Now that I’ve moved into a new place, I’m learning to love staying in. In my hectic world of nightly events, article deadlines, and perpetual meetings, I rarely get to spend a night at home by myself, and when I do I relish it. Especially as the weather gets colder, there’s nothing quite as comforting as snuggling up in a fur blanket with a good book.
I keep a few silk robes on hand for when I feel like lounging around the house like an old movie star, making dramatic proclamations and fainting languidly onto the couch. This is one of my favorites. 
The surprise here is that I’m actually reading about firing squads. A delightful little excerpt from Execution.
