Weekend coffee #121.

I have no what week this anymore, quarantine is finally starting to feel like a "new normal," for better or worse. Jesse is still considered essential, so we're still keeping a social distance from everyone we know as the cases in NJ have topped 100,000 at this point. But we really can't complain. We got some masks in the mail from a friend and have been playing trivia Friday nights with friends. It’s my aunt and sister’s birthdays, so there are Zoom parties to attend and phone calls to make. Otherwise, here's what I've been up to lately:

• America's Coffee Shops Just Might Survive This Moment

• Stanley Tucci's Negroni Tutorial Is A Lesson On Enjoying The Little Things

• Double Chocolate Fudge Stuffed Loaf Cake (made this Thursday night)

• We Took a Tour of Prince's Home Before It Shut Down

• Open Book by Jessica Simpson (go for the audio version)

• The essential worker revolution of 2020 will not wait.

• Have You Been Playing “F, Marry, Kill” Wrong Your Entire Life?

• Center Stage Is Still The Best Goddamn Ballet Movie Of Our Time (it really is)

• Do You Hate Me for My Yard?

That's all for now. If anyone needs anything, let me know! Until next time - thanks for following along and be well.
