Yes to all of this! Our table always seems like it's telling (an incredibly messy) story, and I get frustrated with it, and then enamored with it (and I often take pictures of it, as part of our history).

I just finished reading/listening to "Zarina Divided" by Reem Faruqi. It was wonderful. "Don't Let Him In" by Lisa Jewell was one of my favorite thriller summer reads.

Adding the Lisa Jewell book to my list. I'm in the mood for some thrillers this fall!

I always love glimpses of your table. <3

I hope you enjoy it! I love thrillers and read a ton of them; that one still stands out as so satisfying.

Boy, do I feel this! Yes, some seasons are busier than others. Honoring our realities and dreams simultaneously requires a very delicate balancing act.

one of your kitchen table photos was my introduction to your writing, so it feels a bit home-like to me! :) i love how beautiful you've made detritus, especially as it is quite a beautiful process. i have been listening to Sigur Rós this summer for the first time - a total delight that i did not know i needed! <3
