Photo Week #26

Hello! Happy July! I hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July weekend, watching Hamilton. I enjoyed my viewing of Hamilton very much, and cried in the same places I cried while watching it live.

My birthday was celebrated with a lot of good food, thoughtful gifts, and pretty flowers. We decided to get the berry chantilly cake we had for our wedding as a birthday cake, and honestly I wouldn’t be mad if we decided that it wasn’t just a wedding/birthday cake but also a normal celebration cake too. It’s definitely super rich and I can’t eat too much of the frosting but… it’s still so delicious.

I recently made the decision to upgrade our morning coffee routines and took the plunge to buy a coffee grinder! I also attempted to make pourover coffees for the first time this past weekend and failed in my attempts (aka suuuuuper sour coffee.) Goal this month: improve my pourover technique and find that zen in making coffee every morning…
