Hi there, Jess here. Hope your Friday is going well. It’s been a busy week over here in Portland, but we snuck in a few morning beach trips and maybe one or two trips to some donut shops.
What I’ve been cooking: Pesto Pasta! It’s the perfect summer pasta and the kids love it. I don’t really use a recipe anymore but I’m sure the NYT has a great one to reference.
What I bought: If you plan on being outside with food this summer might I suggest you get yourself some nets to cover your food. They are the best, these fold up when not in use which comes in very handy.
What I’ve been eyeing: I’ve always been a fan of Raven Roxanne and I think I might be ready to pull the plug on one of her pieces.
What I’ve been reading: Yellowface, was my recent read I couldn’t put down. I was feeling a void after reading Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow and this definitely helped. Worth a read.
What I’ve been listening to: Men I Trust is on constant repeat over here and I’m ready for a new album. Really liked the Ring of Past release!
I’m happy to announce that I’m starting to book mini-sessions for fall! These sessions are 20 minutes and cost less than a normal session with me. They are great for maternity, newborn, engagement, and families!
