Hi everyone, welcome back to Baton Paper Podcast. I'm Becca Freeman. And I'm Olivia Mentor.

And I am so excited for today's episode. We've never done this before, but we have a bunch

of our favorite books to grammar on today to give reading recommendations to help inform our

summer reading lists. I have to say that these little mini interviews we've been doing have been

just absolutely delightful. It's going to be great. Can I wait for you to hear? It's also been

problematic because I now have far too many new books that I need to buy. Same, so many, so many.

Well, let's get into it. Before we get to our mini guests, what's your high? My high is that I am

approaching month four of not ordering delivery or seamless, which at one point in my life seemed

truly physically impossible, but kind of proud of myself there. Olivia, I am flabbergasted. I am at

the point in my life where I cannot even imagine that. That's where I was. I was like, you will have

to pry this from my cold dead hands. I will not give up this convenience ever. Have you learned

anything about yourself? I've learned that I have to plan meals. And I have to have a good balance

of healthy, nutritionally balanced options and also just comfort food. I can't fill my fridge

with only vegetables and expect to just be completely satisfied. I need some pizza. I need some

frozen ramen. I need options. Do you regret it? No, no. It saves us so much money. The best way

to motivate yourself, if you go in and you calculate the amount that you spend on it, it's truly

horrifying or at least it was for us. I don't want to know that. That's not my business. Anyway,

we did it mainly just to save money. And I should say we still do get takeout. We just walk and

pick it up. It's not like we've quit all takeout or eating out. That would actually kill me.

I think I actually did accidentally say once on an episode that I quit takeout and delivery.

I felt bad because I really met it's just delivery. Anyway, still proud of that little change.

Yeah. You should be. What is your high? I'm going to London tomorrow. It's very exciting.
