This week Melanie shares about her pool day with Caroline, I talk about my weekend with Lucy (she's really warming up), and we both have watched way more TV than is probably wise.

We also discuss what could potentially be an exciting new angle for SEC Media Days coverage (you'll understand why that's a pun when you listen), and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

On this episode I give an update on post-surgery Lucy, Melanie relays the details of a Lionel Richie concert, and we speculate maybe way too much about what Lionel's health concerns might be. We also talk about Melanie and Caroline's great decorative achievements with a gallery wall.

On top of that, we discuss a current frustration I have with Amazon, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

This week Melanie and I are both awash in the most tender feelings about friendship, so Melanie shares all about her weekend at the lake with friends - and I share (part of) a poem, written back in the year of our Lord 1990, that Emma Kate recently discovered when she was cleaning out her parents' house.

Also, Mel tells us about spending a day at the Hotel Emma pool with Caroline, we discuss that we're both in a rut with earrings, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.
