    You look terrific and the recipes sound great. Have a great 4th.

    I like the new hair cut, looks so nice and casual for summer. I can’t wait to see how you style it for a more “formal” look. I always liked your short hair cut as it could be so casual one time and when brushed back for a more dressed up look, it was stunning. .

    I have to save this post for the pie recipes. I love them both. Peaches and blueberry! When my mom made peach cobbler, she always added blueberries, so I do as well. Yum! And I am still cutting rhubarb from our plants, so this would be perfect. Thank you!

    You look nice and cool, like your haircut, I will be making the peach pie, looks good. Our family lives in upstate N.Y. and we are living in N.C., miss my family, your lucky yours is nearby. Happy 4th.

    I love gingham and you paired it with my favorite new neutral. Olive green. It looks great. We usually have a Karoke party around the pool while we watch the young ones in the family swimming. Tons of food. Will be a come down with just us, hamburger cookout, with blue bell ice cream and brownies. Your pies look wonderful though.

    Hi Beth
    We need an update on your haircut !
    Have you decided to go for a longer style.
    If so, how are you managing the grow out
    process?

    I think Oscar is smiling in the second-to-the-last photo!

    I have porch envy! Everything looks so inviting!. …. and your upper arms look great.

    Thanks for all the informative and entertaining emails. I really look forward to Fridays!

  8. Margaret Daniel says:

    Oh, you’ve twisted my arm. Now I feel I MUST make that blueberry peach pie. I hope it turns out as good as it looks. Btw I love these segments. I’ve just never commented before. Thank you for your hard work on these. Cheers!

    Blue Hawaiians, that brings back memories. They were the favorite drink of one of my sorority sisters. We’d occasionally have these “progressive” parties that involved rotating from room to room (total of 5-6), having a cocktail at each room, and she always made Blue Hawaiians and we’d all have blue stained tongues for the rest of the night.

    I just bought this top – perhaps the last one – and I absolutely love it! I’ve recently lost about 40lbs and am down to a size 14/large in regular sizes. I was a die-hard Talbots plus size girl but you inspired me to check out Ann Taylor and I’ve picked up some cute things. I love how her flowy tops hang – too often those can look like a maternity top!
    BTW – I pair this top with the “Wit and Wisdom” jeans you featured a couple weeks back.
    Have a lovely weekend!

  11. Suzanne Smith says:

    Both of the pies look scrumptious. I love a crumble, any time, and the peach and blueberries sounds heavenly as well. My boyfriend never met a pie he didn’t like, so I’ll have to give these both a try as I know he’d enjoy both. Love the soft gingham look in the top. Today was very hot but surprisingly not humid here, and I’m loving it. I have a feeling I won’t be able to say that soon, knowing our summers. Your OOTD would have been perfect here. Thanks for the recipes! Happy weekend!

  12. Lisa says:

    Very nice outfit-loved the top! I actually loved the entire outfit. I sure wish I could cook a pie or a crumble. Is it me or has Oscar grown?

  13. Gwen Marie Ewing says:

    Yum on the pies and drink🥧🍹 But please tell me where you got the flag tower!! I’m loving it and gotta have it 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

    I have those Sam Edelman sandals
    Do you have trouble walking in them
    I cant seem to keep them on my feet , should have returned them but as you know it’s a good color , so thought I was over keeping something that just looked good 🤪

  15. Georgia Peach says:

    Great recipes! Just in time for the 4th.
    Too bad the top is sold out. So cute.
    Hey,how are those bangs workin for ya?
    I tried mine a little shorter and they drove me flat out crazy. What to do w/them?!
    I immediately grew my longer curtain bangs out🤣
