What are you up to this weekend? The boys and I are going to our neighborhood block party, and I\u2019m excited for Sharon Horgan\u2019s new show<\/a>, which comes out on Sunday. Hope you have a good one, and here are a few fun links from around the web\u2026<\/p>\n

Jon Hamm\u2019s new series, American Hostage<\/a>, looks compelling.<\/p>\n

Chicken au poivre<\/a>. (NYTimes gift link)<\/p>\n

Reader-favorite Old Navy just launched a new\u00a0sport activewear\u00a0line called ON Sport<\/a>, and it\u2019s really good. You could live in\u00a0this sweatshirt<\/a>, and\u00a0this green plaid<\/a> looks so much more expensive\u00a0than it is.<\/p>\n

Updated Jane Austen titles<\/a>, hahaha. (New Yorker)<\/p>\n

What if online dating wasn\u2019t<\/em> awful<\/a>? \u201cIn Ramy Youssef\u2019s 2026 HBO comedy special, In Love<\/em>, he jokes that every guy he knows who should be married is married, and every guy he knows who should be single\u2026 is single: \u2018None of them got a job, phone always dead, one hoodie.\u2019 Off screen, you can hear the audience cackle along knowingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seven-year-old chess prodigy Lucie Pichard casually checkmates her opponent<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How to give good advice? Talk less<\/a>.<\/p>\n

These paintings of water droplets<\/a> are mesmerizing.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a good day to restock your makeup bag: ILIA<\/a> is 20% off site-wide (I swear by their mascara<\/a>), and Tarte is offering $206 worth of makeup for $62<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I think about this 2016 blog post<\/a> every month of my adult life. Should be required reading.<\/p>\n

Finally, an enormous giveaway<\/a> for Big Salad\u2019s third birthday, open to all subscribers (free and paid), as a way to say thank you. xoxo <\/p>\n

Plus, three reader comments:<\/p>\n

Says Karin on five pick-me-ups<\/a>: \u201cLast night, apropos of nothing, my 11-year-old started talking about her \u2018loose g-string.\u2019 My husband and I looked at each other, stunned\u2026until we realized she was talking about her stand-up bass in orchestra.\u201d<\/p>\n

Says Elisabeth on what\u2019s your dream date<\/a>: \u201cA few months ago, our schedules aligned so my husband and I could donate blood together. It was really sweet how everyone there made a fuss to get us two beds next to each other. Granted it only took 15 minutes but we got free sausages afterward and made the most of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Says Peach on five pick-me-ups<\/a>: \u201cStephen Colbert once asked Keanu Reeves what happens to us when we die, and he responded, \u2018I know that the ones who love us will miss us.’\u201d Adds SanFrannie: \u201cStephen Colbert\u2019s musing on his mother\u2019s death captured my feelings perfectly: \u2018I know it may sound greedy to want more days with a person who lived so long, but the fact that my mother was 92 does not diminish it; it only magnifies the enormity of the room whose door has now quietly shut.’\u201d<\/p>\n
