Good morning friends, a very happy Friday to you. How are you? Are you seeing the light at the end of the tunnel? Although as I write that I am not sure what that means. Mother’s day is Sunday, do you have any plans? Will you be celebrating yourself if you are home alone? You should? Will you set up a Zoom call with mom or stand in her front garden and say hello from a distance? Whatever you do, don’t forget to make your mom and the mother figures in your life feel extra special on Sunday. 

I hope that you enjoy my Friday favorites.

Quick easy and delicious Tomato Basil and Brie Pasta from The Recipe Girl.

Negotiation is not a zero-sum game.

In this groundbreaking new book on negotiation, Ask for More, Alexandra Carter—Columbia law professor and mediation expert who has helped students, business professionals, the United Nations, and more—offers a straightforward, accessible approach anyone can use to ask for and get more.

I preordered and am looking forward to reading The Jane Austen Society.

A powerful and moving novel that explores the tragedies and triumphs of life, both large and small, and the universal humanity in us all, Natalie Jenner’s The Jane Austen Society is destined to resonate with readers for years to come.
