Hello, friends and new friends! Every now and then I like to share a photo of myself to remind you who’s up early and writing to you every Sunday morning! It’s Jacaranda season in Australia! The world around us is bursting into purple.
A quick intro — I’m Catherine Greer, author of two picture books , Jacaranda Snow (wow, huge sale on this today in Australia!!) and Violin & Cello, plus other books for women, like The 10 Minute Fix and Small Steps are Perfect. This year I signed a book deal for my first adult novel…a dream come true!
Ready for the two things I’ve heard recently?
The first is a poem by Miller Williams, and it’s brilliant.
The second is a lovely nod to all our friends and the people we love, by poet and handlettering artist, Lori Heteen. You can follow Lori here.
I know the news is worse than terrible, but one thing will always be true: we’re in this together, and there’s still beauty and joy if we look for it.
If today you’re feeling fabulous or a little off-key, I hope something wonderful happens to you.
Thank you for reading, and I’m wishing you a beautiful weekend filled with texts and calls and cups of coffee with all the people you’ve been given to love.

PS. The fun stuff!
Voilin & Cello will be featured on Playschool this Thursday! For all my Canadian and American friends, that’s like Australia’s Sesame Street, Mr Rogers and Mr Dressup. So cute!
Reporting back on the quick bread from last weekend: a total failure. Can someone please send me a bread recipe that works?? Just hit reply to this email!
Reporting back on the skims-dupe bra…so great! Run, don’t walk, ladies. So comfortable! Probably best if you’re a C cup or under.
Tonight I’m trying the Moroccan Chicken with Chickpeas from Recipe Tin Eats. I’ll let you know if we love it.
