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

Life has been going at full sprint recently! As soon as I got back from Bend last week, I drove straight to the airport to pick up my mom for my commencement ceremony (!). Since then, I literally haven’t sat down outside of work and internship, but I’ve also felt so creative and energized, thanks to good hangs with friends, lots of exciting projects, and a couple of particularly fulfilling days. Read on for highlights from every day this week, plus:

  • A favorite vintage store and brunch spot in Portland

  • My travel plans, and the international trip I left for on Friday (!)

  • A recipe for a coconut water-matcha pick-me-up
