If we lived in a Queendom, your face and mine would look significantly more relaxed! I wish I could join you on the 30th!

WOW love to see Empress Editions pushing out into the world! Sending you BIG love and support. Wish I could join you in Boston, but I'll be at some of the next ones. HEY: you deserve a great big treat to celebrate all your hard work! Massage? Facial? Dream fashion item? Or just a giant plate of truffle fries? I secretly love the Bonne Maman hat, though I don't think most of us should wear it ;) Back in the day I knew a girl whose French grandma used to smear cherry jam all over her face, apparently as an exfoliating mask, like from the fruit acids??? She had great skin.

PS I interviewed Dr Lenz for Womancake, and I think she's a powerful GenX force for good in the Menospace. https://www.womancake.com/p/suzanne-gilberg-lenz-burns-with-cool?utm_source=publication-search

So many thoughts here! First, we are trying to get enough people together to do a night in Seattle in the fall! Then we call all hang out and do GIRL THINGS! A giant plate of truffle fries sounds like heaven. And I used to work for a tiny company that made BIG HATS in my 20s called IT HAT TO BE YOU so I am unafraid of crazy chapeaux! I love the idea of the French granny and cherry jam facials. It must look like a horror fest! But yes, fruit acids make total sense! And yes, am a long-time fan of Dr. Suzanne's and finally got to hang out with her in Chicago and it was the most fun, restorative time EVER!

This sounds so fab. I will have to play it by ear as our second pod will be arriving and unpacking and adjusting has been unexpectedly stressful, depressing, awful…

No worries! However, if you need a night off from looking at all your boxes... there will be a little after soiree and I would love to give you a hug. xo
