anyone?

This Lenny Letter review of How to Celebrate Everything made me laugh. (โ€œCome for the party-throwing tips, stay for the unique family rituals she shares. User-friendly, practical, festive, and delicious. Just like Joy of Sex.โ€)

If this anthology is anything like her first anthology, Iโ€™m all over it.

I love the way the candles look on this table. (P.S. Locals: The private room at Saint Georgeย is beyond elegant.)

Want to raise a trail-blazing daughter?

Three questions to ask your kids every night. (I love this so much.)

Historic moment of the month: Eric Ripert tries a Twinkie.

Speaking of fine dining: I love Brooks Headley.

Gretchen Rubin, longtime champion of happiness and great childrensโ€™ literature, on her favoriteย Childrenโ€™s and Young-Adult Books.

The latestย graphic novel from DALS-fave Raina Telgemeier.

A Snack-tivistโ€™s Manifesto

An NPR series devoted to the challenges of working parents.

Can never have too manyย apple crumb cakeย recipes in my opinion.

Whoโ€™s in Brooklyn tomorrow? Iโ€™ll be signing books and feeding people at PowerHouse on 8th in Park Slope from 4:00-5:30. Come say hi! Please please please!

Probably my most favorite interview ever: Perfect Food Day.

Proud to be an alumnus today.

This oneย is for the history books.

    I love that perfect food day interview so much! I couldโ€™ve stopped after the run + coffee at Stone Barns, but then you went to the Grand Central Oyster Bar with your dad (arenโ€™t dads the best?!)

    So bummed Iโ€™m not in town this weekend or I 100% would have been at Powerhouse.

    you donโ€™t have a cocktail everyday? only at the END of the week? for some reason, i thought it was daily, and thatโ€™s how iโ€™ve been justifying mine. i feel like a rockstar when i take mondays and tuesdays off.
