A Letter from the Editor

Follow Us into Summer

Mon Chéri • Cheery treats put cherries front and center, reminding us why they’re the darlings of the dog days of summer.

Let’s Go to the Pool • WHETHER YOU’RE IN THE MOOD TO DIVE IN HEAD FIRST OR FLOAT THE DAY AWAY, HERE ARE SOME FAVORITE FINDS FOR MAKING A SPLASH ALL SUMMER LONG.

Say It with Scallops • Set a striking, playful tone in any space with this timeless motif.

Visual Poetry • CYANOTYPE ARTIST SARAH BOURNE RAFFERTY FEELS WHOLE WHEN SHE SLOWS DOWN LONG ENOUGH TO TAKE NOTE OF THE WORLD AROUND HER—AND INVITES US TO DO THE SAME.

Aloe Vera • THE MEDICINAL PERKS OF A POPULAR HOUSEPLANT GIVE ROOT TO HEALING AT HOME.

Tell Your Tale • FLAGS ARE SYMBOLIC STORYTELLERS. WHAT WAS ONCE RESERVED FOR FAR-REACHING ADVENTURES NOW HAS A PLACE RIGHT AT HOME.

Words That Shape Us • Noticing the ripple effects of the words we give, receive, and believe

Snackable, Packable Sides • THE TABLE WITH THESE STAPLES IS THE PLACE TO BE.

A Note from Jo: Take the Reins

When We Look Out Upon the Landscape of Our Lives

Make It Mediterranean • a feel-good meal inspired by an odyssey of flavors

On Solid Ground • AFTER YEARS OF MOVING, A FAMILY FINALLY SETTLES IN CALIFORNIA AND TURNS A NEW BUILD INTO A SPACE FOR CULTIVATING BEAUTY AND CONNECTION.

Natural Appeal • A keen eye and a sure hand can turn an ordinary landscape into a rich and colorful meadow.

Behind the Seams

Three Scoops for Summer • It’s only human, the lengths we’d go to for ice cream. Taking the quickest route to the local shop. Gladly braving the brain freeze from a milkshake or malt. Delightfully going over the top with sundae toppings just because it’s a Tuesday. And here’s the thing: That sweet, iconic taste of summer is yours for the savoring. Get creative with store-bought ice cream or try your hand at homemade. After all, this is the season to embrace life’s simple, pint-size pleasures.

Like Yesterday • Just because we grow up doesn’t mean the magic of summer fades.
