Welcome to Waeve Check. We are happy to have you here.
We are welcoming the warmer weather with open arms ! Our transition to spring marks a transition to prepping and planning for everything we have in store for you all. As always, we wanted to share all of the film, tv, and literature we've been tapping into as we continue to build, grow, and expand.
What we are reading:
We are continuing our reading grind and it feels oh so good. Whether you're reluctantly joining a book club your friend recommended or browsing titles in an independent bookstore on a lazy Sunday afternoon, we are happy to help you along to find something to munch on. Here are some titles we are loving and learning from. Fellow book-worms feel free to opine !

What we are listening to:
We are always in the mood to groove. We've been enjoying solo walks through parks, nature conservancies, and sometimes just around the neighborhood. These are the tunes that have been helping us through the many phases of spring.
