happy friday the 13th ?! spooky.
the kids are deep in play, i’m by the fire knocking out life admin, and i’ve finally accepted something about how i work: fiction needs uninterrupted space. leaving the house. headphones on. full brain immersion.
but this? this is my sweet spot.
so consider this a little weekly recap — a mini post i can tuck into real life. what i loved this week, what i’m eyeing, what i cooked, read, wore, bookmarked, thought about twice.
light, easy, and consistent. my favorite kind of rhythm.
🎧 what i’ve been listening to
good hang with jonathan groff, i loled many times. i love them both so much.
a day in her life with sofi madison, i always love these episodes which is why the host, Ellie - A Day In Her Life, was an early interview for she bet on herself. sofi is also an old friend and it was so fun to hear about her days and very similar stage of life (hi Sofi !)
ariana grande on repeat. i loved wicked, but i’m happy it’s over and she can get back to the studio.
