HEY APW,
Cheers to the long weekend! I hope you’re spending it relaxing poolside, or eeking out the last few days of summer (possibly before heading back to work or school. I know we’ve got a lot of educators and academics in the crowd.) As for me, I’m going to my first wedding solo tomorrow and bringing this with me as my guide. And since this wedding happens to be in Maine (aka my home state) and it’s almost fall, I’m hoping to partake in some of the first days of Shipyard Pumpkinhead. Because you can keep your pumpkin spice latte. But pumpkin beer? Mmmmm…
And with that, we’re cutting out of here early today and hoping you’re doing the same! But for those of you still stuck at your desks for a few more hours, it’s your happy hour, so get wild.
CHEERS,
MADDIE
