Hi, hello. Welcome to August’s Soupe du Jour, our monthly round-up of what we’ve been reading, watching, doing, wearing, and more. Can you believe that it’s already August?!

We’ve still got time for a few CANNON BALLS, so let’s jump in.

Hello from the past. Hadley here, writing a few weeks before maternity leave. I hope you all have been having a great summer and I look forward to my full on return this fall! Our house had a low entrance. Big wooden beams crosshatched the ceiling before the house swooped up into a barn-like architecture. Across those beams hung my father’s collection of hats.

Hello, TOGS. Welcome to July’s Soupe du Jour, our monthly round-up of what we’ve been doing, reading, cooking, wearing, and more. Like the midsummer sun, this month’s Soupe is hot. It’s fun. It’s creatively, intellectually, and possibly even spiritually stimulating. So! Without further ado, let’s dig in.

Hi Toggsers, Hadley here with a little update from maternity leave. At 5:48pm on July 3rd, Lazare Michael Cadot arrived in the world, pulled straight out of my core. We are deeply in love. You were here for the last nine months but we didn’t yet know you. Didn’t know if you were a boy or a girl.
