Hit the ❤️ button in BRIGHT solidarity if there are some domestic tasks you don’t love. If you’re fond of all things domestic, good on you, you are truly amazing — so hit the ❤️ in honor of that too A big shout out to my new paid subscribers, I’m thrilled by the number of folks who have hopped on board recently! If you haven’t grabbed a subscription to everything TBL you can do that here if you’re interested and, in return, here’s my cybersmooch, xoxo.

I took this pic on my morning walk this week, which is what I’d rather be doing than cooking. That, or writing to you!

The thing about me is I don’t like cooking - and yet it’s also my love language.

This tricky (and sometimes overwhelming) conundrum produces a lot of drama in my head, and it can get exhausting.

I hear you thinking “well then why don’t you stop cooking???”

If only it was that easy.

Have you ever found that it’s one thing to see the patterns that are not serving you and another thing to fully change them? I see you nodding yes…
