I’ve had an insane few days (more like months) and this morning, in between two meetings, I nipped down the street to my local breakfast spot and took myself out to brunch on a whim. It was fucking lovely 🥰

Love it — I’m also a big fan of the diner counter solo meal. I try and do it once every couple weeks to break up the routine of either bringing lunch from home or buying a $72 salad in NYC.

Here’s to ridding ourselves of the sad desk lunch for good!

Isn’t it though? I’m on the west coast but work for a NYC agency. Went out for coffee with a new team member who lives nearby. First time I’ve seen a coworker IRL in almost a year. I practically cried.

My favorite thing about traveling for work used to be finding a great restaurant wherever I was going, sitting down at the bar by myself, and having a drink and meal. So underrated.
