I am not certain I treatment about the purpose as considerably as I search ahead to the momentum and strength I experience creating.
Here’s a peek into what we acquired up to in March 2023 and what it all felt like for me…
I began the month by kicking off our March theme on Wit & Delight, which was all about decorating with Coloration. On the evening of March 1, I chatted about style on Instagram Live with Rivki Rabinowitz. I really liked our dialogue. If you skipped it, you can hear to it proper below.

On March 5, I went to a seriously attractive out of doors supper that a friend of mine hosted. We ate oysters, cassoulet, and chocolate pots de crème. Most of the other company had been individuals I hadn’t fulfilled right before and it was genuinely exciting to get to know them.
This thirty day period, I begun experience like myself once more immediately after acquiring COVID in February. I commenced educating myself much more advanced chess approaches. I ate a whole lot of plums. When I wasn’t dining out or with close friends, I made an hard work to try to eat additional plant-based mostly foods in typical.
