Hey friends,

What do you do on a long weekend when trapped inside by rain?

You make bread. (Not a joke this time, but an actuality).

Thinking Too Hard 🤔

What are some things about your daily life that you've stopped taking a good look at?

Your desk? Your living room furniture? What you're carrying in the bottom of your backpack? All the things we interact with constantly but don't really LOOK at.

The changing of the seasons reminds me to take stock of what's doing good work, and what could be better — a Summer Purge! GitHub tells me I haven't updated my editor setup in about a year. It's time to tip it over and see if what I've got in there needs revitalizing.

Is there an area in your daily life that could use a Summer Purge?
