As I stumble toward winter solstice and the promise of (barely) longer days, I am clinging white-knuckled to each and every ounce of joy I find. Join me?

Mythic Quest on Apple TV+. How did I not know about this show until its third season? One of the main characters is named Poppy. I’m disappointed in myself but I’m not disappointed that now I have three seasons to binge with Shawn because we both think it’s hilarious.
This planner. I love a good list and making plans and setting intentions for 2023 is more enjoyable with the perfect place to write them down.
The You’re Wrong About episodes that feature survival correspondent Blair Braverman. I am mostly an inside cat but I like to listen and learn about outdoorsy stuff and I love listening to Blair Braverman specifically talk about outdoorsy stuff. I followed her on Twitter for her Iditarod stories (again, because I don’t want to do the outdoorsy stuff, I just want to hear about other people doing the outdoorsy stuff) and I’ve been a fan ever since.
I made my Grandma’s Pumpkin Chiffon Pie but instead of making a pie crust, I used 30 pre-made three-inch tart shells from the grocery store. The recipe filled the tart shells perfectly, they tasted great, and overall I was delighted.
Miss Vickie’s Sweet & Spicy Ketchup Chips. I love ketchup chips (my Canadian is showing) so my brother gave me a bag of these and I am hooked. At first I thought the “spicy” part of the name was false advertising because all I taste is sweet with a bit of tangy, but as you continue to eat them, there’s a slow burn that hits you on the finish. A+ chip flavour experience.
