Last night, my friend Claire and I went to play trivia at a local bar. Are you good at trivia? I never know things like who was president when, but I was able to identify what fairy tale had a villain known simply as the Evil Queen and the names of all five Great Lakes. “I self-identify as smart,” my friend Rob told me yesterday. “But I’m truly terrible at trivia.” Made me laugh. Are you the same?

Anyway, the third round was all about music. The host played 30 seconds of each song, and you had to name the artist or band. One was Ella Fitzgerald, another was UB40; and the exercise got me in the mood to make a playlist. So, my loves, here’s a winter playlist for you, if you’d like something to listen to while taking a shower, making dinner, or reading in bed.

Three more Cup of Jo playlists, if you’re in the mood:
* Fall walks
* Great covers
* Make-out songs

What do you think? I’d love to hear what you’re listening to these days. xoxo
