New haircute! Thank goodness I have the best stylist in town to interpret what I want. Make your appointments with @smithanddavissalon to get your own, Chicago.

Yes I would like to yoga.

The ladies of @newbookjoy made my books their April “tastings” —four books, four book clubs, four events, two weeks, SO much fun. I feel like a celebrity. Photo from today’s tea tasting to talk about Death at Greenway.

Total eclipse. Ok Ok, I get it now. It was freaking cool.

Went to a CHEESEMONGER talk with @susannacalkins last night and it was just as fun as you might suspect. 🧀 plus 🍷 @lynfredwinery

Tracked down a @jimbachor pothole original, still in place! #chicago I love Nighthawks!

Souvenir from my trip to England to visit Ann Cleeves and attend @bay_tales. In the north, it means timid people don’t get what they don’t ask for.
