If you’re venturing out, triple-check the opening status, entry requirements, and safety protocols for both your destination and home city upon your return. Be safe out there. [] Good morning! I’m so glad you’re here. Tuesdays can feel like a piece of burnt toast sitting on the counter of a harshly lit kitchen at an abandoned rec center in rural Poland. Tuesdays are the Februarys of the week, the taupe of days. Even so, we have to do our best to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps and show the world we kind of care, in spite of everything. May flowers grow at your feet, may your cup be filled with sustaining and nourishing bone broth, may your fits be crisp, and may you never pull a muscle while going to tie your shoe (easier said than done). I know you will make it through Tuesday, climb onto the gossamer butterfly wings of Wednesday, and fly towards your dreams. Today’s topics are all over the map. The Northern Lights. Vegetarian congee. The joys of milk frothing. A new job at Disney. And, finally, the best ways to upgrade your outdoor space, even as the temperature plummets. I’m off to make the most of it and stare into my reflection in the Gowanus Canal for some introspective insight. I think I’ll wear my mask, not because introspective water-gazing is a high-risk COVID situation, but because I don’t really know what’s in the Gowanus Canal and it’s best to stay safe.

But we also need to remember that fire pits are not just symbolic of our confusing and at times alienating contemporary moment. They’re also very pleasant in and of themselves, and they make the experience of the outdoors cozy, fragrant, and fun.
