If you know me well, you know my feelings about Reese’s peanut butter cups vs. their peanut butter-enrobed holiday shapes. I wouldn’t eat a regular peanut butter cup if it were the last thing on earth; I will fight my own child for the same exact product when it is…

Today, I got up early and went to 6am hot yoga. I’m still getting reacclimated to working out in groups with other non-masked, breathing people — and I still feel a pretty serious amount of anxiety over it, but there are two places I want to be THE MOST on…
