The days are dark and cold, at least in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere. We thought it would be fun to share what is bringing us joy, comfort, and generally helping us get through these months until spring arrives.


Life Lately

Abby used this kit to pierce a second set of holes in her ears.

Sarah’s kids are enjoying sleepovers with friends.


Reading lately

Abby read Out of the Clear Blue Sky by Kristan Higgins which was a recommendation from a listener—thank you Chrissie!

Sarah and E enjoyed the Friends series of graphic novels written by Shannon Hale and illustrated by LeUyen Pham: Real Friends, Best Friends, and Friends Forever.


Eating lately

Sarah made vegetarian beef stroganoff (with Impossible meat) from this Damn Delicious recipe.

Abby treated herself to chocolate mousse from Costco.
