Emily in France 🇫🇷 Happy Weekend Confinement!

TGIF!

My weekends don't usually look like weekends... but during confinement, I'm trying to change that.

Because I work for myself, I often find myself treating weekend days just like any other day. It's a bad habit and one I'm going to try to rectify, especially now. Since every day already feels the same, it seems even more important to take the weekend to have a break, open a bottle of wine, and read a book. Or something. Here are just a few ideas.

1. Scroll through Instagram and get inspired by some Parisian chefs cooking from home. (I rounded up 23 great ones for Paris by Mouth.)

2. Read about the weird origin story of the word "Triscuit." (It's a doozy.)

3. Discover some rare pasta shapes – and the chef seeking to preserve them.

4. Daydream of places you've never been.

5. Boost your creative writing skills.

Stay safe, stay INSIDE, and à bientôt !
