Eat, Drink, Be Merry!
A maxim, a calling, a directive for the good life.
Greetings Gorgeous,
This week’s summer solstice portal has ushered in my birthday season and I have a gift for you! Come celebrate with me! Beauty in the World guest, longtime friend, and muse Carrington, has kindly gifted Venus of the Mind readers an evergreen 10% off code for anyone who wants to explore non-alcoholic wine. She’s partnered as an affiliate with Zero Proof Wine Shop through code WITHCARRINGTON.
Our book club is meeting Thursday, July 16 at 1pm EST. We’ll be delving into Alicia Kennedy’s On Eating: The Making and Unmaking of My Appetites. Super excited to share that we’ll be joined by Alicia as well! Rich in life because I get to chat with one of my favorite authors, alongside some of my favorite people, during one of my favorite months!
Libations to Venus and a good book talk. That’s how we party around these parts.
I will soon be 33!

Double numbers are so fun. I was once 11, then 22, and next week 33!
Cheers to many more years because aging favors the insatiable!
You’re Invited
