From Where We Stand: Our Weekend in Photos

A good gray paint, a DIY beach fort, encounters of the goat kind, and more.

A living room slowwwwly coming together, and an upcoming staycation to think through all the details (and re-read all of our Home posts!). —Kenzi

 

genius chocolate loaf cake

This is Nigella's Genius chocolate loaf cake, made with the Yemen La Boîte Spiced Chocolate Chips we carry in the Shop. I had never made this cake before, which I was reminded of as I was paging through my mother's copy of Genius Recipes. So glad I finally did—it's so squidgy and perfect, and the hint of spice from the chips was really tasty! —Merrill

 

clara 

Here's Clara contemplating feeding the goats at a farm near my parents' house in Maine (she ultimately decided it was too risky and commanded that her father do it instead). —Merrill

 

wampum

My friend Santiago collected these treasures (round rocks and the smoothed purple clam shells that are used to make wampum beads) on an excursion we took to Ho Hum beach on Fire Island. Glued to a piece of foam core or even floated and framed, they might end up as wall art. —Amanda

 

beach tent

This weekend I learned the beach isn't far from New York City—and that a fort is essential for this pale city kid to survive said beach. (The little crab shell on the right stick was my touch.) —Ali
