This week we’re back with one of our favourite traditions — our Read / Watch / Listen Roundup! Leah enters her semi-retired era (Eydie is recovering), we talk about seasonal lattes that taste like candle wax, and Eydie unveils her new sacred ritual: pre-pajama loungewear.

Leah: Stretch your Starbucks gift cards by saving them for seasonal drinks… unless you discover you hate them.
Eydie: Natural Life and ANRABESS lounge sets — perfect for cozy evenings and not quite pajama time.
