Happy MONDAY! Welcome to the very first issue of Cafe Crumbs, a newsletter meant to be enjoyed as your bi-weekly whimsy with a coffee in hand. (Or perhaps a decaf tea because my type B already missed our Monday morning deadline).

I’m so excited to finally have a cozy home for all the incredible things happening in this community!

I want to use this newsletter as a space for my paid subscribers to highlight all of your thoughtful and special crowdsourced recommendations that you kindly share with all of us in the chat, feature a mini-interview with member of the community (there are SO many incredible people in Club Crumbs that I needed a place to show them off!!!), share my bi-weekly hyperfixations and recs, and a little bit about my most recent dinner party with some decor + food links to inspire you to host more! But before we really dive in….


…Introducing: the Crumbs Card

This is just a funny visual dw

No don’t worry, it’s not a weird new credit card or anything that I’m suddenly trying to brand. (Could you actually imagine if I tried to come out with my own credit card)

Starting this issue, every two weeks I’m going to gift a paid member who helped recommend something in the chat a $150 gift card to a restaurant that was also recommended that week. I might even pair you with someone else in the community I think you should meet- a little friend dinner date on me. Don’t worry though, I’ll disclose this in email, not publicly.

The recs you guys send as replies in the daily chat are genuinely so thoughtful + produced purely out of the love of community, and I want to reward and connect more of you for sharing!

And as a note, if we end up loving this, I’ll invest more into a full on friend dinner date program outside of just my Club Crumbs events because so many of you would get along beautifully. But for now….


Crumbs Community Chat- bi-weekly recommendations

My favorite threads, summarized from your incredible crowdsourced recommendations! All of these will also be living in a searchable tool to be accessed 24/7 very soon on my paid members hub on my website!
