Will you be watching Sense and Sensibility, which comes out tomorrow in theaters? The NYTimes review calls it “visually lovely, emphasizing the wide gulf between the stuffy world of manners and pecking orders and the wild freedom of forests and moors” with a “looser and more realist feel than many other Austen adaptations, which run toward the corseted side of things.” Sign me up.
We host a lot of overnight guests, especially teenagers, and my friend Mo (of four kids fame) suggested we get an extra twin mattress. How smart is that? Since it’s a real mattress, it’s WAY comfier than an air mattress (never again); it’s light enough to easily carry up and down stairs; and we just slide it under one of our double beds for storage.
What delicious dinners have you made recently? We made white chicken chili (gift link) the other night, and the boys devoured it. Plus, it was even better the following day for a work-from-home lunch.
Good news: Rothy’s clogs and mules are currently up to 25% off. I keep my cozy slip-ons by the door to throw on for neighborhood hijinks, like running to the grocery store, walking around the block with a friend, or watching my kids do wheelies down the street (“Look, Mom!!!”).
P.S. More fun things, and an anxiety trick.
