THE WEEKEND EDIT NOVEMBER 18TH

Good morning! Thank you for joining me for the Weekend Edit. My house looks like the Homegoods stockroom on a Sunday evening. I know because I was there last weekend and it took me 25 minutes to purchase 5 must-have items. Lucky for me I was in line behind the nicest lady and we ended up talking for the entire length of the queue. And then I realized …

I am my mother. My mom has the personality to start a conversation with a stranger with two hearing aids while in an elevator. My mom connects with strangers who don’t speak English as their first language. I attribute this skill to her personality and she is a retired nurse.

I, on the other hand, avoid chit-chat. Maybe my mom is on to something because I met a woman who was on her first errand without a post-neck surgery collar. I think we both walked away with a smile in our hearts and our must-have Homegoods finds.

QUESTION:

What did you do/say that made you realize you had become your mom?

If you like this question make sure to check out these conversation starters over the holidays. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday with friends, family or neighbors or strangers if you have dinner reservations.

PS The roasted chicken at Season 52 would be perfect for Thanksgiving. I think it comes with sides!
