#BreakThings: 406 Day

04.06.21

Today is 406 Day, Montana’s unofficial birthday celebration.

For most Americans, my home state is the setting for books, television shows and movies.  It’s a place they visit to ski, or where that move to escape a pandemic.  It is wild, remote, and unforgiving — part travel brochure, part myth.

But to those of us who call this place home, Montana is coded into our DNA.  We cannot escape her. She is gravity.

I was born on this ground. And God willing, I will be buried in this ground.

Have you ever thought, “I need to say something,” but you just can’t get the words out? Human Parts discusses the challenge of ‘saying the quiet part out loud’ and being honest when you need to be. It’s good food for thought.

Working from home has obliterated necessary workplace boundaries. Marie Claire discusses how the breaking of walls — like work hours — has caused increasing incidences of workplace harassment and bullying.

Because how many of us need to be answering an email at 2:00AM or defending what time we take lunch?

I love Boden’s swimwear. Great bikinis and tankinis, but this one piece is a vintage-inspired stunner. Can’t wait for a little summer pool time.

This tomatillo-fueled Green Bloody Mary is perfect for spring and summer. Sip one at a backyard brunch or on your patio on a Saturday afternoon. It’s a cocktail and a salad in one. Thanks, Zestful Kitchen.
