Good Morning from Miami!
Michael and I are currently at the Gale Hotel in Miami Beach starting our day with a little sightseeing before heading to the airport. We depart this afternoon for Europe, but I still wanted to share an abbreviated Journal post before we leave!

This will be my last Journal post for a few weeks (I don’t plan on spending much time online while we’re away), but I will still have a few other posts scheduled while we are gone so keep checking back.
Here’s what I’ve been reading this week:
Travel
Finally, “cash back” will be an option in France. So long as your home cards work, this may be a great option for avoiding ATM fees.
An interesting battle is brewing on some of Florida’s most famous beaches…

Food
Have an excess of the end-of-summer fruit bounty? This clafoutis looks beautiful and delicious.
Last week I mentioned the return of GBBO/GBBS to Netflix, but did you know there was a version for U.S. audiences? A couple of seasons aired, but after allegations were made against one of the judges, the rest of the third season didn’t air. However, the competition had already taken place and a winner was selected. Here’s an interesting look into the story that remains.

Life & Style
Regardless of whether or not you’ve seen the show The Good Place (but honestly you should just go watch it), this interview with Jameela Jamil (no longer available) is worth the read/listen.
You’ve seen that Instagram account that shows that we’re all taking the same photos, but did you know we’ve all been wearing the same things as well?
Paige’s Fall capsule wardrobe has me dreaming of Pumpkin Spice Lattes (and I don’t even like PSL!) and all things Fall (site closed).
Leah conducted an eye-opening interview about representation in ethical fashion over on her blog. I don’t often talk about these issues because I’m afraid I won’t get the words quite right, and it’s so frustrating. I’m grateful for those out there who can put their thoughts into words in a way I have not yet mastered.
That’s a wrap! You’ll still see a few posts here over the coming weeks, but I’ll be updating Instagram daily.
Are you off to anywhere fun this weekend?
