As I write this, it is Sunday, Father’s Day. I typically work pretty far ahead, but left this post until the last minute because I didn’t really have a formal “topic.” I kept thinking that inspiration would strike, that I’d have some big, grand epiphany or some exciting thought to share with you. (It didn’t.)

This month’s post is more of a hello, a life catch-up. Think of it as cozy letter from a friend. As a reminder, my “unfiltered” series is just for paid subscribers. (And on that note about paid posts, I’m so glad you enjoyed my downstairs home tour!)

In this letter:

  • I’ve never thought about protein more. Anyone else!?

  • An extremely sleepy/lazy weekend (and how I’ve mostly stopped feeling guilty about the lazy days). Why is everyone tired right now?

  • What I’m looking forward to this month (including the eight books I am most looking forward to reading).

But first: a treat!

Quick refresher: Every month, I choose one paid subscriber (US or Canada-based) and send them a box of goodies. Ths month’s box contains all sorts of goodies. The Outset’s moisturizer, Rifle Paper notepads, a cute raffia clutch, Kate McLeod’s face balm, goodies from Bobbi Brown, Clarins, Athena Club, Burts Bees, and lots more! Congratulations to Sarah (aka smro7777), this month’s winner. I hope you enjoy all of the treats.
