LOUISVILLE.
We are heading back to the farm today.....and we are so ready. We had a perfect vacation: plenty of relaxing, over-the-top amazing food, making lots of new friends and visiting with all our favorite people. But home. HOME. There is nothing like it. This whole trip was basically a giant food tour - from one restaurant to one coffee shop to one donut shop to the next - our poor bellies are more than ready to be back to a diet of simple veggies. We are eager to be eating our own good food again, to be physically active again, very ready to squeeze our big pup!Here are some photos from the weekend in Louisville. Once again, the city did not disappoint us. We will write some more about our time in Louisville later, but right now - we are heading south to Bugtussle.- Hannah.
So many murals in this city.
This shop is (and smells) incredible.
Holy cow, Holy Grale - you are wonderful. 
Best hosts ever. 
Best baby ever. 
Best husband ever.
Eiderdown continues to be perfect. 
Please & Thank You boasts the best chocolate chip cookie in Louisville - I won't argue with that.
An antique shop in a warehouse - we spent hours and hours getting lost.
Up before the sun (per usual) on a rainy Sunday at Sunergos.
Brunch of a lifetime.
SO LONG, LEX.
We are leaving Lexington today and heading to Louisville for the weekend. Louisville is one of our favorite cities, and we are excited to visit with friends (old and new!), eat lots of amazing food, hopefully trying some new places but probably ending up at our old faithfuls.But of course, before we left we had to visit Spalding's Bakery. It was literally the only thing on our list that was an absolute must. Spalding's was a tradition in my house growing up, and I happily shared it with Jesse once we were married. Although I don't eat much of them anymore, I would consider myself a donut connoisseur - and Spalding's donuts are the best donuts. Definitively. There is nothing like them.If you live even remotely anywhere near Kentucky, it is worth your time. Seriously! Spalding's isn't a hip coffee shop selling cronuts, it is a bakery that sells only regular glazed donuts since 1929. It is perfect. OBVIOUSLY not a part of a balanced nutritious breakfast, but a very occasional treat? Yes, please.
*We did NOT eat all dozen of these. We could have, but we didn't.*
THIS & THAT.
Some random photos from the past (vacation!) week in Lexington.
Yes, we brought our cat on vacation. Yes, she is super helpful when trying to finish a book.
ONE BIG THUMBS UP FOR YOU NORTH LIME! 
Finally purchased this gorgeous book by this amazing human.
If I had all the monies I would buy all the books in the children's section of Morris Book Shop.
The best, weirdest, and most wonderful store - SCOUT.
Wine + Market for lunch yesterday.
As usual, it didn't disappoint.
These are just a few of all the lovely places we have been this week. We are having SUCH a nice, relaxing vacation so far - thank you for all of your tips and suggestions!- Hannah.
BIRTHDAY WEEKEND NUMBER 2.
Lastweekend we celebrated another birthday - this time JESSE'S! Saturday is always a crazy busy day with our Nashville market, but we managed to cram it even fuller.We met up with dear friends for burgers and beer at Burger Up in 12 South, and then spent the evening rejoicing in the wedding of lovely Brooke and Casey, farmers and butchers and fermenters and all-around amazing folks. Their wedding was simple and joy-filled and held at Sulphur Creek Farm. We had so much fun and were up WAY past our bedtime, but it was all worth it.- Hannah.
