I love love the moment of you stirred your tea with the cat food spoon. Wrong spoon. It it didn’t ruin your day. Progress. Good read. Thank you.

“Maybe we should fix me up.” Lololol. Also, those bullets at the end! “Go to a museum. Find a Vermeer.” and “Comfort first” 💓💓

Cat spoon ... shea butter! Oh Lisa, forgive me but I've only just seen this! What a lovely piece and what a lovely thing - sharing my work. Thank you. It's horizontal snow here in Stockholm, not a tulip in sight, but you've quite made my day. All best wishes to you, Cary

I really love this ❤️ I'm 19 so 59 feels like a world away, but you make me feel like it will all be okay in the end. I appreciate the thoughts on being a human too! ❤️❤️❤️

I love your writing so much, Lisa. I’ve been a fan since reading the piece you wrote on waitressing. The spoon moment made me laugh aloud and “sheet metal days” - wow - I’ve been thinking about the particular shade of grey we’ve been surrounded with and haven’t been sure how to describe it - you nailed it - and so much more. Thank you!!
