what’s cookin’
Hello dear readers,
My apologies for ghosting you last week! I was hoping to send out my final column last Tuesday before getting on the road for my annual summer break in Lake Tahoe, but, unfortunately, neither of those things happened. I had to deal with an unexpected personal matter over the past week, which put everything in my life on hold. (Sorry for not responding to some of your emails!)
Thankfully, I’ve made it through that rough patch (and my health is great, so please, don’t worry)! I was able to drive up to Tahoma (AKA Stayhoma) 🌲 on Friday, where it has been so rainy and chilly, but the mountain air is delicious, and Fortuna is loving chipmunk TV.
I certainly wasn’t planning to be away from your inbox for three weeks, just two, but that’s life. I had a bunch of news lined up for you—there’s so much going on—but it will have to wait until I return to your inbox on Tuesday September 9th. Thanks so much for understanding.
At this point, I’m officially on my much-needed vacation. Your hopper is going to be offline for the next two weeks, with my nose in a book and glass of rosé, so I won’t be responding to email. Your gurl needs a break.
Have a fun Labor Day holiday, and here’s hoping conditions improve for everyone who’s out on the playa—it has been another rough Burn this year. The weather has been wild up here, with thunder and lightning, and it was an absolute deluge ⛈️ on the West Shore yesterday. Come back, sun. Please. I need some summer.
See you September 9th!
I appreciate you so much. 💋
