Tuesday Things.
1. I still need plants in our new house! Like, greenery. Do fiddle leaf figs scream “I’m too much of a millenial?” Can I get a lemon tree for inside my kitchen? I need to know these things.
2. Been on a big potato soup kick over here.
3. My obsession with all things Valentine’s Day is off the charts. Can I wear red and pink hearts forever.
4. Love the idea of writing a personal contract.
5. TV things!! I can’t find anything to watch. I need a new very bingeable show please.
6. I can’t believe I’m even saying this. Because I hate true crime things, especially scary things, especially since having kids. But I discovered the podcast called Love Marry Kill and have been listening to a few episodes and got hooked. I don’t even know who I am anymore.
7. 10 important time management principles.
8. Why is getting hiccups as an adult about 89 times worse than when you’re a kid?

Two shows I recently watched and enjoyed are One Day At A Time and Upload. I’m watching Melissa & Joey right now and it’s good to fill the time.
I just recently watched and recommend One Day At A Time and Upload. I’m currently watching Melissa & Joey and it’s pretty good for filling in the time.
I just started watching Fisk on Netflix. Australian comedy – dry quirky and witty. Loving it. Have recommended it to a few people and all thumbs up so far.Â
I loved Fisk! So funny and I liked the 2nd season even more than the first.
I live in Rochester, NY, so similar climate/sun. I had a meyer lemon tree – they’re very finicky and take a few years to produce fruit. Mine finally produced 2 lemons after 2 years and then died within the next 6 months. No idea why! I babied it, read all about how to care for lemon trees, etc, and it still died! So if you’re going for it, just know they take a lot of care.
My fiddle leaf fig is still going strong. Plants that have grown like crazy for me – prayer, chinese money (aka pilea), wandering jew, christmas cactus, snake, and orchids if you have a lot of light (like your kitchen window; mine have done well in my kitchen window, sunroom & bathroom with skylight).
YES! You should get a lemon tree for inside your kitchen! I have lemon, lime, mango, and orange trees on my sunporch, which is right off of my kitchen. My herbs are out there too so it’s really helpful to be able to grab fresh things for cooking throughout the year. It doesn’t get super cold here very often so I just move things inside whenever it dips below 35° in there.
I also get super mad when I get hiccups! I always say I’m too old to get them.
It’s old but Gilmore Girls is so bingeable!! We watched the whole series, including the newest one and loved it. It’s light and happy…unlike so many others shows.
that is what i’ve been binging for months!! it’s the best.
hey girl- love the list! I have been watching Providence on Youtube. The show came on in 1999. I watched some of it then. But now started from the first episode. Oh it is so good! A prime time drama- Do u remember the show back in the day?
The afterparty on AppleTV is really good!
Death and Other Details, Casual and Love Me on Hulu, Fellow Travelers, Upload, 5 Bedrooms on Peacock, Life and Beth, season 2 coming in February.
I’m Gen X and have 2 fiddle leaf figs…so go for it! Try a Rubber plant, closet plant (also called Peace lily), the holiday cacti, Philodendron – all fast and easy growers. Inside citrus trees are nice, especially the smell when they bloom but are very finicky and not big producers. Good luck!
Don’t start with Fiddle Leaf only because they are hard to keep healthy and you don’t need the stress :) Start with monstera, snake plants, pothos and zz plant. You cannot hurt these and only need to water weekly… or less. You could probably do citrus in a sunny spot, too!Â
For a show, we just watched and LOVED slow Horses on Apple+… really, really great. And Shrinking on Apple+ If you need a comedy!Â
Can you please post your recipe for Lasagna soup,I tried to piece together and it was good, but I m certain an exact recipe from you would be best, thanks so much!
“Based on a True Story” with Kaley Cuoco and “Dead to Me” with Christina Applegate
Yes get a lemon tree for you kitchen!
Hi Jessica!
Thanks so much for you shout-out to Love Marry Kill! I have been a big fan of you and your cute family for years. It really made my day!
I love my fiddle leaf but my Monstera and Zz plants are stunners and ask so little from me!
Yay for loaded baked potato soup. If I make that and peasant bread for dinner, everyone is happy.
Binging Bravo shows is my guilty pleasure. Peacock is the one streaming service we will never cancel for that reason.
Thanks again!
Lots of love from Michigan,
Tina
We just finished The Trust on Netflix and really enjoyed it!
Starstruck on HBO!!! She is so funny and it’s light and fun but still well done. Very bingeable
I am a plant plant addict. I killed a gifted lemon tree, but also totally want to get another one. I also want to get a Bayleaf tree. My fiddle leaf has been so easy and happy in his spot. They aren’t as scary as people make them out to be (and also knocking on wood just in case he heard me). Ted Lasso, and lessons in chemistry. We’re both fabulous on Apple TV.
YESSS on these show recommendations. Ted Lasso is awesome, have watched the series through many times. Lessons in Chemistry – so good.
The Detectorists is fun, a little wacky and you might need subtitles. Shrinking on Apple TV is good. Your Honor is a good one. Bad Sisters (Apple TV)) dark, but good.
Lemon tree in your kitchen for sure!!! I had a mini one for 3 years and it was indoors during the winter, outdoor in the summer and so easy to maintain (until it wasn’t…). Now I have a mini kumquat. The flower are AMAZING! And it’s so fun to grow something you can eat
