Hello, Monday.
I’m writing to you from Vail, Colorado where a group of my favorite friends and I have met to celebrate our dear Andouille’s jump into married life. The last wedding amongst us was twelve (!) years ago, and I don’t think any of us would have imagined that it’d take this long for the next to walk down the aisle. Forty sure looks different than 28, and we all had to shake our heads a little when we were no longer the ones to be closing down the dance floor.
The respite to the mountains was much needed, even though I was trekking through Andorra just a few weeks ago, the last few have been filled with moving into Mom’s and all the stress that comes with packing and shifting one’s life from one location to another. We’ve all been there- it’s a shared painful experience. I should be done in the next few days but boy, those last few are the worst.
Anyway, back to the task at hand. Some readings for your Monday morning.
My friend’s book comes out this week! If you love historical fiction, this ones for you!
Childhood memories, such gems sometimes, and no doubt good for a smile.
LOTS of convos about this topic this weekend as my friend group was comprised of mostly single, fabulous women. It’s really not our fault.
Thinkers vs. feelers. This relationship dynamic speaks to me and my group of friends. Are you a thinker or a feeler?
New ways to think about the pandemic…because the rules just keep changing, don’t they?
Travel rules keep changing, as does our comfort of it. If you are aching for a getaway, here are some options for fall.
Related: Acadia’s quiet side. As you may recall I was there this summer (as were many of you!) and I highly recommend it!
Nadiya’s win was one of my faves of the GBBO. Here’s how she’s taking British baking into the present.
Apple season, let’s go!
Have a good week!
