Ooolala: Summer Garden Pasta - Made this tonight after Mike had worked a 14 hour day. It was a hit, and is definitely going into the rotation.
Barefoot Contessa can do no wrong! I love Ina’s recipes so much- this one included. This is a light pasta for summer that involves no cooking (besides boiling noodles)- perfect for hot days. Another bonus: leftovers are fabulous cold from the fridge.

When it’s hot and humid outside, there’s no other option: You must pull your hair back. While low ponies and messy buns are easy-breezy, they’re also a bit bleh—not the fashion statement you want to make, trust us. That’s why we’re big proponents of hair accessories. They easily spruce up your look and often require little to no effort. Case in point: Our latest office-wide obsession is the oversize metal barrette. A cinch to use, these jumbo clips are fun and slightly kitchy—in the best way possible. Gold is super sleek, but we’re particularly fond of the green since it’s a nice bright contrast to almost everything in our closets.
There are so many awesome looks you can create with these barrettes, so we thought it would be fun to showcase three of our favorite styles on different staffers.
Graphic designer Ally has shoulder-length, slightly wavy hair. She decided to do a sweet side twist, which would even work with shorter, chin-length hair.
THIS HAS TO BE A JOKE. No freakin way.
When exposed to air, ice cream quickly develops unappealing ice crystals and freezer burn. To cut down on air exposure, try this method (which also frees up freezer space): As the ice cream is eaten, cut off the empty part of the container with scissors or a knife. Then just replace the lid and return the container to the freezer.
Genius!

This has amused me all day.
“Pantsuits cost a pretty penny-make one using any leftover hair you’ve cut or lost naturally. Create something made entirely out of you.”
“I ask that my body be used as your asylum. Let my shoulders be solid earth for you to stand on; my ribcage, a canopy from rain.”
“A mission, Tildren. Send a kind @ to someone you’ve been out of touch with. I recently rekindled my friendship with a box turtle, Lugot.”
I just love how bizarre it is. Reminds me of things Karl Lagerfeld actually says.
I’m going to buy a pair of white shorts and rock this outfit with my ”j.crew” bubble necklace ALL summer long. Fair warning to my friends that will be seeing this often.

Got a black jersey blazer from Zara two months ago… It is my favorite thing ever. Seriously, you cannot help but look chic in it.
