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.

Currently reading Ask For More.

Negotiation is not a zero-sum game. It’s an essential skill for your career that can also improve your closest relationships and your everyday life, but often people shy away from it, feeling defeated before they’ve even started. 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.

Potted Histories

My Wife Said You May Want To Marry Me

An inspiring memoir of life, love, loss, and new beginnings by the widower of bestselling children’s author and filmmaker Amy Krouse Rosenthal, whose last of act of love before her death was setting the stage for her husband’s life without her in the viral New York Times Modern Love column, “You May Want to Marry My Husband.”




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.




Finds

Have a happy and safe Mother’s day weekend.
