Claire Saffitz: 'I have no real brand loyalty when it comes to shampoo or conditioner, and frequently shop the hair aisle at Whole Foods. I am definitely a wash-and-go kind of person and rarely heat style. I do very little to maintain my look.'
I do more work after the podcast, catch up with my mom and sister on the phone, then do some dishes and tidy my kitchen. I feel grounded and organized. After dinner I have cookies and milk and relax on the couch. I go to bed without doing my laundry . My lovely nextdoor neighbor texts to say she made a French press of coffee and offers me some. She stops by and we chat.
I answer a bunch of emails, make a few calls and complete some administrative tasks that I’ve been putting off. I acquired some avoidant tendencies over the course of the pandemic and I am trying to work my way out of them. I eat one of my favorite lunches: a cold turkey sandwich from the bodega on my corner. The order is always the same. It's turkey on a roll, un-toasted, no cheese, with lettuce, tomato, onion and spicy mustard and mayonnaise.
Later in the afternoon, my friend Emily stops by to say hello before going on a date. I do her makeup: a subtle smokey eye, highlighted skin and a nude lip. She looks great and I think about how much more fun it is to do makeup on someone else than yourself. Emily convinces me to meet her later for dinner so she can tell me about her date. Considering I haven’t left the house much this week, I agree.
