Monthly Recap: November 2020

November was full of apple pie, lots of reading and binge-watching, and writing. It was also full of election anxiety and post-election bliss.

We also got to head to Forest Gully Farms – a really cool secluded AirBNB an hour away that resembles The Shire. I’ll be writing up a full blog post on it soon, but until then here’s a photo of our visit.

Where I Was Featured in November 2020

I wrote this piece for Healthline on how to fall back asleep after waking at night.

For The Temper, I had two pieces published this month. One a bit more personal on balancing body positivity, overeating, and anxiety. The other on why we should stop complimenting others on weight loss this holiday season (and anytime!).

And, for Let’s Eat Cake, I continue to write these super fun pieces:

• The 25 Best Star Wars Gifts We Could Find Across the Galaxy
• 25 of the Most Unique Pies We’ve Ever Seen
• These 19 Sagittarius Tattoos Are Straight Fire
• Treat Yo Elf with One of These Funny Ugly Christmas Sweaters,
• You’re Gonna Flip Over These 19 Pancake Puns
• 18 Thanksgiving Nail Designs That Are (Almost) As Good As Pie
• This Cornucopia of 50 Thanksgiving Jokes Will Get You Through Dinner

What I’ve Been Reading…

I made a lofty goal to read 100 books in 2020. And, I’m happy to say, I’ve finished 80 books so far (at the end of November) and I’m pretty happy about that!

I’ve made a goal to read 100 books in 2020. Join me on Goodreads and on my new blog which is all about books and plants and coffee to read in-depth reviews!

Head over there to see everything I read in November!
