Movie recommendation: The Woman King (Netflix)
Wow! Viola Davis and so many others are incredible in this movie! Not only does it bring to light the history of this group of women warriors, but I love seeing how community, in general, used to be such a big part of how people lived and had their being.

The Humble Brilliance of Italy’s Moka Coffee Pot
I’ve wanted one of these cute little coffee makers (pictured left) for years and finally got one this past Christmas.
I love using it with an instant milk frother (pictured right) to make my special weekend lattes. It’s cheaper and more fun than a big fancy espresso machine!
