Long Read. How to ask if everything is okay when it is clearly not.

We’ve both been getting up early or staying up late (or both) because of work, and lunch is now served at 10:45.  So breakfast for lunch is becoming a thing around our house.  It’s also cheaper than ordering UberEats again.

These blistered tomatoes with goat cheese scrambled eggs are so good.  Add a coarse grain toast and you have the perfect meal.  If you want more greens, just toss in some spinach.

Do your scrambled eggs always come out dry?  The Modern Proper will teach you how to make the perfect soft scramble.

    Aging correctly, what a revelation. I know I’ve been struggling lately with the changes wrought on my person by a spectacularly changed world, and how do we stay as we were before something so monumental happens to us? This is a wonderful reminder that there is no staying the same, we can only embrace the changes and adjust accordingly.

    The podcast, “Pantsuit Politics” had an interview withAnne Helen Petersen (the author of the firstlinked article). Highly recommend the interview and that podcast in general.

    Excellent edit today!!

    Would you ever consider posting pictures of yourself and your outfits? I know it’s not something you do on the site, but I think it might help illustrate the 2/3 ways posts and the outfit suggestions. Would love to see your style in action!

      Sometimes I post them to my Instagram under Real Outfits highlights. Life’s been so crazy lately that I haven’t, but I should start again.

My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.

Saw It On Social: The Battle of the Spendy Swimsuits

Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Mondays: July 22, 2024

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
