What's Giving You Joy Right Now?

Shows, movies, snacks, recipes, books, drinks.... let's crowdsource. Or, vent about your Mother's Day.

I know it’s mid-May and there are flowers around and sometimes the sun comes out, but I feel like we could all use some happiness this week. For today’s thread, I want to know about the things you’re enjoying in life right now — all of your, as they say, guilty pleasures. (Except fuck guilt. Then just your …. pleasures, I guess? Although as my middle schooler would say, that sounds suss.

I have been eating a lot of Reese’s Pieces this week, as well as this fantastic crumb coffee cake, and I recently started watching the show The Bear (I know, I know… very late to that party), which is fantastic. Also I am somewhat obsessed with Nutella biscuits and non-alcoholic Athletic Brewing Company beer. I have started reading Tana French’s new novel The Hunter, which is slow to develop but that’s okay because it’s set in Ireland. And I’m still getting much joy out of my monthly clothing rental service, Nuuly (dm me if you want a coupon!). It’s soooooo fun to pick out those clothes.

What about you? Share your favorite delightful snacks, desserts, books, shows, movies, accessories, clothes, recipes, whatever in the comments. And/or share stories about your Mother’s Day if that would be helpful. We’re here for you.
