So far, I’ve read Bridget Jones’s Diary, the Notebook, and the Road to Tender Hearts. I am nearing the middle of Remarkably Bright Creatures. My strategy is to read anything that is on its own special table at B&N or has been made into a film; that means the books are immensely popular, and there’s likely good reason. So far, this strategy has yet to fail me, and it pushes me out of my literary comfort zone 😊
Just downsized from a rental house to an apartment while we save to buy a house - a huge endeavor with two little kids in tow! So all the cleaning advice was so timely and encouraging - and I am currently blasting the 2008 playlist as I get this new place put together. Always a joy and inspiration to see what you put together for your readers, thank you!
Thank you for reading, Michelle! Congrats on your move. I hope apartment living is a gift! And thank you for teaching your children the 2008 classics. We must relay "Come Clean" to the youths.
I first heard Come Clean from your Instagram post a few months ago, and it’s absolutely amazing! I also love So Yesterday (my favorite classic Hilary Duff song), and I adore her newest album (Future Trippin is my favorite from the album!). That being said, I was delighted to see her name scattered throughout the cleaning playlist!
⭐️ Using the comments as a Summer Reading Challenge check in! What books are you loving?

Also: telling everyone I know to go read The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion 👌🏻
Oooo! Okay!
Yes x 1,000 -- it has become my all-time favorite series.
My sisters and I are all obsessed, and I'm working on getting our mom to start the series!
That picture of the watercolored plate about to be washed is priceless!
"It’s been a redemptive spring, full of a busy pull-out couch and lots of washing towels and sheets." Love it!

Thanks for including my tip! It's been passed down from my great-grandmother, to my mother, and to me. And now to all your readers! How fun!
Thank YOU for sharing your family tradition with all of us!
Such a fun read!
I used to leave all my cleaning until the weekend too, but I've learned to let go and pick things up gradually throughout the week 🫧
I am so glad you enjoyed reading! And i agree that The picking up is the heaviest lift!
