Hi there to all who made it to New Year's Eve of 2020! Let's just say it was grueling to say the least. All the more reason to gladly leave it behind and start something new! Since this year has been pretty isolating for everyone, let's pretend we're having coffee together at our breakfast table (which happens to have tulip chairs, by the way...google them if you don't know what they are).
