Elizabeth Taylor

I'm Gretchen Rubin, a writer who studies happiness, good habits, human nature.

I'm in my little home office here in New York City, and joining me today from Los Angeles is my sister, Elizabeth Craft.

And Elizabeth, we just got together in Kansas City.

Yes.

That's me, Elizabeth Craft, a TV writer and producer living in LA.

And Gretch, we were supposed to go to Nantucket, the three of us, you, me, and Mom, but there was a storm, so we pivoted and had a great time in KC.

Well, a side note, Elizabeth, something you taught me, I always thought a nor'easter was just the way New England people said big storm, and so I always felt a little bit silly using it myself-

[laughs]

Despite being so busy, um, had a great little reading stretch.

As part of the trip, I was trying to think of some books that would be a little bit location appropriate, and so again, kind of looking forward to one of our upcoming episodes with Elizabeth Taylor, um, I did bring along an Elizabeth Taylor book that I got to read in London and surrounding areas, which was Palladian, which I won't give away too much since we'll be talking about all those.

But she just is so consistently good and, and every one of her books is obviously very different from one another, but just the level of the quality and, and the enjoyment that I get out of reading her books is, is always the same.

So that was fun.

All right.

Yeah.

I-- tho- those are all, other than the Elizabeth Taylor ones that I have not, I have not read.

Nice.

And Elizabeth, I love to talk about accountability with you.

[laughs]

We talk about it often.

That's me, Elizabeth Craft, a TV writer and producer living in LA, and yes, I am an obliger, Gretchen.

I need my accountability.

Yeah.
