If you don't mind turning on the oven, my go to summer desserts are the Strawberry Spoon Cake and Plum Torte (both recipes on NYT)

oddly enough, I don't mind turning it on for dessert... but I won't do it for dinner! 😂

I don’t often wear t-shirts but you might have inspired me to go through my collection. Mostly vintage Neil Young 🕳️

wow... whether you saw him live or found those t-shirts, I'm envious either way!

Both! I get the most compliments on a recent tour sweatshirt of his. Compliments not quite the right word more shock that anyone is wearing Neil Young merch (ha!)

After weeks of wardrobe austerity, coming home to the full closet is intimidating! I love that you've just grooved on repeats, Eleanor. I am drooling over those Adidas shoes - love your laces, good call to swap them out.

Way to go, protesting!!

I could see you wearing the Adidas... I feel like they fit perfectly into your 'weird Adidas' category!

They do! Maybe one day they will show up at a local consignment or thrift shop.🤞

I appreciate the AI book recommendation! I was at a bachelorette party and one of the women started talking about how she uses chat GPT all the time to talk to her like a Jungian therapist who has training in family systems. It felt like the prelude to a Black Mirror episode!

As a therapist, I've definitely been spiraling about that specific behavior lately!

I don't love dressing for summer, so I'm noticing more of a capsule trend in myself now that it's so hot... just under this heat dome pairing a handful of t shirts or tank tops with the same four pairs of shorts I have that I like, with the occasional linen or rayon dress or skirt when I'm leaving the house! I miss layers.
