Yesterday was one of those days where spring makes a tiny appearance to give you hope that one day it will arrive for good. We opened up the windows and the kitties enjoyed a day of sniffs and stretching out in the sun. The winter hasn’t been particularly harsh, but the recent polar vortex was brutal, so it’s nice to see little signs that the thaw is on its way. With that in mind, here are a few great things…
-Newsletters are back, y’all! Some of my favorite writers end up right in my inbox and I absolutely love it. Nothing like a waterfall of awesomeness in your inbox. My favorites include Girls’ Night In (self-care, unwinding, mental health), Roxane Gay’s The Audacity (incredible writing, book club!), William Fleitch (life, sports, movies and don’t let the sports scare you off), Becoming Minimalist (how to live a simpler life), and Sam Irby (her Judge Mathis recaps make my day every single time.
-I have been living in this sweatshirt.
-The books I’ve loved the most so far this year have been a little different from a typical novel. This anthology and this cookbook are both stunning.
-Busy Philipps is one of my favorites. So it only makes sense that this Spotify playlist made up of songs she’s used in her Instastories hits the spot every time.
-Still looking for a mask you’ll love? The Atoms mask is so comfy, doesn’t fog up my glasses and can be tossed right in the wash.
-In February of last year, I would have scoffed at joining TikTok. Now I’m that old millennial who sends her favorites to her friends. Join me?
-This old millennial also finally has a skincare routine. I did some research (some on TikTok even) and found this line that I use morning and night. After a couple of weeks of skin purging (yikes!), my face skin has never been happier.
What has you excited for spring?
