Time to Catch up on “This Is Us"


It’s been a long break since I’ve seen Jack, Rebecca and the (now #40 yo) triplets....

Spoiler alert: I could’ve sworn I'd seen TV promos saying the new, final season would start March 9 but now OnDemand says March 16. Boo.

  1. Healthy eating feels good. Salad, chicken sausage, almond butter, yogurt with apple and walnuts...not in that order. So does coffee in a cup & saucer from my parents 1951 wedding china set. Brings Mad Men to mind--coffee cups were so much smaller back in the day.
  2. Walked Sug around the block.
  3. Talked to Sis.
  4. Raked and gardened, first two big brown bags of the season. Ready to dig into more.
  5. Reviewed work invoices. Last year was a hell year in many ways and I hadnt sent an invoice for articles I submitted in November. So now I did.
  6. Starting to mentally gather items for Goodwill drop-off. Feels good. (The Ann Patchett essay in The New Yorker about decluttering was inspiring. I love Ann Patchett’s writing style.)
  7. Short chat with neighbors outside, good to catch up.
  8. Attended a virtual Diptyque Paris fragrance event on Zoom with Sis and a few dozen other scent lovers. It was fun. (Sniffapalooza).

  1. Sorry about your show. I have noticed the same "supersizing" in cocktail glasses. The vintage ones hold 3 oz, and a lot of classic cocktail recipes are based on 3 oz. I feel vaguely reprehensible when I double recipes for cocktails! and I gave away the teacups that came with my everyday china which held about 6 oz. We regularly use 10 oz mugs in the morning.

    after writing on Nans blog that I can wait, now feeling surge of competitiveness for vaccine. But MD still in stage 1c, and peter and I are in stage 3. So, like it or not, memorial Day will be crazy lucky, July 4 fortunate, labar day comletley possible. we shall see!
    happy friday! judging a moot court tomorrow, looking forward to the young faces.

  2. Ann Patchett is one of my favorite writers, and I'm not surprised that you love her.

    I feel like I will never catch up on "This is Us." I'm way behind!
