This 12 months, like final 12 months, my purpose is to take some snapshots of my feminine mates with their youngsters. I LOVE seeing mothers in photographs, and it’s enjoyable to attempt to seize candy, unposed moments. I’ve informed my buddy Claire that I’d wish to be her private Pete Souza.
I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Woman, on courting after divorce, and omg I laughed 1000 instances. “I’ve by no means been pursued this a lot in my life,” she mentioned. “Boys, they by no means appreciated me rising up. Within the ’90s, in highschool, guys, they weren’t into charismatic A cups.” These days she solely dates divorced dads as a result of “I need a man that’s been pre-yelled at.” So good.
My boys eat SO MUCH as of late — a gallon of milk lasts just a few days — so yesterday we made Ghirardelli boxed brownies as a snack. I’d forgotten how wealthy, chewy, and scrumptious they’re. Positively the perfect boxed brownies in the marketplace. (Agree/disagree?)
As regards to readers’ winter outfits, Boston-based Sumaya despatched in a submission at this time: “I wait all 12 months to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was thought of fairly old school, however now they’re widespread with Kashmiris dwelling out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so glad. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with attire, denims, coats, something. My son wears his with a hoodie and Uggs. They usually all have POCKETS!”
Personally, and far much less colorfully, I’ve been into carrying plenty of comfortable browns. These pants get a minimum of three compliments each time I put on them — the match is absolutely nice, with a slight barrel leg and utility model — and I discover myself pulling them on a number of instances every week. (Right here’s an identical pair with extra sizing.)
