THIS WEEK’S HIGHLIGHTS
This week, I delved into articles about Shein, Reese Witherspoon, and Hollywood Ponzi schemes. I explored the joys of journaling with Papery, tested out Lazy for organizing links and notes, savored some refreshing Poppi soda, perfected a toddler-approved mac and cheese recipe, and contemplated attending the Wu-Tang Clan listening party in Australia.
