Welcome to another beautiful newsletter full of things to do, people to see, places to be, and the occasional restaurant or movie rec. (Sorry guys, I love what I love.) And BTW I read all your responses, which is dangerous because now I know exactly what you people are into too.

And apparently, you’re into staycations. Like, really into staycations.

So yes, I went a little overboard and put together $1K+ worth of staycation prizes: a night at The Muse, cocktails at Little Opus, live music at The Pocket, a couples spa experience at AIRE Ancient Baths, AND $50 at Malai. Enter to win!

• It’s National Coffee Day, so we’re quite literally buzzinggg. Celebrate accordingly with 15 of our favorite espresso martinis, because if you need coffee after 5PM, you better believe it’s coming with vodka.
