This week Melanie shares a history lesson about Cinco de Mayo that I'm embarrassed I didn't know, I talk about a book that I absolutely loved, and Melanie recaps her weekend in - get ready for it - College Station. Also, I cooked an actual meal for my family, so you'll hear about that too. If all that weren't enough (and it might not be enough, but please don't feel like you need to tell us if that's the case), we break down some viewing / reading goals for the immediate future, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.  Hope you enjoy!  - Join Us on Patreon  - Our Amazon Shop - 2023 Graduation Gift Guide Show Notes: - photos of the coronation - The Royals in a Wes Anderson film - charles-sausage-fingers-swollen-b2334713.html">the King's swollen hands - the man sitting next to Andrew Lloyd Weber at the coronation - our Patreon episode with Elizabeth Passarella - the history of Cinco de Mayo - Ree's beef enchiladas - Ninfa's green sauce - Orleans candle - use code MELANIE15 - Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld - Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus - The Night Agent on Netflix (the show Melanie couldn't remember) - The Diplomat on Netflix - Welcome to Wrexham on Hulu - Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano - Little Women by Louisa May Alcott - The Sum of It All - Ed Sheeran docuseries on Disney+ - Tula J in Trussville, Alabama - FOLEX spot cleaner - linen pull-on shorts (and matching button-up shirt) - Martha wide leg jeans - compression packing cubes - A New Day linen vest Sponsors: - Olive and June (use this link for 20% off your first mani system) - Hello Fresh (use code BIGBOO16 for 16 free meals and free shipping) - Noom (use this link to sign up for your trial) - OSEA (use code BIGBOO for 10% off sitewide)
