Intentions for the Week- Week 33 in 2021
Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 32
We’re starting to get smokey skies here. It made the sunset so bizarre.
This nail polish is bringing me so much joy this week.
Breakfast rice is delicious.
I watched Roadrunner (Anthony Bourdain documentary) and craved ramen all week as a result.
The last of the sunflowers. I think I have one more arrangement to make before they’re gone.
The other day I posted a photo from this wonderful ice cream shop on our trip back east asking which flavor you’d pick and was kind of shocked by how many people said Coffee Oreo Ice Cream because I didn’t even SEE THAT FLAVOR. I was paralyzed by all of the choices!

(For the record, I tried a scoop of Samoa and Biscoff & Coffee)
I probably would have picked Coffee Oreo Ice cream if they let me try it! This whole COVID thing has ruined the ice cream sample game. *big sigh*
Do you know who loves both coffee ice cream and cookies and cream? COOPER! I figured we should celebrate the last week of Summer together at home with ice cream that everyone wanted to try.
MY FRIENDS, this recipe did not disappoint. My child gave me an unsolicited hug yesterday morning because I am awesome and make him Coffee Oreo Ice Cream just for fun! How awesome is that?!
Intentions for the Week- Week 32 in 2021
Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 31
We stayed near a field of sunflowers during our stay in Cooperstown. It was magical passing by it every day.
Trip to the Hall of Fame! I forgot how much I love being in museums. It was my first visit to one in way over a year.
So many fun things to look at in that building. I did a treasure hunt with my 8-year-old friend, Shiloh.
Post-game chat. (THEY TOOK FOREVER)
I am still thinking about this noodle salad from Upstate BBQ I ate for two meals.
The only drawback of our week away was that Cooper’s baseball schedule kind of messed up our meal schedule.
So much history back east.
In between games pizza.
I watched so many baseball games in one week!
Watching him play first base.
Nervous energy on the stands channeled through pipe cleaner art!
I made a butterfly…
And a flower!
A storm was happening nearby.
Cooper’s team stayed in bunk #5 (Joe DiMaggio bunk)
My father-in-law came to Cooper’s games!
Clouds were amazing all week.
Night games were pretty fun.
I shared pictures of my July spread from our Airbnb.
Cooper’s team made it to the championships at Cooperstown Dreams Park
There were fireworks and it was live streaming online with commentary.
#12
We didn’t win but we played so hard all week! GOOD JOB, BOMBERS!!!
Camping out at a used bookstore in Cooperstown.
It’s such a cute town.
Drove to spend the last few days of our trip with my in-laws!
Casey’s grandmother made this rug and my father-in-law framed it. It made me happy that they had a cat that looked like Huggy named Boo (that’s what my Mom called Cooper).
Casey’s Dad is a prolific gardener.
I fell in love with his yard.
I had the best time talking to him about plants.
CHARMING, isn’t it??!!
It felt very magical.
He also has an incredible brook.
We went on a hike together. Cooper will find a bat out of any stick.
LOVE LIFE.
It was so nice to watch him play in the forest.
SLUG!
The east coast is filled with bugs!
And beauty.
This butterfly has been through a lot.
Casey’s step-mom made a wonderful dinner.
His Dad made us a fruit salad.
Water healing.
Wearing long sleeves in the heat cuz BUGS.
Checking out the morning light.
An incredible moment.
I was SO HAPPY this beauty hung out with me for 5 minutes.
Three generations of Benjamins.
I love watching my husband daydream.
We had an incredible lunch at Max’s Oyster Bar before we left.
LATE NIGHT FLIGHT HOME!
My dahlias started blooming while I was away!
