The Sunday Edition is Tuesday’s little sister—off-the-cuff updates I’d bring up over a coffee catch-up with a friend.

I really didn’t think I’d be so happy to see the rain come back to Portland, but after a few sunny weeks of near-nightly social plans, I took the weather as a cue to slow way down, with early bedtimes, ample time spent reading, and a solo date to a hot yoga class and sauna that warmed me from the inside-out. Read on for highlights and photos from the week, including:

  • How I balance taking photos with being in the moment

  • The question I often ask strangers while hiking

  • A tip for dispelling jealousy among friends

  • Why I changed my mind about attending my graduation ceremony

  • My favorite seeded bread (that’s so easy to make)
