I read enough books in the last year I don't even remember them all! But technically I finished Cleaning Up Your Mental Mess by Dr. Caroline Leaf at the start of 2022 (changed my life about anxiety!) And at the end of the year I read Come As You Are by Emily Nagoski (it's about female sexuality, it's got an awkward-to-carry-around-in-public cover, but it taught me things in preparation for marriage no one has EVER told me--every woman should read).

You're the kind of neighbor I've always wanted: the kind who welcomes the pop-in, offers me a wedge of warm banana bread, and never looks at her watch.

You're also the kind, apparently, that curates inspiration. That poem is gorgeous! Thank you for bringing it into my life.

Now. Recipe for the Moroccan soup, please?
