This yr, like final yr, my aim is to take some snapshots of my feminine mates with their kids. I LOVE seeing mothers in pictures, and it’s enjoyable to attempt to seize candy, unposed moments. I’ve advised my buddy Claire that I’d wish to be her private Pete Souza.
I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Woman, on relationship 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 just a few days — so yesterday we made Ghirardelli boxed brownies as a snack. I’d forgotten how wealthy, chewy, and scrumptious they’re. Positively the very best boxed brownies in the marketplace. (Agree/disagree?)
With reference to readers’ winter outfits, London-based Sumaya despatched in a submission at this time: “I wait all yr to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was once thought-about fairly old style, however now they’re standard with Kashmiris residing out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so glad. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with attire, 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 carrying a number of tender browns. These pants get not less than 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 every week. (Right here’s an analogous pair with extra sizing.)
What have you ever been into these days?
P.S. Extra enjoyable issues, and do you cling pictures of your pals in your house?
