While chatting with my sister this morning, I remembered this classic middle-of-the-date questionnaire, and it made us both laugh. (#3. When the bartender came over, did you put on a little voice, or do you just talk like that?) — Joanna
PSA: Old Navy dresses are really good right now. They have simple silhouettes, which make them feel timeless. I’m especially into this easy denim dress, which has Frank & Eileen vibes. — Joanna
Tomatoes are bursting right now — what is everyone doing with them? Here are five ideas, if you’d like inspiration: clockwise, my sister’s grilled cheese salad, lazy man’s ratatouille, a perfect tomato sandwich and corn and tomato stew with sausages. — Joanna
Even though Emiliano is my second baby, when he wasn’t sleeping or eating, I still found myself googling “what do you do with a baby?” Cue the Lovevery play kits — have you tried them? Every kit has beautiful toys to support a baby’s development toward each milestone, plus a guide that’s filled with playtime ideas and explains how each toy helps your baby learn new skills. Right now, Emiliano is into The Senser Play Kit, and I love seeing him hold himself up longer during tummy time while watching this tummy time wobbler and practice grabbing and pulling the cloths out of this magical tissue box. You can find all the play kits here, which have toys for newborns up to four-year-olds. — Jannelle
Feeling excited about Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’s vice president pick! We’ve been getting great messages from CoJ readers: “I live in Minnesota, and he is genuinely great,” says Erin. Adds Josie: “As Minnesota residents, we LOOOOOOOOVE Tim Walz! So thrilled!” Coolest of all, from Rachel: “Mr. Walz was my high school geography teacher and led the football team to win state during my senior year. I totally teared up this morning.” — our Cup of Jo team
