this week #28

Good morning and happy hump day! Today is a busy day for me. I woke up extra early to get my workout in because I have a full day at work and then a John Green book tour event tonight! It’s going to be a great day. My workout this morning was tough, but I Continue reading

My Annual PSA
A few years ago I made an amazing discovery on a beautiful spring day. I don’t remember where I found this or when, but I was meal planning for the week and arbitrarily chose a grain salad that sounded interesting. Maybe a chef I follow on Instagram recommended it, maybe I found it on Pinterest, Continue reading

Happy spring! Well, not quite, but close enough! It was a beautiful 70 degree here in the DC area yesterday, and I am overjoyed. I went on a very sunny run during my lunch break, too. All around fantastic. After a busy week last week, followed by a weekend full of running and sleeping, it Continue reading

Hi! How are you? It’s been a pretty wild few weeks. Do you constantly feel like you’re about to crash out? Is your every conversation about the doom and gloom that is the state of our democracy? Understandable. 100%. But I’m going to hold your hand while I say this: you need to get it Continue reading

Half Formed Thoughts

I’ve had a topic that I’ve wanted to write about all week. It’s been a half formed idea that’s been floating around in my brain since last weekend but, every time I sit down to write, my brain fizzles out and can’t muster up quite enough power to make it happen. Maybe because this week Continue reading

this week #24
Hi, it’s been a few weeks! January has proved to be very, very busy. And insane. Between work, running, life, and the state of the world generally, I have felt so worn out. Every time I have sat down to write something, I become overwhelmed with the work of it and simply cannot muster the Continue reading

this week #23 – patrick’s version!

Hi everyone. For those of you living under a rock or tuning in for the first time, I’m Juliana’s husband, Patrick. I felt both honored and a little nervous when Juliana asked me to be a guest author for her newsletter. If you know me well it will probably come as no surprise that I Continue reading
