Happy Friday, everyone! Hope you have a fun weekend planned — if you’re in Spokane, I hope you’re safe from the wildfires and that the air quality isn’t too awful.
We took this week off from Drinks With Broads, while Heather is on vacay, but! We did have our final (for now!) Game Changers book club meeting. (You can read all of those here, if you want to catch up.) We’ll be back to normal posting cadence this upcoming week.
Here at GFY, I presented a bunch of little delights for summer, and we also rounded up a bunch of the best scent-less beauty items. Plus: The return of What Are You Reading? and we discussed the best ways to downsize.

If you, like me, are in the process of replacing all your old J.Crew silk blouses because you’ve literally worn them out, this new button-up from them is very nice. For a while, their version of this shirt was really shiny but this fabric is really nice. (It’s VERY oversized, FYI. Feel free to size down.)
This is wild and I look forward to the movie: It’s Astounding: ‘Rocky Horror’ Threats Came From Troupe’s Musical Director, Cops Say. Just quit, you doofus!
I LOL’ed at this and honestly believed it until I saw the publication: Ring Launches Streaming Service

I devoured — no pun intended — this Reddit thread: People with suspected or confirmed cyclosporiasis cases, what food do you think you got it from? I just wanna eat a salad! (Although so far California is doing okay. I’m just not trying to be Patient Zero here!)
The NYT runs down the 50 Best Thrillers of the 21st Century. I’ve read 17 — this is a GREAT list! I love a thriller, I’m gonna work my way through the rest of these.
