Just thinking about how lucky I was to get to visit Gloria Steinem in NYC this past summer. What an icon and what a memory I’ll always cherish.

Imagine if Elon gave even a fraction of his wealth like Dolly did—to help people read, to get a leg up, to help combat racism, to help science, etc. Be a Dolly in a sea of tech dude bros with names like Elon.

I have always wanted to see the costume exhibit at The Met, so that’s what I did before leaving NYC!

Y’all……it’s not every day that you meet an icon who helped bring discussions of sexism, domestic violence, workplace discrimination, reproductive rights, and gender equality into mainstream media. Thank you to Gloria Steinem, her team, and Random House!!!!

21 days, 8 flights, 4 countries, 3 train rides, 2 ferries, and 1 rental car and we will be home tonight as soon as Jason picks us up from the NOLA airport. I wanted to give Josie the trip of a lifetime and show her there’s so much out there to explore beyond our town. Stay tuned for next week. 😉

Christ Church Cathedral was founded in 1030 by vikings and it stands as the city's oldest working structure. Its choir even performed at the 1742 world premiere of Handel's Messiah on nearby Fishamble Street!

#1 library on my bucket list: Old Library at Trinity College in Dublin. I thought I’d be upset with most of the books gone for refurbishment but the interactive displays explaining the process was actually quite fascinating to see. It’s beautiful.

Dublin asks artists each year to paint the electrical traffic light boxes around the city. These are a few we spotted. I am OBSESSED with Normal People (book by Sally Rooney and show on Hulu with Paul Mescal and Daisy Edgar-Jones) and gasped when I saw that one. dublin.ie/live/stories...

We ate at The Brazen Head, Ireland’s oldest pub (est 1707) and this is the best meal I’ve ever had in my entire life. I’m serious. Ham, mashed potatoes, cabbage, and root vegetable purée with parsley sauce.

I finally saw Chatsworth House, the backdrop for Mr. Darcy’s estate in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice. The gorgeous home and massive grounds filled with gardens and animals made the long drive completely worth it.

I have a notebook where I write down quotes I hear at conferences and events. Found this gem today from my friend @drtlovesbooks.bsky.social. It was a much needed reminder of what one person can do as an individual.

Did y’all think the Josie and Mom Epic UK/Euro Adventure was over because we left Scotland? Nah, son. We’re still in the UK and today was EPIC and involved Mr. Darcy, driving on the wrong side of the road, and lambs. More later!
