people & places

It’s really not cool, especially now, to be expensively dressed.

I dream that one day we’ll be able to outfit a house solely with Polish brands.

Sometimes I manage to convince a children’s book publisher to make the mayor of a town a woman instead of a man, or to have a boy pretending to cook instead of pretending to race cars.
