SINCE CHILDHOOD, I have plastered my walls with tears from my favorite magazines to make wallpaper. I would stare at the imagery for hours while reading (and rereading!) the issues cover to cover and escaping into the pages. At 11 years old, magazines took me on visual journeys through stories of travel, geography, art, and culture as I learned about beauty that exists across the world.

P H OTO GR A P H : G R AY D ON H E R R I OT

Although my taste has shifted from ’80s Calvin Klein ads and Revlon campaigns, I continue subscribe to and read magazines to feel inspired and expand my horizons. It has always been my dream to curate a magazine, and now that I am in my 40s, I am hoping my “timing is everything” motto is true. And here we are with issue No. 1. As you’ll see, this issue revolves around joy. If there are two lessons the past year has taught me, they are that happiness is a choice at every age and stage of life, and it isn’t always on tap. Sometimes you have to fight for it.

But your own happiness is a worthy battle. If you take on the hardest challenges you face and crumble, how do you pick yourself up and become a champion for personal joy? My other questions are, how do you fuel up for that? How do you find your joy and happiness to power up and take on the world every day? Hopefully you’ll find some of the answers to these big questions (and smaller ones too, like what to feed your friends or which lipstick might lift your spirits) in these pages. I hope this magazine can be the escape for you that it is for me because this whole magazine is about YOU and made for YOU. A glossy journey into a world filled with happiness, beauty, love, and, of course, fun. Welcome to Drew! We are honored you are here. xo,

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME In the moment—in my body, in the midst of loved ones, or down the rabbit hole of a fresh idea. FUN SUMMER PLANS Beach camping with my partner and son, an extended trip to see my Georgia-based parents, and using my building’s courtyard for morning dance workout sessions. TOP SNACK OR SIP Sliced cucumbers with lemon pepper. Vinho verde. Literally anything off a grill. EMILY DOUGHERTY Contributing Beauty Editor

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME Any time I can stop and enjoy what I’m doing in the moment. There’s so, so, so much beauty in the world that we miss because we are busy, busy, busy. FUN SUMMER PLANS Hugs. Lots and lots of hugs. TOP SNACK OR SIP Mariage Frères Casablanca iced tea.

JERALYN GERBA Contributing Travel Editor

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME All-day outdoor explorations with friends. FUN SUMMER PLANS Taking a page from my new book, Travel North America (and Avoid Being a Tourist) and doing a Southern road trip. TOP SNACK OR SIP An ice cold lemonade.

NIKOLE HERRIOTT & MICHAEL GRAYDON Photographers

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME Summer breezes, swimming in the ocean, and travel! FUN SUMMER PLANS Lots of time relaxing and cooking with friends outdoors. TOP SNACK OR SIP Difficult to pick a favorite, but maybe a simple white sponge, whipped cream, and summer fruit.

ANTONIA FIGUEIREDO Illustrator

JOANNA BEAN MARTIN Design Director

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME Self-care days with books, good food, cakes, drinks, and my friends. FUN SUMMER PLANS Hopefully traveling. If not, safely spending more time outside in nature and enjoying the warm weather with my friends. TOP SNACK OR SIP Lemonade and barbecues. Yum!

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME Biking on summer nights. Picnics in parks. Long days on the beach at Sauvie Island. Garden dinners. Concerts at Edgefield. FUN SUMMER PLANS Camping and going to Maine to visit family and eating lobster on the dock. TOP SNACK OR SIP A spicy citrusy mezcal drink and panzanella.

4 D R E W SUMMER 2021

JASMINE OU Illustrator

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME A hike in the San Gabriel Mountains. The earlier the better, but a sunset hike is also the perfect way to beat the heat. FUN SUMMER PLANS Growing a garden with zucchini, tomatoes, eggplant, sunflowers, and lavender. More to come! TOP SNACK OR SIP Heirloom tomatoes from our yard or the CSA at California Island Market.

NAZ SAHIN Art Director

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME It’s 9 p.m., it’s still light out, and I am still in my swimsuit. FUN SUMMER PLANS Early morning rowing classes with my mom. Taking the kids fishing. Outdoor showers. TOP SNACK OR SIP Stone fruit. Gin and tonic.

NANA K. TWUMASI Writer

DEFINITION OF A GOOD TIME Going to see live music. Sometimes you have to dance/bang/shake out all your woes. FUN SUMMER PLANS A trip to Palm Desert and anywhere else I can get to. TOP SNACK OR SIP Depends on the situation! For a leisurely afternoon park sit, I like a canned rosé and charcuterie. I’m pretty bougie.

“If you're feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world and wondering how to help, look around where you are right now. You’ll probably see your work appear,” says Anja Tyson. For her, this happened during New York City’s first lockdown in 2020 when she launched neversleeps.nyc, an online resource connecting individuals with ways to help their communities. Created on a Friday night using a free WordPress template, the website gets its name from its hometown and Tyson’s allhours schedule. As a single mom with a full-time career as a sustainability consultant in the fashion industry, Tyson maintains the site on nights and weekends. “I really believe in the importance of building community and sharing resources,” she says. Here, Tyson shares her tips on how you can do the same. Follow along @anjattyson @neversleepsnyc

HOW DOES YOUR GARDEN GROW? WHEN IT COMES TO GARDENING, THIS CROP OF GREEN THUMBERS IS PLANTING NEW IDEAS BY ANNE ICHIKAWA

One of Flamingo Estate’s weekly CSA organic farm boxes

18 D R E W SUMMER 2021

LET’S SEE

STYLISHLY SUSTAINABLE: FLAMINGO ESTATE Atop the highest hill in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Eagle Rock is a pink paradise called Flamingo Estate. Its resident, Richard Christensen, has taken advantage of year-round good weather and outside space to create an ecological urban utopia. A multi-tiered, sprawling garden is home to 150 new botanical species, an orchard, a vegetable garden, and some very hard workers—honeybees. Angelenos can partake in the Estate’s CSA of locally-grown, organic fresh produce. For everyone else, there’s still a lot of goodies to enjoy: soaps, shampoos, candles, and lotions heavenly scented with thoughtful ingredients from Mother Earth. flamingoestate.la

PHOTOGR APHS (C LOCKWISE): PJ MAT TAN, ADRIAN GAUT, COURTESY OF MARCUS BRIDGEWATER, COURTESY OF HALDEN GARDENS

WATERING CAN-DO ATTITUDE: GARDEN MARCUS If Garden Marcus (real name: Marcus Bridgewater) was a plant, he’d be a sunflower, or perhaps a cheerful red radish. And thanks to TikTok and Instagram, we can all experience his useful gardening tips—and feel-good presence—every single day. His horticulture love story started when he inherited 16 plants from a family friend. Now his home in Houston bursts with greenery that spills into his backyard where he grows cucumbers, propagates pineapples, and lovingly tends to his compost. Going beyond the garden, Bridgewater cultivates the beautiful, bright energy the world needs through his organization Choice Forward, which empowers individuals and strengthens communities through kindness, patience, positivity, and of course, plants. gardenmarcus.com

GARDENING AS ACTIVISM: FREEDOM GARDENS If plant knowledge is power, then a veggie patch is liberation. Founded by landscape artist Lily Kwong to empower communities to grow their own food, Freedom Gardens acts as a collective, harnessing the expertise and telling the stories of farmers and home-growers all over the country, as well as offering free online classes on everything from choosing the right kind of soil to harvesting your crops. Last fall, in response to fervent requests for resources and supplies, Studio Lily Kwong partnered with Halden Gardens, a family-run business in Salt Lake City, to curate three organic, non-GMO seed collections: Fall Salad Seed Mix, Flower Power Seed Mix, and Aromatic Seed Blend. Each one is composed with care to make getting started in the garden—or on the windowsill—easy. freedom-gardens.com

NICE BLOOMERS LET YOUR VASES KNOW THAT YOU’LL BE MAKING NEW ARRANGEMENTS

24 D R E W SUMMER 2021

LET’S SEE

When it comes to show-stopping floral design, Michael and Darroch Putnam have artistry down to a science. In Flower Color Theory, the New York-based creative couple shares their approach to using classic color schemes as a springboard for bringing original looks to life. Here are their top tips for experimenting with style at home.

CUE THE COLOR WHEEL “For us, color is the key element in an arrangement,” they write in their new book. “We always ask ourselves what color palette we want to work in before designing. Using basic color theory is a practical approach when starting out.”

THE COLOR WHEEL 101

SAY YES TO THE SEASON Bring whatever is happening outdoors in. Think bright yellow sun, blue skies and white clouds, and put it all in one vessel. “Yellow sunflowers, white cosmos, and blue delphinium are a great combination that feels warm and inviting,” says Michael. Their summer picks: garden roses and sunflowers. “Both have come a long way through cultivation, and you can find unique colors at most grocery stores, flower shops, and farmers markets.”

KEEP THEM FRESH Dehydration causes flowers to wilt and change in color. To keep your blooms looking their best, it all comes down to care:

PHOTOGR APHS: FLOR AL PHOTOS BY PUTNAM & PUTNAM, BOOK COVER COURTESY OF PHAIDON PRES S

1 Unpack and trim all leaves or foliage that FLOWER COLOR THEORY COMBINATIONS TO TRY ACCENT A color that adds impact White, Cream, and Pale Green Accent or Blush with Scarlet Accent MONOCHROMATIC One singular shade sensation All Red, All Green, All Dusty Purple COMPLEMENTARY Two opposing colors on the wheel Beige and Lavender or Peach and Pale Blue TRIADIC Three colors separated evenly on the wheel Red, Yellow, Blue or Gold, Blue, Fuchsia

would fall below the waterline, and give each stem a fresh, angled cut before adding them to your vase.

2 Fill your vase two-thirds full with cool water and flower food—any flower food will do.

3 Keep your flowers hydrated. When the water starts running low, top if off, and if it turns cloudy, replace it. Take it from them: “If you do these three things, your blooms will thrive!”

ANALOGOUS A trio of colors found next to each other Peach, Brown, Beige or Lilac, Plum, Purple, and Mauve TRANSITIONAL Hues that harmoniously flow From Blush to Pale Blue or from White to Gold RAINBOW A full spectrum of colors Red, Pink, Orange, Yellow, Light Green, Light Blue, Dark Blue, Purple

CRUISING THE FLORIDA KEYS You only need a few days to cruise the 125-mile-long chain of tropical Florida islands connected by the Overseas Highway. Snorkelers, divers, and fishing enthusiasts cross paths with joyriding motorcyclists, Jimmy Buffett barflies, and local wildlife, like manatees, sea tortoises, and marsh rabbits. Looking for relaxation and rejuvenation? The driving is easy, the waters are gentle, and the Key lime pie is plentiful.

THE BE ST OF THE BE ST

I am a self-proclaimed beauty junkie. I’ve seen it all, and I think I’ve tried a little of everything. I love to learn and practice tips, hacks, and tools of the trade. And at the same time, I’ve always known that if I don’t feel pretty on the inside, it doesn’t matter what I look like on the outside. Sanity and a warm heart will always make the exterior that much better. My Instagram #BeautyJunkieWeek series is my way of sharing both: keeping the inner beauty conversation going while having a little fun with products too. And with that, I give you some of my all-time faves.

EVIAN MINERAL WATER FACIAL SPRAY, $14, walmart.com I know this is traditionally a facial product, but I use it on my hair. It has an atomizer that distributes perfectly for waves and curls. Spray a bunch in and scrunch hair with your hands or dry with a diﬀuser for lots of fun curl.

ELTA MD UV DAILY TINTED BROADSPECTRUM SPF 40, $33, eltamd.com I break out from almost every sunblock, so I often ask myself, “Do I want acne or brown pigmentation?” It’s always been a crappy toss-up. Then I found this! It’s a lightweight sunscreen with a tiny bit of tint. FLOWER BEAUT Y FIBER FIX BROW GEL & SKINNY MICROBROW PENCIL $10-$11, cvs.com I love this combo for brows.

START SMOOTH Start with clean, dry feet. Then smooth out the rough bits with a foot file that has a gentle metal grate. “Super smooth feet are always the best part of a pro pedicure,” says Tuttle. SHAPE UP Clip your nails to the length you like, and finish shaping them with a nail file. Tuttle recommends keeping your old polish on at this point to help guide you.

PEDI IS A VERB GIVE YOURSELF A SUMMER-PERFECT PEDICURE AT HOME BY ANNA GOLINO

When it comes to living her best nail life, Olive & June founder Sarah Gibson Tuttle keeps no secrets. After mastering the at-home manicure and introducing The Mani System, the next logical step was to take on pedicures. In late 2020, she launched The Pedi System, a foot and nail care essentials kit. Here, she shares her step-by-step process for giving yourself a pedi you’ll be proud of.

48 D R E W SUMMER 2021

RETHINK THE SOAK Arguably, one of the best parts of a salon pedicure is the foot soak, but it could be the culprit behind chips and smudges. “Water expands your nail plate, and any excess moisture has an impact on polish’s staying power.” Instead, soak for 15 to 20 minutes the day before you plan on giving yourself a pedi. GET COMFY “I knew there had to be a better way than spending an hour hunched over trying to paint your toes, so we developed The Posey,” Tuttle says of the dual-angled foot stand that does double duty as tool storage. “When you anchor your heel on the grip pad, it keeps your foot stable, giving you more control,” she says.

PRIME TIME “Proper prep is what separates a polish change from a pedicure,” says Tuttle. To check all the boxes, first use a polish remover to wipe away any old polish or excess oils, then apply cuticle remover and push back the cuticles. Use a buffer to smooth ridges and erase tiny hangnails, then use a cleanup brush dipped in remover to wipe the nail plate clean. POLISH IT OFF Taking your time is the key to a flawless paint job. Pop on toe separators and paint 2 to 3 thin, even coats of polish, letting each coat dry for a few minutes in between. “For me, the ultimate tell is a clean line at the base of your cuticle,” says Tuttle, who erases stray polish and straightens edges with a cleanup brush dipped in polish remover. Apply top coat to seal the deal. EXTRA CREDIT Once polish is fully dry, apply a light hydrator like Olive & June Foot Serum all over your feet. “A good pedi is more than just polish on your toes,” says Tuttle. “Keeping your feet moisturized gives your skin a healthy glow.” KEEP IT UP To make your pedi last, moisturize daily, apply fresh top coat every few days, and gently file your heels once a week before a bath or shower. “Take the time to give yourself a pedi every two weeks. It will get easier every time,” says Tuttle. THE PEDI SYSTEM, FROM $70, oliveandjune.com

MOVIN ’ & GROOVIN ’ FROM COAST TO COAST, THE MOST FUN TREND IN FITNESS IS PROVING WHAT ROLLER SKATERS HAVE KNOWN FOR YEARS: IT’S A WORKOUT FOR YOUR BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT. BY NANA K. TWUMASI

ROLL MODEL “Roller skating is the best feeling in the world,” says Kamry James. When she began to offer online lessons as a way to raise donations for Black Lives Matter and the ACLU, James noticed she wasn’t the only one who felt this way. To support the existing and expanding community of Black, Brown, and nonbinary skaters, James founded Sista Skate with Kelsey Guy and Frances McGee in 2020. “I realized teaching allowed women from all over the country to not only escape, but to truly bring healing to their lives.” Now their Los Angeles-based organization works to uplift skaters everywhere through connection, classes, and workshops. James says, “Whether it is on the rink, the boardwalk, your neighborhood, or the skate park, skating gives our communities the access to self-expression through empowerment.” Join the movement @sistaskate_

LACE UP United Skates, a 2018 documentary by Dyana Winkler and Tina Brown, examines the intersection of Blackness and roller skating, and the integral part rinks have played in providing a safe space. It reminds us that a community is maintained by the strength of its members. Now two of the sensational skaters at the heart of the film, Atlanta-based Kamille Gilmore of Kameo Roll and Chicago’s Myesha McCaskill at Inspired by Favor, are supporting skating culture through lessons.

FIND YOUR FLOW WITH KEON SAGHARI “I had a vision of myself roller skating at the beach,” says movement artist Keon Saghari, also known as NeonKeon. “The energy behind that thought contained an overwhelming sense of freedom,” she says. To make her vision a reality, Saghari picked up a pair of skates and headed out to practice at Venice Beach. Three years in, she’s known for her smooth choreo, token curls, and easy California style. In January, Saghari launched Find Your Flow, an online group class where everyone’s invited to roll along. “I feel honored and motivated to return the support I’m receiving from my community with love and effort,” she says. “The notion that I’m providing something that is providing people an opportunity to explore joy is, simply put, joyous.” Join the fun @neonkeon

New to the world on wheels? Follow Saghari’s tips on getting started. WATCH & LEARN Get acquainted with the history of roller skating, especially in the minority communities that created the culture. Saghari recommends watching Roller Dreams, a documentary that sheds light on Venice Beach skate culture in the 1980s. “It’s a productive way to acknowledge the richness of the craft,” she says. THE DO’S “Keep your chin up, shoulders back, and spine long and tall,” says Saghari. Looking down means falling down, and that’s not the fun part. And if you are transitioning from rink skating to the road, you may need different wheels, and you will need to adjust your movement.

THE DON’TS “A lot of times people want to straighten their legs and lift up,” she explains. “Avoid that as much as possible.” Instead, stay grounded by centering yourself on your legs and skates, which will make it easier to find your balance and move. RELY ON THE RHYTHM It’s all about the bounce. “Whether you are bouncing your hips, your knees, your shoulders, your hair—it doesn’t matter,” says Saghari. “Find the groove in the music to establish the bounce, which basically acts as a shock absorber. Find the beat of the music and let it fill you up!” —NKT

THE PURSUIT F HAPPINESS OUR EDITOR-IN-CHIEF ON DEFINING AND REDEFINING HAPPINESS FOR HERSELF BY DREW BARRYMORE

56 D R E W SUMMER 2021

LET’S SMILE

I AM AN OPTIMIST. Optimism is my outlook. It is my constant magnet, forever drawing me to hope. Happiness, on the other hand, feels like it’s been a bit more elusive. It can be a downright slippery little sucker if you know what I mean. In my teens and 20s, I was happy because I was convinced I was immortal. Drinking, eating anything I wanted, and never sleeping. Going to every concert I could. Dropping everything and traveling anywhere at a moment’s notice. Doing donuts in the parking lot? Yes, please. Jumping out of a plane? Me first. No one could tell me otherwise. I didn’t think—I knew for absolutely certain— that I would always have my health. My problems could seem really big, like they were insurmountable, but I really just believed that I was never leaving this beautiful planet. A lot of my happiness came from thinking that I had all the time in the world.

AND THEN I HAD TWO BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS, AND EVERYTHING CHANGED. All of a sudden, my mortality came right into focus. I care about these two girls, my Olive and Frankie, much more than I care about myself. The fear of not being here on this earth to take care of them became a reality for me. That “blissful ignorance” style of happiness I used to believe in was no longer available to me. But what’s interesting is I realized my happiness was more important than ever. I needed to be strong to raise my girls and give them everything they need and deserve. I wanted everything to be as good for them as I could possibly make it. I wanted life to look and function a certain way for them—a way that I had never known, but I could appreciate fully.

SUMMER 2021 D R E W 57

LET’S SMILE

BUT THERE IS THAT SAYING: WHEN YOU MAKE PLANS, THE UNIVERSE LAUGHS.

P H OTO GR A P H S: GR AY DO N H ER R I OT, I L LU ST R AT I O N S: A N TO N I A F I G U EI R E D O

When my plans fell apart, for what was not the first nor the last time, I felt like all of the promises I had made to myself in honor of my daughters were being broken. And in that time, I felt really broken myself. I couldn’t even figure out what happiness really meant or how to get it, let alone keep it. All I could do was put one front in front of the other. I don’t know why, but it feels like it is completely taboo to feel like you don’t know what your next move is supposed to be. My children are my North Star. I have always known in my heart that if I did what I thought would be in their best interests, everything else around me would be OK. And to my surprise, it was. As their well-being guided my decisions, we began moving in a new direction, literally and figuratively. We headed from Los Angeles to New York, where their father and I would work tirelessly to create a co-parenting dynamic that would nurture them. And we continue to give it our all. It took years, but life finally started to fall into place. The kids started going to school, life began to resume, and I started to work a little bit again. Over time, the rhythm of life felt less like a crazy interpretive jazz number and more of a sweet beat. It is possible that it was the sound of my heart actually settling from the stress and the nerves that I had experienced in the last few years. Even so, I must admit that I felt like a failure because I couldn’t actually get to the state of happiness. I could be happy with my kids. I could be happy

with my friends. But I knew I wasn’t truly happy inside. But I reached the point where enough was enough. I had life on the outside in a good place, so it was time for my interior life to catch up. All of a sudden, I started to be really honest with myself. What were my coping mechanisms? What was I relying on that wasn’t working for me anymore? Which of my behaviors weren’t doing me right? If the choices are to stay the same or take the journey to your better self, is there really much of a choice at all? I just want to ask anyone who has been kind enough to take the time to read this right now: Do you have that little inner voice, a Jiminy Cricket conscience like mine that kept repeating that something needed to change? With time and effort, I have finally found my way to a new, more authentic happiness and to a little more peace. At this point in my life, happiness is believing that I can handle whatever comes my way. The false sense that I had my very own cloak of invincibility has been replaced by knowing I have earned the capability of making it through the day. Some days are great—too good to be true—and others are just really crappy. Either way, it’s going to be OK.

I have accepted that being optimistic is who I am, and I will constantly strive for happiness. Happiness is more of a hard-fought battle. When I win and I actually feel that true state of joy, I cherish it because I know that at some point—maybe not tonight, tomorrow, or even next week—I’m probably going to have to go and fight for it all over again. True, the usual state of my juggling act of kids/ work/life tends to skew to the rather frenzied side, but no matter how bad things get, I always remain positive. I may be a lot of things, but “stuck” is not one of them. I will always find my way, even if I need more patience with myself about what time frames are realistic for growth and change. There are truly no shortcuts, and I’m not sure if I believe the easy road would be worth taking because I might miss some very important parts of the ride. All of our happiness comes and goes. When you are holding it, hold on tight because it is not to be taken for granted. It’s a fleeting manifestation of your own hard work. Every day is a true gift. My happiness lies in waking up and knowing that I took it for granted in my younger days, but I don’t now. Growing up is not overrated. It’s actually awesome.

As a 46-year-old woman, a mother of two young girls, and a professional person just doing my best, I’ve come to understand myself a little deeper. Maybe my feet are a little more anchored to the ground, but it doesn’t have to make my head any less in the clouds. I do appreciate my mortality and every day I get to be on this planet. I’ve learned that five minutes alone can change your state from codered-stress-level-11 to sailing the calmer seas. Now I reach out when I need to. Speaking to someone smarter than me, seeking solidarity, or asking for advice really helps. And it benefits everyone around me too.

IF YOU ARE HAPPY & YOU KNOW IT... TELL US

y r e ! v ng E thi 30 PEOPLE AND THEIR MANY, MANY WAYS OF FINDING HAPPINESS

LET’S SMILE

REBECCA MINKOFF Designer, author, and entrepreneur @rebeccaminkoff “Happiness is overcoming unknown goals toward a known one. It’s the feeling when you accomplish the impossible or do something you didn’t think you could do. It’s the feeling I have after pulling off a fashion show or sending in the manuscript of my book or picking up my kids from school and seeing the look on their faces when they realize that Mom came.”

JORDAN JONES Founder, Packed Party @packedparty “Happiness for me feels like peace in the purest form. It’s waking up on a Saturday with no agenda, strong coffee, fresh flowers, having the sun on my face, and feeling grounded in the relationships surrounding me and my business. ‘Put energy into the things that make you the best version of yourself ’ was advice given to me early on and it’s stuck with me today!”

DR. ALIZA PRESSMAN Developmental psychologist @raisinggoodhumanspodcast “Happiness is a feeling of ease. It’s being free of the feeling that I am supposed to be somewhere else or doing something else. I feel it most when I am lazing around with my girls, laughing with my friends, or connecting in my work. I am really careful about saying no to things that I do not have bandwidth for, even if they seem great. I have gotten more comfortable understanding that no to one thing is yes to something else.”

PILAR VALDES Chef @chefpilarvaldes @kickshawcookery “Happiness is a lush garden and a large table with a lazy Susan. I’ve always been a very happy eater, and cooking is my way of sharing that joy. There’s a Tagalog phrase, nakakataba ng puso, which literally translates to ‘fattening of the heart.’ To me, that is what happiness feels like—the warmth of a full heart. Practicing compassion, generosity, and care, in gestures large and small.”

CHARLOTTE CHO Co-founder of Soko Glam and Then I Met You @sokoglam

RYAN HEFFINGTON Choreographer and dance instructor @ryan.heffington

“Happiness is having deep bonds and emotional connections with the people that matter most. In Korea, they call this deep connection jeong. I aspire to achieve jeong with others by being intentional with how I spend my time and energy: spending quality time with each other, being vulnerable with one another, and giving unconditionally without expecting anything in return.”

“Happiness means being content with the choices I’ve made, whether it be professionally, personally, or creatively. It feels like love generated from the inside out and vice versa. I feel it most when I’m free enough to be there for other people. I cultivate it in my life by following my instincts.”

SUMMER 2021 D R E W 61

BRITTNEY WINBUSH Actress and founder of Alexandra Winbush @thealexandrawinbush “Happiness is being so present in a moment that you can enjoy it while it is happening. It feels like my mom’s smile, a girls night with my best friends, a warm hug after a long day, or cooking with my dad. I always allow myself to feel, to be open, and to give myself grace. This way, I can find happiness even on a bad day.”

AMIRAH KASSEM Baker and founder of Flour Shop @amirahkassem & @flourshop “Happiness is what I call the ‘birthday lifestyle’! Wear a favorite outfit, eat your favorite foods, and hang out with your favorite people. You can create your version of this every day. I feel the most joy hearing my baby girl laugh, seeing people cut into my cakes for the first time, wearing rainbows, eating pizza and ice cream, and cooking. It makes me happy to work really hard on things that bring happiness to others.”

62 D R E W SUMMER 2021

MARNIE ALTON Fitness trainer @marniealton “Happiness is being so connected to a moment that the rest of the world just seems to fade away. I feel it most when I’m dancing, laughing with friends, and snuggling with my pups. Ultimate bliss would be somehow doing all three at the same time. I’m always happiest when I practice these two things every day: writing in my gratitude journal and moving my body to a kick-ass playlist.”

BEE SHAPIRO Writer and founder of Ellis Brooklyn @beeshapiro “Happiness isn’t this up-and-down roller coaster I used to think it was in my 20s. Rather, it is this extremely satisfied feeling and a strange sense that everything fits in the moment. I am happiest when I am outdoors with my kids with the beauty of nature surrounding us, hearing their laughter in the air, and seeing their smiles beaming. It’s these moments that keep my spirit going.”

KENDRA SCOTT Jewelry designer and founder of Kendra Scott @kendrascott “I choose to start my day thinking about three things I am thankful for, no matter how big or small they may be, and I go through the rest of my day meditating on those things. When I start each day with that intentional positivity, it is so much easier to see the world through a lens of happiness and contentment.”

DERRICK BARNES Children’s book author @authorderrickbarnes “Happiness is freedom and being in control of time, which is life’s most important resource. I find bliss when I’m working in my office, listening to my favorite music—anything from Coltrane, Yusef Lateef, or Blue Mitchell— with candles lit. To cultivate joy in my life, I keep my circle small, assuring that our home is full of love, solitude, and peace. I strive to create and reverberate good energy around me by being positive, kind, and optimistic.”

LET’S SMILE

EMILY COXHEAD Creator of The Happy News @emilycoxhead

DANIELLE ALVAREZ Publicist @thebonitaproject

“Happiness is a feeling of joy, and appreciation for life and all that is right with the world. It feels like sunbeams and rainbows combined! I am happiest when I’m by the sea, breathing in fresh air, and listening to the waves crash on the shore. It’s as though the waves are washing away my worries. Turning the music up and dancing around like crazy helps too!”

“I feel happiest and most fulfilled when I’m pursuing a passion project or surrounded by the people who bring joy and support to me daily. Happiness is a sense of satisfaction within you— like those random moments when you take it all in and realize you don’t need anything else but what is right in front of you.”

FLORENCE ADEPOJU Founder of MDM Flow @mdmflow

LAVANYA KRISHNAN Former neuroscientist and co-founder of Boxwalla @theboxwalla

AMELIE PRESCOTT Founder of Mos Chukma Arts as Healing Institute moschukmainstitute.org

“Happiness feels like a hot-water bath on a cold winter’s day. Morning cuddles with my children, when I listen...really listen...to the questions that they have about the world, and when something I’ve done adds some value to somebody else’s life. Writing not only helps me make sense of both happiness and suffering, but it also makes me more alive to that momentby-moment happiness that comes my way. ”

“Happiness for me is a deep feeling of satisfaction that’s usually in relation to my work, which is with challenged, marginalized communities. It’s like a little secret I keep under my hat. That and the sage-ing of forgiveness. I love the happiness that comes from the heat of the moment when we lose ourselves like making art; like making love.”

“Happiness to me is contentment. Cycling makes me happy. Kisses from my partner make me happy. A good customer review. A filling, yummy lunch. I am a radical optimist so I can go on and on about mundane things that make me so happy. Being an entrepreneur can sometimes make everything target- and goals-based. I have to make sure that I make time for the little things I enjoy.”

DARCY MILLER Party expert, author, and illustrator @darcymiller “Happiness is when the stars align, life feels balanced, and I know I’ve made a positive difference in someone’s mood, day, or life. To cultivate it, I must be aware. I try to notice and appreciate unique qualities in a person, place, or moment, and remind myself how interesting the world is while feeling more connected to the people and places I love most.”

SUMMER 2021 D R E W 63

JILL KARGMAN TV correspondent and author @jillkargman “I think happiness can be hardwired. The nurture aspect comes from appreciating everything— a roof over my head, a meal, a flower, a great song—I soak it all up every day and not to be cheese, but I’m as into the little things as the large. True happiness for me is dinner with my family before a Broadway show. I also blare rock and roll and metal music. I get my aggression out, I guess!”

KALYN CAI BENNETT Buddhist teacher and healing practitioner @kalyn_cai “Happiness is mental and emotional stability, free from highs and lows. When I’m happy, I feel even-tempered, my mind is calm and focused, and my body is relaxed. Being helpful to others and Vajrayana Buddhism meditation practices are the main contributors to my daily happiness. Eating nourishing foods, doing gentle exercise, and being grateful are also conducive to sustainable happiness.”

64 D R E W SUMMER 2021

JONAH LARSON Crocheter, author, and middle school student @jonahhands “Happiness is the feeling you get when you are doing the right thing, not just for yourself, but for your family, friends, and community. I hope that through my work, I continue to inspire people to find their own happiness while making sure that giving back is a part of their life plans. If I can inspire others, that makes me happy too!”

ROXY TE Entrepreneur @societysocial “True happiness is a combination of gratitude and peace. I feel it most when I’m able to be present, in the moment, and not skipping ahead to the future or contemplating the past. Each moment is one we can’t get back, so whether it’s a quiet morning spent with my little family or a bigger, more celebratory occasion, I try to soak up every second and in as many ways as possible!”

KATIE SANDS Style host and creative director @honestlykate “Happiness is finding true pleasure, passion, and purpose in life. Material things can often present a false sense of happiness in the form of lust, but true happiness always comes from the three P’s. When I’m happiest, I feel an overwhelming sense of calm around and inside of me. I feel light, as if everything negative was weighing me down.”

JASOLYN HARRIS Mystic, pastor, therapist, and healer @thewaylosangeles “Happiness means living each moment believing and knowing that I am who I am and I will be who I will be. Happiness defined: My long, razzle-dazzle acrylic nails, a good monochromatic/matchymatchy moment, fly Tevas with fly socks, gold everything, Reese’s Pieces, and my collection of many mini things. It feels like smiling at the moon, singing in my dreams, staring happily at my reflection in the mirror, and laughing without fear of the future.”

LET’S SMILE

TONY LEROY Intuitive counselor @intuitivetony “For me, happiness expresses itself in so many different ways. Mentally, it is a mind able to be present. Emotionally, it is being balanced enough to feel the joy in life. Physically, it is being open to getting your needs met. Spiritually, it is being tapped into the greatness we all have within us. Happiness is being in the flow. I feel it the most when I meditate and when I am so present with loved ones that we all just radiate joy.”

VANESSA CORNELL Founder of Nüshu Wellness Collective @nushu “Happiness is being unafraid to pursue my joy and purpose. I want to live life to the fullest and connect deeply to those I love. It feels both electric and calm, like there’s unlimited energy and support flowing through me. As if I’m so grounded in love and connection that nothing can rattle me, even when the world feels out of control.”

VANESSA CRAFT TikTok director of content partnerships @vanessacraft

PRIYANKA MATTOO Filmmaker, essayist, and founder of Earios @primattoo

“Happiness is acceptance of yourself and others. A strong Wi-Fi signal is a close second. Happiness feels like a champagne bubble sensation of joy and gratitude. I appreciate it most when it is unexpected, like a quickwitted quip from one of the teens in my house or when I fall into a creative flow and time stands still. I cultivate it in my life by fiercely curating my time, being mindful of what matters most.”

“Happiness for me exists at the intersection of contentment and gratitude. I practice transcendental meditation, which has been a game changer on every front. It makes me a better parent and worker, and it allows me to navigate life’s infinite speed bumps with a little grace. When I skip a day or two, things start to fall apart. And therapy! I discovered therapy late: Did you know talking about bad feelings can make you feel better? I did not!

BETHANY HALFORD Co-founder of Whoa, Wait. @whoawaitwalmart

AMANDA JERKINS Co-founder of Whoa, Wait. @whoawaitwalmart

“To me, happiness is contentment. I feel content when I hold aspects of my life open-handed. I try really hard not to strong-arm or force things. Striving to build a life that serves my family and me well helps me find happiness. At the end of the day, I’d like my marriage and my relationships with my daughters to flourish as a result of all the other pieces.”

“To me, happiness means contentment. Can you tell Bethany and I are best friends? Ha! It feels safe, even cozy, and I feel it most when I am surrounded by my husband and kids. When I look around my home and count my blessings, it never fails to bring a smile to my face and gratitude in my heart.”

ALL THE FEELS TALKING TO YOURSELF WITH JONATHAN VAN NESS

Jonathan Van Ness has a way with words. As a host of Netflix’s Queer Eye and of his own podcast, Getting Curious (which has more than 200 episodes to dive into), he shines his light to go deep, connect on a meaningful level, and bring out the best of the shows’ subjects and guests.

MAKE NICE WITH YOUR NERVES “When we feel nervous, part of that feeling is our nervous system trying to tell us something,” he explains. “The first part of moving through that is to listen to it. What is the fear? What are you afraid of? And then I feel it. We feel a sense of strength when we can feel anxious about something but it didn’t make it impossible to move forward.”

But the person he is in constant communication with? Himself. An advocate of self-acceptance and self-love, Van Ness has made mindfulness, mantras, and positive self-talk part of his mental health and well-being tool kit. Here, he shares how you can too. SHUSH THE CYNIC When starting a dialogue with yourself, don’t talk yourself out of it. “The hardest thing for me was figuring out how to quiet my inner critic. I would hear that little voice say, This is so stupid. I can’t believe I’m really doing this,” says Van Ness. “But then I realized that inner critic is something we’re used to hearing. That means there’s another part that can be our internal cheerleader.”

PAUSE FOR POSITIVITY Choose to course-correct the convo in your head. “My old cat Larry has been sick, and I started to think maybe it’s because he doesn’t like living between houses, or maybe it’s my lifestyle choices,” says Van Ness. “I stop and turn that negative thinking into positive self-talk: I know how much I love Larry. He has everything he needs. I remind myself I have done all I can in this moment.”

FOLLOW YOUR FEELINGS “When you’re down, you don’t always know what you need. In those moments, ask yourself about the last time you thought something was really cool but didn’t try it.” For Van Ness, that has led to figure skating, gardening, and needlepoint. “Find an aspect of whatever it is that you can do.” PRACTICE MAKES PROGRESS “I’m a short meditator—only 2-5 minutes—but I do it every day. If there’s something really bothering me, I’ll incorporate a mantra. They’re a special tool when I’m feeling flummoxed,” he says. Try these on for size: I am capable. I accept myself completely. I am worthy of love. For more, follow @jvn and @curiouswithjvn

BE SUPPORTIVE “The confidence we all need comes in knowing we are a part of supportive communities. We are a part of tribes of people who will be professional troublemakers and say, ‘You know what? I will always tell you what you need to hear, not necessarily what you want to hear, because I’m looking out for you,’ ” says Ajayi Jones.

P H OTO GR A P H S: M AT T M O N AT H , K ESH A L A M BE RT

In her new book, Professional Troublemaker: The Fear-Fighter Manual, Ajayi Jones tackles the topic of overcoming fear itself. Here, she shares her tips on how to be a fierce fear-fighter for yourself and those you care about most. BE REAL Sincerity is everything. Jones believes in honoring one another, giving meaningful compliments, and acknowledging accomplishments in a wholehearted way. “We must affirm our work, affirm our look, affirm our being.” BE HONEST “Do not misrepresent yourself, your work, or theirs.” says Ajayi Jones. “You can absolutely give people confidence purely by telling them the truth about who they are and the great things they do well that they may not realize about themselves.”

BE CURIOUS According to Ajayi Jones, one of the best questions you can ask when someone is second-guessing their own power and influence is, “Why not YOU?” It will get them thinking in a whole different direction. For more fear-fighting tips, follow @luvvie BE PRESENT Ask questions and really listen. Ajayi Jones suggests quick and meaningful check-ins to let people know you are there for them: “How are you doing?

MOLLY BAZ SERVES UP HER SECRETS When it comes to outdoor entertaining, there’s just one universal goal. “You want to be the hostess with the mostest and still work the grill,” says Molly Baz, cook and author of Cook This Book: Techniques that Teach and Recipes to Repeat. “Think about things you can prep ahead of time that don’t require much attention throughout the course of the day. Take it even further and think about things that get better with time and are good at any temperature,” and prep those ahead too. True to her modernfundamentals-meets-mega-flavor style, Baz’s shwarma cartinspired grilled chicken thighs check all the boxes, helping you to achieve culinary greatness.

SUMMER 2021 D R E W 75

Spiced, Grilled, and Swaddled Chicken Thighs with the Works SERVES 4

medium red onions

5 garlic cloves 2

lemons

bunch mint or cilantro

1¾ cups plain whole-milk yogurt 2

pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 6 small)

cup distilled white vinegar

½ cup sugar 1

tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for the grill

tablespoon sweet smoked paprika

tablespoon ground cumin

¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper 4

pitas Kosher salt

PICKLE THE RED ONIONS Slice 2 red onions crosswise into ⅛ -inch-thick rings. In a small saucepan, heat 1 cup white vinegar, 1½ cups water, ½ cup sugar, and 1 tablespoon salt over medium heat, stirring often to dissolve. Once the vinegar mixture comes to a simmer, remove from the heat and immediately add the onions. Let cool to room temperature. The onions can be made up to several days in advance; they only get better with time.

MAKE THE GARLIC YOGURT Finely grate 1 garlic clove into a small bowl and stir in 1 cup plain yogurt. Season with salt and set aside for serving. MARINATE THE CHICKEN Finely grate 4 garlic cloves into a large bowl. Stir in ¾ cup plain yogurt, the juice of 1 lemon, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 2½ teaspoons salt, 1 tablespoon smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon cumin, ¾ teaspoon cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper and whisk well to combine. Add 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs to the marinade and turn to coat. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes while you prepare a grill for medium heat (or heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium heat). If you’re going to marinate them longer (which Baz says you totes should; they only improve with time), cover and keep chilled in the refrigerator for up to 6 hours and pull them out 30 minutes before cooking.

underneath and naturally releases from the grates, 5 to 6 minutes. Pay attention to the hot spots of your grill or grill pan, and move the thighs around accordingly to ensure even browning. Flip the thighs and cook until just cooked through, 4 to 7 minutes longer. (An instant-read thermometer should register 165°F in the thickest part of the thigh.) This will vary depending on how large your chicken thighs are, so keep an eye on temperature more than timing in this case! Let the chicken thighs rest on a plate while you grill the pitas. WARM THE PITAS & SERVE Warm the pitas on the grill while the chicken rests, about 1 minute per side. Cut a lemon into 4 wedges and pick the leaves from 1 bunch of mint. Slice the chicken against the grain into ½-inch-thick strips and serve on a big platter alongside the pitas, pickled onions, garlic yogurt, lemon wedges, and mint for a build-yourown kind of situation.

GRILL THE CHICKEN Once the grill is preheated to medium (you should be able to hold your hand over the grate for about 5 seconds before it gets too hot), lightly oil the grill grates. Remove the chicken from the marinade with tongs, letting any excess drip back into the bowl, and transfer it to the grill. Cook, undisturbed, until it’s nicely charred

Crispy Shrimp Toast SERVES 4 MAKE THE TOAST In a medium bowl, combine the shrimp, egg, cilantro stems, garlic, white pepper, and salt.

Cut each shrimp toast in half again into smaller triangles, if you like, and serve warm with Tangy Cucumber Salad.

Stir until combined. Gently flatten each slice of bread with your hands. In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmeringhot. Line a plate with paper towels and have nearby.

MAKE TANGY CUCUMBER SALAD In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, 1 tablespoon water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat and let it cool completely.

Spread 2 tablespoons of the shrimp mixture all the way to the edges on one side of each slice of bread, then press a few cilantro leaves and chile slices into the shrimp so they stick.

Working in batches, place the shrimp toasts filling side down in the pan and cook until browned and crispy, about 2 minutes. Use a spatula to carefully flip over, then cook on the other side until browned, another 2 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels to drain and cool slightly.

In a medium bowl, combine the cucumbers, shallot, bell peppers, and chiles. Add the cooled syrup and toss. Refrigerate for up to an hour, or let it sit on the counter for 10 to 15 minutes before serving (don’t wait too long or the cucumber will lose its crunch). Sprinkle with cilantro leaves before serving, if desired.

LAUREN GALLUCCI AND CLAIRE THOMAS SAY CHERRY TOMATO TARTE TATIN Sweet Laurel, Los Angeles’ gluten-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free (and paleo- and keto-friendly, of course) bakery, is exploring the other side of the palate with a new cookbook, Sweet Laurel Savory: Everyday Decadence for Whole-Food, Grain-Free Meals. Here, their version of a French classic showcases summer’s finest flavors. Master this never-fail tart dough, and you’ll be set for life in the snack department.

Cherry Tomato Tarte Tatin SERVES 8-10

⅔ pint cherry tomatoes 4

tablespoons olive oil, plus more for greasing

fennel bulbs, stalks removed and bulbs sliced

3 garlic cloves, minced ½ teaspoon grated nutmeg Himalayan pink salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 recipe Savory Tart Dough (recipe below) Arrowroot powder, for dusting SAVORY TART DOUGH (makes one 10-inch crust) 1¼ cups almond flour 1

cup arrowroot powder, plus more for dusting

½ cup cassava flour ½ teaspoon Himalayan pink salt ½ cup unsalted ghee or melted coconut oil 2

tablespoons hot water (110˚to 120˚F)

large egg

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the tomatoes on a baking sheet, drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, and toss to coat. Roast for 15 minutes, or until softened and starting to brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the fennel and cook for 5 minutes, until the fennel is starting to brown. Add the garlic, nutmeg, and a pinch each of salt and pepper, and cook for about 10 minutes more, until the fennel is tender. Remove the skillet from the heat. Lightly coat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet with olive oil. Arrange the roasted cherry tomatoes in the skillet in an even layer, being careful not to overlap them. Place the tart dough on a sheet of parchment paper. Lightly dust the top of the dough with arrowroot and place another sheet of parchment on top. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough into a round about ⅛ inch thick, sprinkling with more arrowroot as needed to prevent sticking. Trim the dough so the round is a little bigger than the top of the skillet. Place the dough

over the tomatoes and gently tuck the edges inside the pan. Bake for about 35 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. Remove the tart from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Run a knife around the edge, then invert the tart onto a serving tray. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers, wrapped in plastic wrap, in the fridge for up to 1 week. SAVORY TART DOUGH In a large bowl, sift together the almond flour, arrowroot, cassava flour, and salt until combined. In a food processor, combine the flour mixture, melted ghee, and hot water and process until fully incorporated. Add the egg and pulse just until a dough begins to form. The dough should be moist to the touch but not sticky or wet. Place a large piece of parchment paper on a flat surface and sprinkle it with arrowroot. Turn out the dough onto the parchment. Pat the dough into a ball, then flatten the ball into a ½-inch-thick disk. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 5 days before using, or store in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw frozen dough in the fridge overnight before using in any tart recipe.

“A choose-your-own-adventure dream” is how Sabrina de Sousa and Alissa Wagner like to describe salad. Known for their leafy seasonal specials at their New York restaurant Dimes, the duo shared their always-aces formula in their debut cookbook Dimes Times: Emotional Eating. “Salads set the stage to play with composition, texture, color, and palate through ingredients raw, roasted, chopped, crunchy, salty, sweet, and everything in between,” their book reads. “They can be dressed up or down, simple or complex, warm or cold, topped with grilled meat or fish for a more complete meal, or served in palm-sized portions to accompany a bigger spread. A great salad is all about balance, containing a variety of flavors and textures while highlighting the best seasonal ingredients.”

PITMASTER RODNEY SCOT T SHOWS HIS SWEET SIDE

It might sound like an impossible feat, but when those in the know drop into pitmaster Rodney Scott’s Whole Hog BBQ restaurants in Charleston and Birmingham for his famous King of the Menu pork sandwiches, they always save room for dessert: freshly baked pies. “The closest thing I had to hand pies made from scratch when I was a kid was the apple turnover at Hardee’s,” says Scott in his new cookbook, Rodney Scott’s World of BBQ: Every Day is a Good Day. “This recipe takes everything I loved about fried pies from fast-food restaurants—flaky crust and sweet fruit with a little lemon juice kick—and makes it much, much better.”

MAKE THE HAND PIE DOUGH Place the cubed butter in a bowl and in the refrigerator while you prepare the dry ingredients. Fill a tall glass with ice and add at least ½ cup water. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Working quickly to keep the butter as cold as possible, toss the butter in the flour mixture and then use your hands and fingers to work the butter pieces into the flour. Continue until all the butter has been thoroughly incorporated and the butter pieces are the size of small peas. Measure out ½ cup of the

ice water and drizzle 3 tablespoons of it into the flour. Using your hands as paddles (do NOT knead or squeeze), simply toss and combine until the flour has absorbed the water. Repeat this process, adding the water 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough starts to form a ball. Once the dough comes together and feels supple and tacky (but not sticky), knead it three or four quick times to pull it all together. Divide the dough into two equal parts and flatten each into 5-inch-diameter discs. Wrap each portion tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.

little flour over the dough. Roll each disc of dough until it is ¼ inch thick. Using a 6-inch round cookie cutter or an upturned soup bowl, cut out 12 rounds. Arrange the pastry rounds on parchment-lined baking sheets. Brush the edges of each round with the egg wash. Spoon ¼ cup chilled apple filling onto the center of each dough round. For each pie, fold the dough up and over the filling to make a half-moon and press lightly to seal the edges. Brush the tops of all of the pies with egg wash and sprinkle each pie with a pinch of sugar. Refrigerate the pies, uncovered, until chilled, at least 15 minutes or up to a few hours.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

MAKE THE FILLING In a large bowl, toss together the apples, apple juice, and lemon juice. In another bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Add the sugar mixture to the apples and toss. Add the vanilla and cinnamon and mix thoroughly. Pour the apples into an 8-inch x 8-inch baking pan. Bake for about 20 minutes. Stir the apple mixture to ensure that all the pieces are evenly cooked. Then continue to cook until the apples are softened, but still a little firm at the center, about an additional 25 minutes. Remove the apple mixture from the oven and set aside to cool for 30 minutes before refrigerating for at least 2 hours (or overnight) before filling and forming pies.

Bake the hand pies until they are golden brown, 28 to 32 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for as long as you can stand to wait. Eat warm or at room temperature. The pies can last a couple of days unrefrigerated and up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

SHAPE AND BAKE THE PIES Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon water and set the egg wash aside. Unwrap the pie dough discs and transfer them to a lightly floured surface and sprinkle a

TIP The hand-pie dough needs to chill for 3 hours before rolling. While the dough is in the fridge, you can bake and chill the apples too.

GOOD-LOOKING IS WHAT’S COOKING INTRODUCING BEAUTIFUL, MY NEW LINE OF KITCHEN TOOLS AND APPLIANCES MADE WITH LOVE

Beautiful is the story of reimagining how to live in your kitchen because that’s what it was for me. 2020 really asked us to look at things differently. And when I looked around my kitchen—where I have spent more time in the past couple of years than I ever thought possible—I wondered if there was some sort of unwritten rule in the world of appliances that timeless style and innovation were in a mutually exclusive relationship. Was I living in a world where having a classic toaster meant a lifetime of it being covered in crumbs? Why did all appliances have to be black and silver? I had to find the pretty in the middle. Beautiful is a labor of love to make your kitchen a true place of, well, beauty. We are forced to look at our countertop appliances. We actually handle the gadgets. I asked if we could bury all the mess in a new way, and make the knobs and screens feel less frenzied and more functional. But these appliances and tools don’t just sit there and look pretty. We developed them with the best in the business so that they get the job done. And as is my mission in all of my endeavors, I believe in providing amazing things at an accessible price point. (That crusade alone is worth everything to me.) Your life and your surroundings are a wonderful focal point for beauty. That’s what Beautiful is all about. You. Because you deserve to feel that feeling. Make every day pretty. I hope you love it!

DEAR DREW, MY BOOKSHELF BEWILDERS ME. I’VE TRIED TO MAKE IT CUTE, BUT IT ALWAYS TURNS OUT CLUT TERED. WHAT’S YOUR APPROACH TO ORGANIZING YOUR SHELVES IN A PICTUREPERFECT WAY? —FRANNIE D. Dear Frannie, First off, are your bookshelves open on the sides? If they are, that’s the problem right there. You’re going to have to get some bookends to barricade the ends. It’s the only way to force those shelves to do their job. Next, pick a direction: north/south or east/west? Then arrange all of the books the same way. Put the smaller books at the top and the larger, heavier ones at the bottom. Make it look as clean and architectural as you possibly can.

Signed with love from me to you! xo Drew

The last thing I’ll say is, as you’re arranging, step back and look at it from a distance so that you can see the total effect of what you’re doing and how it will look when someone is walking into the room. Good luck! xo Drew

Write me a letter, send me a story, ask me a question.

Are you trying to mix in objects? If so, you really have to ask yourself, “Do I love this object enough to make it an installation in my home?” Make sure every object has earned the real estate. And when it comes to colors and shapes, try to make everything blend together. Go for harmony.

DEAR DREW,

EVER SINCE THE PANDEMIC, I FEEL LIKE I’VE LOST TOUCH WITH FRIENDS. AT FIRST, I DIDN’T MIND IT SO MUCH BECAUSE I’M A NATURAL INTROVERT, BUT NOW I’M JUST WONDERING HOW TO RECONNECT. DO YOU HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS ON HOW TO GET BACK INTO THE FRIENDSHIP GROOVE? —DOUGLAS F.

I KNOW THAT PEOPLE SAY TO GET A LOT OF SLEEP AND EAT HEALTHY, BUT I HAVE THREE KIDS, A DOG, A JOB, AND A REAL PASSION FOR COFFEE AND PINOT NOIR. WHAT’S YOUR SECRET TO LOOKING FRESH EVEN WHEN YOU’RE RUNNING ON EMPT Y? —MEGAN A.

I HAVE MADE MY KIDS BREAKFAST, LUNCH, DINNER, AND TWO SNACKS A DAY FOR WHAT FEELS LIKE 1,000 DAYS STRAIGHT. I CANNOT BEAR TO LOOK AT ANOTHER CUCUMBER STICK OR CHEESY CRACKER. PLEASE SAVE ME WITH SOME NEW IDEAS BEFORE I GO BANANAS. —LUCY D.

Dear Douglas, Because I work so much on Zoom, I have had a lot of trouble associating it with anything recreational. Seeing people on a screen is totally associated with business, not pleasure. It took every fiber of my being to get on a group Zoom with my girlfriends. None of us had really seen each other’s faces in almost a year. And you know what? It was so amazing. And all of my fears and doubts about virtual hangouts went away. I just think keeping in touch with your friends, no matter what portal you use, has to be done by any means necessary. So pick up the phone, send a text, and set up a time to see each other face-to-face, screen-to-screen. xo Drew

Dear Megan, Don’t you just want to scream when people tell you to try to live so perfectly? It feels like an instant fail. But one thing I do know is that when I eat a lot of heavy food and mix it with a lack of sleep, I really don’t feel my best. I also find that I am so anxious to live a full life as soon as my kids go to bed that I’m left with no time to get any real sleep before it’s morning and the day starts all over again. If there is any way to resist the urge to go online for three hours after your kids’ eyes close, I promise you will feel better. If that fails, wake up and drink a fresh glass of lemon water in the morning. Then throw on some under-eye concealer and mix a little Flower Beauty Supernova Celestial Skin Elixir into your foundation. You’ll look dewy and fresh. Because every day is a new chance to make a happy ending.

Dear Lucy, It’s my pleasure to introduce what I call “the snack cabinet.” When my kids were old enough to tear the corner of a single-serving package of trail mix by themselves, I realized they were ready to fetch their own snacks. I cleared out a cabinet in my kitchen (but it could be a drawer or a dedicated bin in the pantry, as long as they can access it on their own), and filled it with healthy-ish bites: dried seaweed, dried fruits, crackers, raisins, and stuff like that. Stock it with things that already have your parental stamp of approval, and let them help themselves. It empowers them and makes me really happy. Now the only thing I have to worry about is if they are going to ruin their dinner. xo Drew

S E E I N G S TA R S : Yo u r S u m m e r H o r o s c o p e

CANCER JUNE 21 - JULY 22 Summer’s energy begs you to be your own bae. You constantly care for others, and it’s time you sprinkle some of that heart magic back in your own direction. Watch how quickly admiration and opportunities ensue when you shift your priorities and say ILY to yourself first.

LEO JULY 23 - AUGUST 22 A softer side of you is stepping out, and it’s a lewk. A purr has replaced your roar and the warmth you radiate is seen in a new way. Your mellow meow is making you magnetic, so be sure to cuddle up to this side of yourself before your birthday brings back the big cat.

VIRGO AUGUST 23 - SEPTEMBER 22 Work has been basic and you’re ready to werk it. Time to step out of your comfort zone and get messy (-ish—you’re still a Virgo!). Put your to-do list down and put yourself out there. TBH, people like you for you, even when you stop doing the favors they expect.

LIBRA SEPTEMBER 23 - OCTOBER 22 This summer has you in your feelings, so ride the waves. There are always ups and downs in life, and the balance you seek is in doing the dance. Let go of expectations and get that it’s not what you give, but the guru within, that actually draws your crew to you.

SCORPIO OCTOBER 23 - NOVEMBER 21 You’re def deep, but now’s the time to lighten up. Drop your guard and try sharing a secret or letting someone else lead, and vibe the vulnerability. The energy of change rippling through the signs could leave you in lotta drama if you don’t release some of your need for control.

SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 22 - DECEMBER 21 You like rolling solo, but this season has you believing that a bestie makes your adventures even more extra. In fact, you can learn a lot from this change. It’ll have you feeling optimistic about your ability to inspire others, not just igniting your own passions.

Summer says let the sunshine in! We’re all getting a cosmic makeover and becoming our most authentic—no filter. It’s time to get lit loving ourselves and looking out for one another.

BY AN D RE A GROV E

CAPRICORN DECEMBER 22 - JANUARY 19 You like to boss up and get what you want, but trusting timing can sometimes prove more powerful than all your best efforts. Review what’s become more meaningful to you now, as it may have you like, “Whoa.” Only then will you know how to lead like the GOAT again.

AQUARIUS JANUARY 20 - FEBRUARY 18 You’re used to being an original, so you might be shaken, wondering who you are when the whole world feels so up in the air. Lead with your visionary spirit and be an example of how to bliss out beyond business as usual. Now more than ever, your style of turning FOMO into JOMO is needed.

PISCES FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 20 Simply put, you are a mood. No stranger to sensitivity, you’ve been able to intuitively thrive in hard times in ways that have made you everyone’s No. 1. This summer only heightens your popularity, so don’t judge yourself for feeling good about it. Keep your boundaries strong to protect all that yummy.

ARIES MARCH 21 - APRIL 19 You’re a leader and hey, you do you. The energy of summer invites you to flex if you can find constructive ways of motivating your fam to be themselves too. You’ll be pleasantly surprised with how much you vibe giving them the confidence you have in abundance.

TAURUS APRIL 20 - MAY 20 You tend to throw shade at change, but say byeee to what isn’t working, and you’ll tap into a reservoir of fresh new energy. The momentum you can gain now from believing in your abilities and championing new causes could easily help build a comfy world for all.

GEMINI MAY 2 1 - JUNE 20 You love to slay all day, so as summer heats up with all the fun you’re dreaming of, slow your roll long enough to reflect on how much you’ve learned from being more discerning about who’s on your team. Keep it 100 with what you bring to the table in relationships and you’re bound to make a match.

CHANGE OF ART Through the charming doodles and playful prompts in Draw Like a Child, illustrator Haleigh Mun persuades us all to put aside perfectionism and make artistic expression an everyday thing. Give it a go with “Random Palette,” the first exercise from her book.

R AN DO M PALET TE It’s easy to get caught up in the way we see the world in everyday life. The sky is blue, the leaves are green, and that’s just the way things are. But you can expand your thinking by simply limiting your color palette. By letting go of this control you have over your drawing, you’ll be surprised by the color choices you make and where your mind goes instead! Choose five pens or markers and use only this limited palette to create your piece. Draw in the box.

DRAW LIKE A CHILD: TAKE CHANCES, MAKE MISTAKES, FIND YOUR ARTISTIC ST YLE!, ($16), is available at bookshop.org
