I hope you’ve had a restful and happy holiday we I hope you’ve had a restful and happy holiday weekend, and if you’re kicking off the holiday season, I bet a little festive music may help. That’s right: it’s my annual holiday playlist! 🎄🎶

Longer than ever, with nearly 30 songs and 90 minutes of festive tunes, this year’s playlist really, really runs the gamut - from Cher and Alanis Morissette to John Prine and…Wheatus?! Oh, I love this one, and I hope you do, too!

Listen at the #linkinbio on Spotify and if you enjoy it, I hope you’ll let me know!

The holidays are always so busy, and navigating al The holidays are always so busy, and navigating all the schedules is stressful. So we opted for small a Thanksgiving feast at home that turned into an impromptu Friendsgiving with rack of lamb, fancy mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts gratin and more, plus plenty of red wine to go around. Dessert included the most decadent cheesecake (first time, from scratch and soooo good!) and a berry pie for good measure.

Grateful for all the wonderful people in my life, near and far, at the holidays and always. I am so lucky. 🧡🦃🥧

I don’t remember how exactly I discovered her and her music, but I definitely remember the absolute sense of liberation when I did, the sheer force of her guitar and her lyrics a one-two punch unlike anything I’d ever heard. I didn’t know we (read: women) could be so bold, so blunt, so…badass!

Never thought I’d get to see her do her thing live; thrilled she gave us the chance! #lizphair #exileinguyville #chicagotheatre #polyesterbride #rockshow #livemusic #saturdaynight #rockandrollweekend
After an unintentional dry spell, I made a return After an unintentional dry spell, I made a return to the theater with gusto last week. Sondheim! Shakespeare! Sandwich community theater!

From @broadwayinchicago’s tour of COMPANY (a gender-swapped revival I’ve decided I’m not fully on board with), to a joyful TWELFTH NIGHT at @chicagoshakes (on thru Dec 3!), to a head-scratcher of a cash-grab in BEETLEJUICE, it was quite a week for being in the audience (and in one case, contributing some baked goods to the production!), and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

If you’re curious, I wrote up some thoughts at the #linkinbio.
Sofia Coppola slips on kid gloves for PRISCILLA, r Sofia Coppola slips on kid gloves for PRISCILLA, recounting the decade-plus era Elvis and Priscilla spent together in the 1960s and early ‘70s. Now in theaters, the film bears all the hallmarks of Coppola’s signature style—dreamy visuals, quiet moments of poignant observation, and of course, a deeply complex understanding to the female protagonist. And yet, for me at least, she seems her least willing to explore the less flattering aspects of a tumultuous, ultimately unhealthy relationship with a megastar. My full review is at the #linkinbio or at @thirdcoastreview.
