• Drift on to your local bookstore
• Have a second latte
• Buy the kitschy romance novel you’ve been meaning to all along
• Or a book of poems by Frank O’Hara
• Pick out your favorite flowers
• Fondle their velvet tips, admiring scent & color
• Brew any potion that excites you
• Create an altar of your favorite candles
• Light them; watch them drip away
• Text someone your favorite thing about them
• Recite an incantation of your deepest (and maybe darkest) desires
• Doodle on blank stationery
• Turn your art into a love note for a friend
• Indeed, watch Call Me By Your Name
• Cry a bit
• Then, eat a peach
• Dance around to Songs From The Big Chair, Tears for Fears
• Bake cookies with loads of butter, chocolate chips, and sprinkles (sprinkles spark joy)
• Sink into a sea of warm blankets
• Read until you’re left starry-eyed
