This week has been hectic both at work and in my personal life, but there have been so many things that have delighted and pleased me. Here are a few:
- I am fascinated that such a thing as a happiness expert exists (I’m a fan, to be clear), and I enjoyed this article on their daily habits.
- Roxane Gay is saying goodbye to her column Work Friend, and she wrote a beautiful send-off to it.
- Dorie Greenspan of World Peace Cookies fame (and baking in general – the cookies are just how I was introduced to her) wrote a lovely piece on getting out of a personal rut/funk entitled “A book that’s bigger than you are.”
- Speaking of books, my favorite book I’ve read this week is The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street by Helene Hanff. It’s the follow-up to 84, Charing Cross Road, and it is just as charming.
- I love the Gaia Music Collective (I want to sing with 100+ people!!) but I especially loved this arrangement. I played this song for my piano recital the same month my childhood friend Ginger died, and it always reminds me of her.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend full of all your favorite things and people!
