Intro: Welcome to Spare Time, the pod where we recap the month
How did you spend your spare time this month:
* AA: SUMMERING: blueberry picking, weddings, capture the flag, cape cod, swimming, falling asleep on the couch
* MM: flying across the world, realizing I am old (it’s not that I don’t feel good…it’s that I *can’t* feel good), becoming a mother
Best/Worst:
* Best MM: Indian food in India (mango lassis, chai, paneer), but since that is high-key a copout, Pride ~conceptually~
* Best AA: Friendship Bracelet / Chocolate Cream Pie from Flour Bakery
* Worst MM: realizing I hate summer squash and losing our basic rights
* Worst AA: the VA tax office
Spare Time Rec:
* AA: Picnicking: Halloumi with Corn, Cherry Tomatoes, and Basil, Ginger Dill Salmon, Kale and Sugar Snap Pea Salad
* MM: Muna’s self-titled album
Culture / 3 Things You Need to Know:
* Daily Harvest lentil gate
* The One That Got Away feat. Betty Who
* American Girl Doll meme explosion - thank you @hellicity_merriman
Look Ahead:
* AA: maintaining my Coastal Grandma Lifestyle, reuniting with friends in NYC and Philly, turning 31, reading outside, hanging with my babes
* MM: a very chaotic July awaits: another Indian wedding (but this time in Virginia), a week long work conference in Orlando, another work thing in PA, and testing out my MOH skills at a bachelorette party
* Book club ep - discussing our June book, Easy Beauty by Chloe Cooper Jones, and our July book, We Do What We Do in the Dark by Michelle Hart
