I’m adding a new monthly listicle to this dumb blog – a run-down of 13 of my favorite things for the month or what I’ve been up to or whatever. It’s 13 because my book concept is The Baker’s Dozen as is stated in the Book Summary, ok??? (👈🏼)
So let’s get it on!
1. Hyacinths! You guys – we’ve got hyacinths in our front yard! What a treat!
2. I’m so excited that there’s a Ripley show on Hulu right now, because it gives me a chance to do my incredible impressions. Impression #1 Cate Blanchett: “Dickie!? Dickie Greensleeves??? Is that you I see??? It’s me – MEREDITH! From the BOAT!” And Impression #2 is the gay guy at the very end (Peter Smith Kingsley): “Tom is smart. Tom is mysterious. Tom is MURDERING ME!”
3. I spent the last few days in Nashville and last night, my friends took me to Tiger Bar in East Nashville. It’s like a traveling carnival themed lil craft cocktail dump and the best drink is the Beneath The Cards. It’s gin and pear business and it has a pear / dill foam and then they put a lil tarot card on top. The tarot card is fun – but that drink is so fucking good! (TIGER BAR!)
4. I did my taxes and I’m getting $500 back. I need to check my withholdings because it’s usually a lot more than that. But – VOLPI VICTORY – it only took 2 hours and I didn’t cry!
5. My sister is working on some real cute shit for Letter Writing Month! Check it out!!! (@foxandcompass)
6. Y’all know I’m medium obsessed with Rachel Belle and her cute podcast Your Last Meal. Well, she done did it again! She’s on TV with a Pacific NW food thing called The Nosh and it’s great. Well done, pal! Bagel episode here!
7. I just bought 800 of these t-shirts from Old Navy because I think they’re so comfy! Old Navy shirts!
8. Is everyone still watching Rupaul Drag Race? Loving the final 3 – and I’m really hoping Nymphia Wind wins. Great great great!
9. I fucking love that Blackbird on the Cowboy Carter album so much.
10. And this yogurt!
11. Everyone’s talking about NY Times Connections, but is anyone else playing Strands? So fun!
12. And I’m taking French lessons again on Duolingo and not to blow my own French horn (lol) but my brains are très agréables!
13. Last but not least – my fake internet boyfriend of the month is this cookbook hunk Andy Baraghani. hubba hubba!
I'm Writing A Cookbook!!!
