make-believe: summer date.

All I really want is a not-so-fancy date night with a plateful of delicious food I didn’t cook and the ability to stay out past my bedtime. But while I’m daydreaming, I’ll also take:

a patchworked skirt made from vintage tablecloths.

a perfect bandeau for wearing with it.

these summery slides.

this particular plateful of chana tostada chaat from a neighborhood pop-up.

this madder gingham turned into a tablecloth or maybe something else entirely.

a thick brass cuff for adornment.

TAKE ACTION:

In an effort to ground this make-believing in something a bit more down to earth, here’s something that needs urgent attention:

Pick up the phone and call your senators! 202-318-1885 Tell them how important supporting a big, bold climate bill is as they work on this summer’s budget reconciliation.

Here are the four key demands: 1) A Clean Electricity Standard that cuts pollution and modernizes our grid. 2) Directing 40% of funding to frontline communities. 3) No more subsidies for fossil fuel corporations. 4) A Civilian Climate Corps that puts people to work.

Head to #Call4Climate to learn more about the specifics and help spread the word. Every single phone call helps.
