Help me find this vegan cookbook for my partner's birthday please!!!

I saw it on a website a few weeks ago and now I can't remember the name of it! From what I recall, it is a new book coming out and has an all maroon/brick red hardcover with no print on the front (I think the name of it was pressed into the cover?) I think it is of international recipes that are naturally vegan? It was still in the start-up phase and isn't on store shelves yet. I'm sorry I can't remember much more! Any help would be appreciated 🙏🙏🙏

Two ceremonies too much in summer heat?

Our wedding will be in a relatively shady area outdoors, and the reception will be in a covered pavilion with ceiling fans. Are two ceremonies too much in one day during summer? Guest lodging, ceremony, and reception are all in the same location, so we figure people could hang out at their rooms if they don't want to attend both ceremonies. Below is our tentative schedule:

3:00PM Cultural ceremony

3:30PM Traditional dance (everyone involved, even guests)

3:45PM Cocktail Hour

5:00PM Traditional American ceremony

5:30PM Guests invited to dinner

5:45PM Grand Entrance & First Dance

6:00PM Tables start getting food

Edit to add: my fiance and I are trying to combine two different cultural practices into one day instead of making it a 2-day event. Would it be better to have two shorter ceremonies or one longer one? We're leaning towards two because we will wear different clothing for the first ceremony and to give proper time to both traditions.

Get in ghouls, we're practicing self-control and accountability 🖤✨

Update to original post

I used to buy around one to two (or three) new dolls a month until three months ago when I made a post about feeling overwhelmed by my collection and decided to take a pause from buying. And the pause has been great!

I feel less overwhelmed by my collection and pausing has allowed me to really think about if I actually want the doll or if I just want the dopamine hit of a new doll. Reorganizing, washing, and styling my collection has helped me feel less inclined to buy a new doll. I'm even thinking about getting into customizing like rerooting all my poly dolls to nylon or saran!

I would love to hear, what are ways you fight the urge to splurge? Do you set any "rules" for yourself to follow in order to determine if you should or shouldn't buy a doll?

I know my pause will end eventually, so now I'm navigating how to add to my collection at a slowed pace that is comfortable for me.

Thanks to everyone who commented on my original post. Your advice was so helpful 💖
