Happy Sunday! And welcome to The Sunday Scroll. How’s it going in your neck of the woods?

Tbh I’m having the time of my English major life with our brand-new book club, right here in The Landing!

I’m hearing from many of you who have started our February pick, Theo of Golden, and are enjoying it so far. No spoilers here, but believe me when I say: it’s the best book I’ve ever read. I’m dead serious. On Tuesday I’ll share my initial thoughts on the why I love the book so much and keep it pretty spoiler-free. If you’d like to join us, we’re saving a seat for you!

I’ve got an interesting roundup of links this week: the best Super Bowl app, the fierce woman who inspired Netflix’s The Diplomat, the most detailed (and helpful) stories of breast reductions and mastectomies I’ve ever read — and, of course, some good memes and Reels. Let’s get scrolling!

Also, thank you to Leesa for sponsoring this week’s Sunday Scroll. We chose Leesa Sapira Chill Hybrid Mattresses for our lake house, and every guest asks why the bed is so comfortable. We loved them so much we turned around and bought more. Right now, save 30% during Leesa’s President’s Day Sale (Feb 10–23) plus an extra $50 off with my code EMILYLEY50 at leesa.com.

  1. The best Super Bowl app of all time? This Buffalo chicken dip! So creamy, so tangy — I can’t stop eating it. Psst: you can use canned chicken breast in this recipe and no one will know the difference!

  2. Inventions you’ll recognize, and the Black women who created them. So thankful for the brilliant contributions of these women! I use many of these things every single day, and I bet you do too.

  3. What the happiest country gets right about work. Kinda makes you want to move there, doesn’t it?
