Bits & Bobs

While on my mini sabbatical, I read and loved The Correspondent by Virginia Evans — it is so good. Bottega Veneta’s large Campana is the perfect tote. I just picked up The Row’s ballet flats in pale sage. They are my nod to the white shoe trend. Did you read about the woman who lived to 117? Yep, she ate a Mediterranean diet. This cookbook is on its way to me. When I spied these Belgian-esque loafers in the Celine SS26 runway images my heart skipped a beat.

I loved The Correspondent so much I didn’t want to finish it!
The Correspondent is my top pick of 2025. Incredible. It was fun to learn that the author went to my alma mater. Love Bits & Bobs!
I am the biggest fan of “Bits & Bobs” and this post didn’t disappoint. The tote is exquisite. I did buy the cookbook and can’t wait to read The Correspondent!
And she ate three yogurts a day!!
I’ve been recommending The Correspondent to all my fiction loving friends. One of my favorite books this year. It has a wonderful Elizabeth Strout sensibility.
Happy fall to Miss Preston and KIC!
Thank you for the cookbook recommendation! After a couple of weeks of Mediterranean dining while on a lovely trip, I never felt so good in my life. Count me in! I welcome the recent spotlight and discussions on Americans’ health.
