This yr, like final yr, my objective is to take some snapshots of my feminine mates with their kids. I LOVE seeing mothers in photographs, and it’s enjoyable to attempt to seize candy, unposed moments. I’ve advised my good friend Claire that I’d wish to be her private Pete Souza.
I lastly watched Ali Wong’s new comedy particular, Single Girl, on courting after divorce, and omg I laughed 1000 occasions. “I’ve by no means been pursued this a lot in my life,” she mentioned. “Boys, they by no means favored 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 lately — a gallon of milk lasts only some days — so yesterday we made Ghirardelli boxed brownies as a snack. I’d forgotten how wealthy, chewy, and scrumptious they’re. Undoubtedly the most effective boxed brownies available on the market. (Agree/disagree?)
With regards to readers’ winter outfits, London-based Sumaya despatched in a submission right this moment: “I wait all yr to put on my conventional velvet Kashmiri pheran. They was thought-about fairly old school, however now they’re common with Kashmiris residing out and in of Kashmir, and that makes me so pleased. They’re meant to be layered, so I pair mine with clothes, denims, coats, something. My son wears his with a hoodie and Uggs. And so they all have POCKETS!”
Personally, and far much less colorfully, I’ve been into sporting a lot of mushy browns. These pants get no less than three compliments each time I put on them — the match is actually nice, with a slight barrel leg and utility type — and I discover myself pulling them on a number of occasions per week. (Right here’s an identical pair with extra sizing.)
What have you ever been into currently?
