What a weekend! Impromptu dinner party with the best chill friends, date day full of #flat493’s favorite things, all the choiring, three days of sun in a row, and, of course, quality puppy and kitchen time.

This has been in my head All. Morning. Getting caught in the Messenger/Insta outage wasn’t a huge loss, personally - but I do hate missing everyone’s big - and little - news!

So #whatdidimiss? Shout out your #Wednesdaywisdom, #wednesdaywins big and small, or even a #goodvibes request.

After all, the best part of social media is the social. But from afar, obviously #introvertlife 😉

In the last few months, I have had the opportunity to say no to three productions for which I didn’t even audition but that happened to need a mezzo-belter and/or character actress of a certain type.
•
I say this not as a #humblebrag - if anything, it’s a For Real brag, because this happens so rarely to women in the #musicaltheatre world. #actorlife 😉
•
But it’s not just to brag brag either. I’m posting this in case you need a reminder today that it’s ok to say no. You don’t always have to say yes just because someone asks. You can say no for your own self care, mental health, or just because you don’t want to do a thing.
•
Obviously, there are exceptions to every rule, but it really is ok to be selfish when necessary.

I cooked three very different #chickenthigh meals this weekend - and still couldn’t resist taking myself out for the pro version. Links to some highly recommended - and budget friendly! - recipes live on the blog now. Many thanks to @food52, @foodandwine, @bonappetit, @rosemarried, @kitchen_trials, and @flchefnicole.

I always pick up random makeupwipes from @tjmaxx for my gymbag. And these..... smell like a head shop. Not like pot or patchouli, but like some incense blend whose name I feel I should remember from college.
•
I must say, however, they do a great job at removing even mascara before a postwork yoga session! Along with my staple #rosewatertoner and #hyaluronicserum from the @traderjoes, I feel ready for whatever the mat has for me.
•
Makeup wearing friends, do you have any go-to on-the-go makeup remover suggestions I should keep in mind?
