I have been following you for years and years – have both your cookbooks – but don’t think I have ever commented before! I am actually curious how you got your daughter’s name. My sister named her daughter (who is now 16) Emmilia and they named her after an Orthodox saint – St. Emmilia, the mother of a number of other canonized Orthodox saints. Wondered if you named yours after St. Emmilia or if you have a different story <3
Wow Jordan is already 1 month old, and I feel like he is always giving you some side eye, and ready to attack with his legs up, so adorable. Love the ring pop, she is the queen of accessorizing after all. Love the hydrangeas, they are the prettiest purple, and snapdragons are one of my favorite flowers. Oh and funnel cake for dinner, YUM!!
I did a total back garden redo last year…actually hired a gardener to help. I wanted it to be “hydrangea centric” as I so love them. I never realized how many different varieties there are. All that said, the blooms this year make the long wait so worth it. The garden is gorgeous with a mix of bloom types and colors ranging from vivid pink to blueish purple lace caps and mop heads. My favorite is a large variety called piniculata(sp?). It blooms white, slowly turns pink as the summer progresses and ends as red in the fall…so pretty.
Your children are soooooo adorable. Clearly they are happy, well loved, joyful children. Sweet little Jordan hit the sibling jackpot!
