This restaurant, Yellow Bittern, sounds like my kind of place for lunch, which is the most important meal of the day I think. (the? unsure from this article) Cool attitude, though the emphasis on bread and wine at my age might be challenging. I like the idea of pies: fowl or apple equally interesting. And a good place for those books. Couldn't find a menu so just guessed.

The New York Times · The London Restaurant the Yellow Bittern Serves Up Stews and ControversyBy Amelia Nierenberg
In these challenging times, it’s more important than ever to hold onto values like empathy, compassion, kindness, and self-care.

Here’s a very short snippet of my song It’s Okay—the full version is available on my YouTube channel.

This song opens my album Cats & Coffee Cups, which was inspired by The Comfort Book by Matt Haig, one of my favorite authors. Critics have described his book as “a giant hug,” and I hope this song feels the same. Written in February 2022, It’s Okay is about being kind to yourself. It also sets the tone for the entire album—because “It’s okay” might just be the most comforting phrase in the universe.

I created Cats & Coffee Cups to bring a sense of comfort during difficult times—the same comfort I was seeking in 2022 when the world felt overwhelming. I know many people can relate to that feeling, and I hope these songs offer a little hope, solace, and faith.

Alongside the original album, there’s also Cats & Coffee Cups Bonus Songs and Cats & Coffee Cups Expanded Edition—all available on Bandcamp.
