How to cope

Roast chicken, cocktails, and a book swap.

I’ve been thinking a lot about our West Coast friends who are watching their lives burn up in flames in Los Angeles. Hard to even think about anything else at the moment it’s so devastating. There are many ways to help, and sharing this list of 9 Ways to Help the victims of the LA Wildfires from Apartment Therapy, which I found useful.

Here in our frozen tundra in Brooklyn, I’m feeling rather somber, not only because of the wildfires, but the fear around the upcoming administration, and the loss of a dear industry friend, Myles Share. I just want to close my eyes, cuddle up and keep warm with people I love. If you’re feeling the need for some cozy comfort, I’ve got a few ideas below that will help — including roast chicken, Amaro cocktails, and a wine bar book swap. Hugs!
