First Rodeo

First Rodeo

Everything I read in October + other small delights.

Open for comfort, inspiration, and a little catch up.

Hi readers! It’s been what feels like a very long time since I wrote to you last— about 2 weeks. I had wanted to email you sooner, but the lead up to and day of (and after….) the election ended up feeling very nuts.

I don’t plan on sustaining this inconsistent writing cadence, but there’s nothing like a break, regardless of the circumstances, to get your batteries recharged a bit. I found myself overflowing with things to say to you today!

Before we dive in, thank you all for the kind words after I wrote about my (f)unemployment last week. I really do somehow feel busier than ever! Juggling a few clients, my ongoing efforts to TikTok my way through 30 Days of 30 Ina Garten Recipes, and regular life seems to have my cup overflowing. (In the best way!!)
