Beach Vibes and Cozy Picks

Hey friends,

Why don’t seagulls fly over the bay?

Because then they’d be bagels 🥯


Smol Break ⛱️

No regular email this week -- I'm off to the beach!

Beach Vibes

I hope y'all have some plans to take some time off and recharge!


Get Your Cozy On 😌

Instead of the usual link list, here's a few cozy things I've enjoyed recently:

Books

  • The Tainted Cup - a fantasy mystery with a little bit of Godzilla mixed in.
  • Jackaby - while we're on fantasy mysteries, here's another one in the spirit of Sherlock, if Sherlock chased vampires. There's 4 books in the series, and they get progressively better. (I'm on book 3).
  • The Lie Tree - a dark, sad historical fantasy about the power an impact of lies. Very creative and gripping.

Games

  • BZZZT - an adorable precision platformer; good for turning your brain off and just tackling the levels.
  • House Flipper - another relaxing game where you fix up houses. This one gives the satisfaction of checking items off a list without the actual hard work involved, lol.
  • Strange Horticulture - a narrative game about running an herbalist's shop with a slight Lovecraftian feel.

Shows

  • Tastefully Yours - a cozy Korean comedy/drama about a food empire heir crossing paths with a quirky, passionate chef.
