This yr, like final yr, my objective is to take some snapshots of my feminine buddies with their kids. I LOVE seeing mothers in images, and it’s enjoyable to attempt to seize candy, unposed moments. I’ve informed my pal Claire that I’d wish to be her private Pete Souza.
I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Woman, on courting after divorce, and omg I laughed 1000 instances. “I’ve by no means been pursued this a lot in my life,” she stated. “Boys, they by no means appreciated me rising up. Within the ’90s, in highschool, guys, they weren’t into charismatic A cups.” These days she solely dates divorced dads as a result of “I desire a man that’s been pre-yelled at.” So good.
My boys eat SO MUCH as of late — a gallon of milk lasts only some days — so yesterday we made Ghirardelli boxed brownies as a snack. I’d forgotten how wealthy, chewy, and scrumptious they’re. Undoubtedly the very best boxed brownies in the marketplace. (Agree/disagree?)
With reference to readers’ winter outfits, London-based Sumaya despatched in a submission in the present day: “I wait all yr to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was once thought of fairly old school, however now they’re fashionable with Kashmiris dwelling out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so blissful. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with clothes, denims, coats, something. My son wears his with a hoodie and Uggs. And so they all have POCKETS!”
Personally, and far much less colorfully, I’ve been into sporting a lot of mushy browns. These pants get a minimum of three compliments each time I put on them — the match is absolutely nice, with a slight barrel leg and utility fashion — and I discover myself pulling them on a number of instances per week. (Right here’s the same pair with extra sizing.)
What have you ever been into these days?
P.S. Extra enjoyable issues, and do you hold images of your mates in your house?
