Hey, friends! Our casual Friday this week is SUPER random. I hope you don’t mind! It’s just a bunch of things we’ve been up to these past two (or three?) weeks.
Met up with Dani Hampton after, I dunno, eight years of online friendship. It was way too short but still amazing to connect in person and share a delicious meal at Avo.
I was trying to start a new volume of our Nashville guide, but the pics came out a little funky and blown out. Oh well, we’ll go back and try again soon. :))
The kimchi spring rolls were SO SO good.
Emma cooking up a Friendsgiving feast at my house. I can’t wait for her to come back in January to shoot the cookbook!
For the past three months, we’ve been testing our upcoming app. This pic is from when we still lived in Springfield of Jeremy looking at the first test builds. It is just a HUGE part of my life right now and I cannot wait to share it with you SOON.
Just a stupid pic to say, “Hey! I don’t take myself too seriously.” ๐
It’s getting cold, you guys!!!
Nowย Emma wants to share some peeks of how the ABM office in Springfield is shaping up!!!
We’re always talking about how Elsie, Laura and I work from our homes now. But, of course, that’s not everyone at ABM. I thought it would be fun to show you guys the new loft office that Trey, Jacki and Philip work from. They’ve been moved in for a couple months, but we aren’t “done” with this space by any means. ๐
The loft offices are located above the Golden Girl Rum Club (our soon-to-be-open downtown bar). My business partners and I bought the building and we share this space among our other ventures (we all own other businesses too).
It’s an older building and I love the high ceilings and wood floors. We painted everything white along with a few other updates before we moved in and it made the space feel HUGE. The room that is essentially the ABM headquarters is toward the back and has such beautiful light, it’s a shame we don’t photograph in that space as often as our last office. Trey built his own desk (in the first photo above).
The hallway that leads back to this room has bike racks, a coffee cart, an old vintage sign we found downstairs, and (my favorite part!) a TON of Rogan’s show posters that he’s designed over the years. They are so coolโit’s like a little gallery in our hallway. Hope you enjoyed this peek into the new ABM officesโthanks for letting us share!
Have a great weekend! xx- Elsie + Emma

Old building + high ceilings + wood floors = ideal space! It sounds like things are going well for the whole team. I enjoy following your creative journey especially with this sort of post!
These are my very favorite posts you do… totes
LOVE!! You should totally do a virtual tour of ABM offices though!
I like that idea! We may just have to do that sometime. ๐

I love to see a bit of ABM backstages in this post, I would be very interested to know how you work far away from each other. An app? It’s such a wonderful project, I’m very excited to discover it.
And those kimchi spring rolls looks like perfection !
Wishing you a great week-end !

I love casual Friday’s ๐ hey Elsie I was thinking when I saw the picture of Emma in your kitchen that on the bottom shelf right in front of where Emma is standing would be the perfect place for a cookbook stand ๐ just an idea ๐

Hi, just thought if you make the trim of your open shelving black (or any other bold color), all the things on it will stand out even more!!
Thank you for bringing Casual Fridays back. It’s my favorite feature on the sight and I loved the random pictures. ๐
Oooh thanks for the update!
Can’t wait to find out more about your app! ๐
Is an update for the android photo app in the works? Or plans to roll out a new one so it can be updated? Fingers crossed!!
Looks like a nice way to start the weekend.
I, on the other hand, spent all my Saturday in pyjamas watching movies, not quite blogger material haha

I love the Rogan Show posters gallery wall (along with everything else in that wonderful office space!) do you guys have a tutorial up for that?
YES that keyboard cover is so cute! I would like to know as well.
Did you guys sell the house your offices used to be in? Just curious!
Love these posts!
Emma, I love that granny square sweater! Where did you ever find that?
Love Trey’s desk! Casual Fridays are so fun. I’m glad you keep doing them here and there!
