Weekend Reading, 11.29.25 – The Stripe

Hello hello, I hope you had the best Thanksgiving! We have a very low-key weekend ahead over here, as work has been bananas for both of us (cyber week for me, semester-end stuff for him!). Seeing a friend or two here or there, but mostly resting, getting out for a couple of walks, and holing up at home. Lighting fires, burning the holiday candles . . . all of the best things! Whatever you are up to, I hope it’s wonderful. Xox
