While Melanie went to Round Top with Caroline this past weekend, I watched a lot of basketball and Netflix, so we catch up on this episode about all of our respective adventures (on my end of things, to be clear, "adventures" is a super strong word). There's also a post-book club recap of our Here Be Dragons discussion with Perry, which was the 2025 gift we didn't even know we needed. 

Also, I share about how I decided to celebrate my mama's birthday this year, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!
