The "Narrow Margin" Edition
Dear Readers,
This is an edition published very close to deadline. Down to the wire. For all the right reasons such as: Wordle In 3: done. Tennis x 2: done. Cocktail party: given. Guest room turned upside down, fumigated, washing of slipcovers, mattress covers, window sills, vacuuming, you name it: done. Transplanting (plants, not organs): done. Guacamole: made. Gift wrapped/card written for a 50th birthday party: check. Halfway interesting intro to the LZ Sunday Paper: ….on to do list for next week.
Which means more time for you to read at least a few more of these articles by, for, and about women, delivered straight to your inbox. Every Sunday morning. The best in Politics, Business, Health, Pop Culture, The Arts, Sports, and more. Enjoy.
If you aren’t already a subscriber, it’s time:
If you have a story you think I may have missed, tell me!
And if you’d like to tell a friend about the Paper, please do:
See you next week and don’t forget to buy some fun, beautiful homegoods from our friend Andrew in Ukraine. A cocktail party attendee who also happens to be a Subscriber texted me a picture of a fabulous, big felt fish (!) that looks quite handsome on her coffee table. Table runner? Trivet? Coaster? Objet? All of the above.
Hope you will watch some more hearings and… see you next week.
Lauren
