Feel Good Friday: Lunch Doodles, Free Audiobooks, and the Best Soup

As the reality of Covid-19 is now the new normal, we at Simply Recipes are looking for brief respites from the anxiety and uncertainty that threatens to overwhelm. We need life-affirming reminders of the power of hope, humor, and humanity in the midst of this crisis, and we're guessing you do, too! Welcome to Week Two of our Feel Good Friday newsletter, wherein I share some of the more cheering or compelling things I've read or watched this week. Have you discovered something great recently? A favorite new podcast? Something you read that made you smile? Tell me about it! Email it to me at cambria[at]simplyrecipes.com with the title "Feel Good Friday." What We're Reading This Week: Quarantined Berklee College of Music students come together virtually to perform "Love Sweet Love." Mo Willems' Lunch Doodles series is delightful and wonderful for kids. Audible is streaming hundreds of stories and books for free while schools around the country are closed. A beautiful poem for the times. Love to dance and move your body? Dance Church live-streams on Sunday mornings. Yale's super popular "happiness" class is now free online. "In weekly installments, [the] lectures dole out advice on building personal happiness and productive habits, stressing not only the importance of mental wellbeing but also practical ways to achieve it," as described here. And finally, my favorite filling, feel-good, pantry-staple soup right now. Have a safe and healthy weekend. ~ Cambria Product and Lifestyle Director Trouble reading this email?  View in browser Feel Good Friday: Lunch Doodles, Free Audiobooks, and the Best Soup As the reality of Covid-19 is now the new normal, we at Simply Recipes are looking for brief respites from the anxiety and uncertainty that threatens to overwhelm.
