I recently had a small win but I wasn’t allowing I recently had a small win but I wasn’t allowing myself to celebrate it. It was not what I had wanted and I felt almost grumpy about it? I definitely called it a consolation prize more than once. After sitting on the news (and feeling conflicted/grumpy?) for a few weeks, I finally came to my senses and realized I was simply withholding joy from myself (which is silly!). Last weekend, I got to finally celebrate a little with dinner at @jujuberestaurant . I’ll share more (hold me to it plz) but our favorites were the cocktails and the spicy oyster mushroom curry soup (we almost didn’t order the latter because I didn’t think it sounded good—Another lesson for Ju to be less stubborn)! I don’t venture out to chapel hill enough because I think it’s farther than it really is so it was lovely to spend an evening there! #hosted Do you have a small win you want to share? What all am I missing out on in chapel hill?!
Because I’m obsessed, I’m sharing more about @ Because I’m obsessed, I’m sharing more about @lettersbookshop’s Sidecar book subscription! Each month, you get two books that are selected just for you based on your preferences. I’ve been loving opening the package every month and finding out about books and authors I hadn’t heard of! Letters Bookshop is based locally in Durham, NC but they ship nationwide! I wrote a blog post with more details (https://betterwithju.com/letters-bookshop-sidecar-book-subscription) but let me know if there are any questions I can answer! I would love to hear what book subscription you use or where you typically get your books from. My “Books are My Love Language” sweatshirt is from @bookshelftees 📖🥰♥️ #Bookstagram #BookMail #BookSubscriptionBox #TriangleBookstaGals #AsianBookstagrammer #BookReels #Durm #BullCity #DurhamNC #ShopLocalNC #NorthCarolinaLiving #IndependentBookstore #UsedBooks #NCBookLovers #DiversifyYourBookshelf #ReadDiverseBooks #NCBlogger #RaleighBlogger

Hi, friends! I’m resurfacing on your feed after Hi, friends! I’m resurfacing on your feed after a few weeks off because to be honest, I’ve been struggling lately. 2022 has been hard and I keep joking about how I’m falling apart but I might not be joking?! Anyways, I got overwhelmed with posting on IG and now it’s almost been a month since I last posted, which is the longest I’ve gone without posting I think! Instead of coming back with regular programming, I wanted to share how I’ve been feeling in case it resonates with anyone and I think it makes me feel better too. Hope everyone is doing well and sending hugs to everyone! P.S. Alex and I went to @alleytwentysix and I FINALLY tried the infamous burger and I’m happy to report that it lived up to the hype for me! 🍔♥️
We did a belated Mother’s Day celebration today! We did a belated Mother’s Day celebration today! Featuring: flowers from the farmer’s market and brunch turned lunch, and boba from @chahousecary 🧋 Not pictured: all the BTS gifts from @sujungchronicles and our brother who actually exists and was present today. Huge thanks to @vangflowers for the beautiful bouquet (only $20!!!) and @lucky32cary for accommodating our large group without a reservation. P.S.
