The Edition: No. 198

Nov 17, 2020

Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened. // Rev. Billy Graham

+ “Women’s work” can no longer be taken for granted.

+ I can’t say enough good things about these wide leg work pants.

+ America’s daughters grow up to be women it can’t handle.

+ Don’t miss my favorite tights when the weather turns cold.

+ ‘Is my job the problem, or is it me?’

+ My favorite concealer and concealer brush are now available at Ulta.

+ What is early menopause, and how to prepare for it.

+ Gap has so many cute pajamas; this star print is lovely.

+ Do you think it matters how you end your e-mails?

+ The Reiss Outlet is amazing. This blouse looks great with black suits.

+ See inside Rome’s secure vault for housing stolen art.

+ This brushed funnel neck sweater is so unbelievably cozy.

Long Read. What’s the catch with a $99,000 condo in NYC?

It’s been a hard week.  Enter mug cake.  Sometimes mug cake recipes lead to a chalky and unappetizing product.  But this S’Mores Mug Cake from How Sweet Eats is actually pretty good.

So if you love sweets, but you shouldn’t bake a whole cake and eat your way through it while watching Bake Off on Netflix (who would do that?!), try this mug cake.

Prefer pie?  Jean has a recipe for simple apple pies that used crescent dough and makes individual servings.  Don’t miss it.

    Damn, if that the Cut article doesn’t nail it right on the (still blatantly mysogynistic world) nail on the head.

    Wow, this must be a top10 edition post. The Cut article is really well done, the work advice cut through the fog, the pajamas are cute, and my signature petpeeve is having “thanks” as a canned sign off on every message.
