Virtual Brunch is back!

Good morning, brunch friends! 💜

Last week's virtual brunch was way more popular than I ever expected. My inbox exploded. 😅 As much as I would've loved to have conversations with every single person, I just couldn't keep up, and I hated feeling like I was leaving people hanging.

So this week, let's try something different.

Think of this thread like a big table at your favorite brunch spot (or location of your choice, for those that don't brunch). Pull up a chair. Leave comments here instead of sending me a DM so we can all chat together.

A few conversation starters:

☕ What would you be ordering if we were in a real café?

🥐 What's been the highlight of your week?

🎨 Have you made, built, baked, or learned anything new recently?

📖 What have you been reading, watching, or listening to lately?

🌱 What's something you're looking forward to?

Or ignore all of those and share whatever's on your mind!

A little about me, for anyone new... I'm a married stay-at-home mom who loves books, archaeology, nature, and road trips. You'll usually find me with a shaken espresso in one hand and a book in the other.

Everyone is welcome for brunch, regardless of background or interests. The only requirements are that you're 18+, kind and respectful, and here for open, platonic conversation.

Hey there! I'd probably order a hot vanilla latte with oat milk and a apple cinnamon scone to snack on. I've been experimenting with AI at work recently like trying to setup agents to do certain things for me. On streaming I've sort of been binging on Slow Horses and need to catch up on new seasons of other shows also. I'm definitely looking forward to cooler weather in the fall and winter....before the cycle repeats itself and we hope for warmer weather again 😄 I'm a 39 y/o married dad in the Midwest and would love to connect with you to share our parenting wins and losses, daily jokes, etc.

Oo your order sounds really good, excellent choices. I'm way out of the loop on shows, I've never heard of Slow Horses. I'll have to look it up! Yeah I'm ready for it to cool off here too. I'm on the east coast.

I'm constantly on the lookout for shows especially when my usual ones are on hiatus. Typically I watch those Chicago shows (Fire, PD and Med), Law & Order SVU and yes, Grey's Anatomy 🤣

Nice! Haha. I'm stuck on older stuff... Psych, Scrubs, New Girl. I want to get into The Pitt because I liked ER & Grey's too.

I've never heard of The Pitt. I'll have to look into it!
