All the Frills: Zoom Party

Eleanor turned 3 on June 20 and, while an in-person party wasn’t really possible, I still think we did a nice job of decorating and hosting a little Zoom party for her. Honestly though, how is she this old already?

The Cape I Didn't Need (Is There Such a Thing?)

So I broke down in terms of online shopping and ordered a cape blazer – it’s suede and I both 100% did not need it and 100% adore it. Sigh. I need to get myself in check over here.

Lacy Afternoons

I really love this new dress that I purchased online and wish I actually had somewhere to wear it, beyond a quick trip into my office. Sigh. Well, it’s first up on my list to wear out for dinner and drinks when that’s possible again.

Feature: If you haven’t watched The 13th on Netflix, you really, really should. I watched it last year and rewatched it recently and it is incredibly insightful and educational. You should also read this piece on reparations, by Nikole Hannah-Jones, who is one of the people behind the brilliant 1619 Project (the associated podcast which I mentioned in a previous post).
