Today, I took in: 

the first section of “The Black Family in the Age of Mass Incarceration” in Ta-Nehisi Coates’ We Were Eight Years in Power

the first few chapters of The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin

several episodes of the second season of GLOW

the rest of Poirot: Sad Cypress

I made:

a simple lunch I used to make all the time when I lived in Rome, which made me nostalgic

a post-lunch snooze in the sun of the garden
