Weekend Reads, No. 42

Wow, this weekend has been spectacular! Fall finally decided to say hello in Charleston and it feels as though it might stick around for a little. I spent much of the weekend outside soaking it all in. On Friday night, Edwin and I walked to The Ordinary for dinner and had the most delicious seafood dinner. On Saturday, I went to spin class at Charleston Revolution and then got ready and attended the Garden & Gun x Terrain Garden Lunch with my mom (you probably saw on my Insta Story!). It was in the backyard of a South of Broad Charleston home and truly spectacular. Edwin and I then joined some friends and hopped on the bikes for the afternoon with a pit stop at Husk Bar for an evening drink. We then grilled hamburgers and watched football all night. Today, we are attending the Mixson Grand Re-Opening party for a bloody mary bar this morning and an oyster roast this afternoon. I hope everyone has a beautiful Sunday! P.S. I discovered the Spotify playlist called “Happy Days” this week and it’s amazing!
