    Welcome back to SOTW!! I took two weeks off to travel in Spain with my best friend (very grateful to be able to do so!!), then recovered from plane illness last week.

    sotw: cinema soup and street-style pork

    This week, one of my coworkers messaged me, “you are slay”. It made my day and while I do generally love being a slay ambassador at work, I will admit that this week did not feel very “slay”. What with impending work deadlines and getting The Bachelor winner spoiled, I had a hard time locking…
