What are you doing this week end? I’m going to get my hair cut this afternoon and I’m going slightly shorter (while essentially maintaining the same haircut I had since the age of four). Then we head to Connecticut to visit Old friends and eat tomato sandwiches. Hope you have a good one – take care – and here are some links around the web…
The new movie tower of joyfeaturing Ashley Park, looks fun.
How beautiful Michigan?
This cooling pillow helped me finally sleep through the night.
“American Ballet Theater don’t see me the way I see myself: I am a ballet dancer and a black man, in that order. I left the United States to train at the Bolshoi Ballet Academy in Moscow when I was 15 so that people would see my talent first and not my skin. It was a naïve dream, I realize now, because unlike painters, whose work can be viewed without their presence, I am both the artist and the work of art, and he cannot there be separation.

Incredibly tidy park for all ages = oddly satisfying.
I love this miracle spraywhich gives your face a naturally dewy look all day long.
have you seen the Copenhagen episode of The Bear, directed by Ramy Youssef? Youssef kept telling everyone that he had worked in a restaurant before (it was Panera Bread at 16).

Also, two comments from readers:
Said Maureen on a fun trick“Come get the items from…Trader Joe! My friends and I test seasonal products (weirdly, we’re not super into pumpkin lol). It’s so much fun and nobody has to cook.
Said Yelena on Virginia Sole-Smith’s Beauty Uniform“Since my eight-year-old daughter started playing sports, she lost part of her baby chub. Recently, our neighbor told her how slim and beautiful she was. I was shooting darts with my eyes, but the lady missed my signals. Later, as I was putting my daughter to bed, she asked me the question and I froze. I didn’t want to demonize thinness any more than being overweight. So I stumbled until my daughter came with a rescue. She said, ‘I just want to be strong, mom. I just want a strong body. Amen to that, kid!
