This past week was definitely the hardest I’ve had since the start of COVID restrictions in March. It was a culmination of a lot of things and I really can’t shake the feeling of uneasiness. I did my best to get my to-do list done as much as possible so I can fully step away from my laptop AND phone this weekend. Hoping an unplugged few days does the trick

Here’s what has been on my radar this week:
ONE // The Claudia Kishi Club
If you have found yourself deep diving on all things Baby Sitters Club, like I have, after watching the recent revival on Netflix, I have something else for you. A documentary coming out on Netflix all about Claudia Kishi– and how her character helped inspire a generation of Asian-American creatives.
TWO // Mask Savers
A reader just started selling beaded mask savers and mask saver kits! She shared her Etsy storefront with me and I thought it was such a fun idea! You can pick what colors you want the beads to be and add customization too. Kind of like a modern friendship bracelet
THREE // Group Chat Realness Podcast
My friend Venita launched a podcast!!! She and Sophie Gold are sharing weekly episodes bringing those “group chat” conversations into real conversations. I think it’s genius and I’ve already loved listening to the first two episodes. Highly recommend giving them a listen!
FOUR // Bakery Style Blueberry Muffins
I LOVE muffins but only enjoy them as a special treat. (They’re kind of like eating a slice of cake for breakfast!) But if I’m ever in a bakery where they have freshly baked blueberry muffins I always let myself indulge. This recipe could be dangerous to try at home… the bakery style muffins look divine.
FIVE // Liberty Floral Masks with Ruffles
Now that masks are a part of our lives, I am all about having cute ones. Might as well accessorize and coordinate! J. Crew just released another batch of Liberty masks with the cutest ruffles along the edge. So. Cute. Here’s a stripe + floral version, too. (And they also have some adorable kid versions as well!)
