THINGS THAT MAKE ME HAPPY

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's to find meaning in the smallest of places. Here are three things that bring me joy.

BEING AMONG THE BOOKS

June 2017

One of my fondest memories is staying at the Shakespeare and Company Bookstore in Paris for a few weeks. Books are my raison d'être and help me through troubled times.

CAT WALKS

February 2021

I take my cat on walks around parks and hiking trails. He stares out his backpack and makes an angry face, but I assure you he's purring. Sometimes at home, he jumps in the backpack just because.

NEW RECIPES

November 2021

I love the challenge of cooking new recipes from cuisines around the world. Recent favorite: Spanish croquettes. Essentially, they are Spanish hushpuppies. They did not last long.
