, and fitting in a few of the fun things on my wish list. I'm always a tad ambitious trying to do it all on long weekends, especially at the end of summer! But I mean, is it really? We're still going to have nice weather for awhile and it only gets better as it cools off a little.
Anyhoo, here are a few things to get you in a weekend state of mind and the scoop on some of the best Labor Day sales happening now on the interwebs.
Goop just named Asheville one of its four most underrated food cities in the US. They name their favorite local eateries plus recommendations on hotels and sightseeing.
