April Wondering (At a Distance) // 4.23

// wherever you are, we are too.

It’s been a strange and lonely couple of months.

A global pandemic, social isolation, a toilet paper shortage… We’ve all been through a lot. We want to be there for you.

So bring your favorite drink, a story or two to tell about what you’ve been up to the last few weeks, a status report on how you’re holding up, and a smile to share when you see some of your favorite people on a too-small screen connecting us over a too-long distance.

Here’s some of what we’ve been digging into since we saw you last:
