5 Things I’d Tell You Over Coffee This June ’25

It’s the first weekend of the month, so I‘m linking up with Coco and Deborah for the Ultimate Coffee Date. It’s hard for me to believe that it’s already June.

What is the Ultimate Coffee Date? Imagine we are having coffee together… this post is what I would tell you. So grab a cup, “listen” and then tell me what is going on with you in the comments, please!

If we were having coffee… I’d say we should get a donut with our coffee to celebrate National Donut Day. I’d probably only have a few bites. Donuts are one sweet that I can take or leave. How about you?

If we were having coffee… Speaking of donuts, I’m leading a Donut Run 5K fun run tomorrow. We run and stop at 3 donut shops where we split donuts in thirds or quarters and grab a coffee at the last stop. Why? Why not? My friends Tahnee and Jen started this during COVID but they had full donuts and decided that was too much! Can’t picture it? Here’s a reel from out last donut run in September.

If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that I just finished an online botanical drawing class with a talented artist in Ecuador organized by Fernanda. I found it to be fun and challenging. The coolest part was noticing all of the trees and plants blooming in Chicago and all of the nuances that I’ve previously ignored. I’d ask if you’ve taken up anything new lately.

If we were having coffee… I’d tell you that we’re watching Yellowjackets and it’s really fun – and totally unhinged. Loving the flashbacks to 1990s New Jersey. I’d ask what you’re watching right now.

If we were having coffee… I’d ask what you’re reading or listening to. I’m reading Your Table is Ready: Tales of a New York City Maitre D by Michael Checci-Azzolina for book club. Not a favorite but I’m making my way through it. I’m listening to Famous Last Words by Gillian Macallister which is very entertaining. I’d ask if you had any recommendations.

If we were having coffee… I’d ask “what’s happening by you?” Please tell me in the comments!
