Sunday Somethings

Sunday Somethings

Hello, Sunday.

Well, March definitely came in like a lion in my house. I came back from my California adventures with a cold. I suspect it came from either the snotty kid sitting next to me on my flight or the cold and wet temperatures that befell us at Disneyland. Either way, it’s been a rough week.

I can’t complain really, since my immune system has been holding strong on me for over a year. It was time.

Now that I’m on the mend, I’m looking forward to all the exciting and delicious things happening this month, and eyeing a quick trip to London at the end of it for Easter.  Good things, all.

Let’s see what caught my eye this week:

With so much bad in the world, it’s heartwarming to see stories of good. And selfless good deeds (which, despite the feelings of one Pheobe Buffay, do exist).  And paying it forward.

I feel this. Does anyone else. Your cloud storage is FULL.

I love a good list and as a hopeless romantic I am totally someone that for years has gotten on board with TV couples, rooting for them to succeed and my own heart breaking when they don’t. I agree with a lot of these but I think Booth/Brennan from Bones and Donna/Harvey from Suits were definitely omissions (also showing my own bias for procedural dramedies).

The eclipse is coming! My friend V and I already have our watch spot plotted – we’re heading to Toledo for the day where the view of this phenomena should be perfecto.  If you’re lucky, you could find yourself on this flight. Are you in the zone?

It’s still hot chocolate season in these parts and I do love a good one – and the ritual of it.  I’ve got a few choices here on the site should you be in the mood.

As summer pro tennis is about to get lit, any fans out there will love this ditty.

This is the Sunday we all lose sleep. Is springing forward a tradition we should keep? Apparently only 1/3 of the world’s nations do it. Here’s why the US does

I am so out of touch that I didn’t even know this is a thing. Why on God’s green Earth would you dare ask the internet “how old do I look?”  Asking for trouble for sure – simmer down now.

In light of International Women’s Day, let’s take a sec to appreciate how in 2023, girls truly ran the world.  Taylor. Beyonce. Barbie.  The economic power women hold is staggering- but why aren’t we taken seriously? I loved this week’s podcast by one of my faves- it’s worth a listen: Women in Pop Culture Saved the Economy—Why Are They Still the Punchline?

That’s all folks. Have a great week!
