lamp post / bev cooks

FRRRRRRRRRRRR97856453421! Are you a puzzle person? Not to be confused with puzzled person. But a puzzle person.

backyard daisies / bev cooks

FRRRRRRRRRRRRumuluduru! I wish I was a skirt person. I TRY. I try with skirts. I think, “Look at that skirt! What a cute skirt! I need that skirt!” And then I hate the stupid skirt. And I’ve tried Everlane, Madewell, Target, Old Navy, even F41 a few years ago, but nothing is quite right. Why […]

french market / bev cooks

FRRRRRRRRRRRumidydumday! I (finally) watched the Friends Reunion special last night and I LOVED IT. LOOOOOOOOVED IT. l.o.v.e.d.i.t. It was just lovely. I watched it over at my friends’ Seth and Ashlee’s house because they have HBO Max and we don’t. It’s like that friend in the late ’80s who had MTV and your parents didn’t […]

FRRRRRRRRRRRi-uh-de-uh! Who’s your favorite night show host? OR RATHER – who’s your biggest night show host crush? And if you say Jimmy Kimmel we definitely have work to do. I’ll start! CONAN. Yes, Conan O’Brien. My crushness knows no end with Conan. He’s tall, he’s self deprecating, his nasally voice is perfect, he’s stylish (but […]
