New Platform, Same Dish!
Welcome to my Substack, The Darling Dish!
Staring at the blank page before you….
It’s time friends. Well, it’s been time honestly, but learning a new platform and getting rid of my automatic emails was a daunting task but we’re just diving in. Thanks for sticking with me while I figure out how to be a 42 year old influencer.
I’ve been thinking about what actually makes me happy in life. Of course, being a mom is my top priority, but the last few years, I’ve felt like teaching took over my life. You can be a great mom and a great teacher, but I personally can’t without being Erin first. I’m making myself a priority, sharing things that I love, because while I love my job, it is not my whole life. So if you were previously following me for teaching content, I hope you stick around, because you will still see glimmers of that here and there. If you’re new here and excited for the old lady content, THANK YOU for being here! Each and every one of you mean more to me than a donut, and that is saying a lot!
Enter: The Darling Dish
The Darling Dish is a place where I share things that I GENUINELY love. Books that make me happy, cosmetics that actually work for ladies who have lived through dancing on the bars to a T-Pain song, clothes that are comfortable and cute, and things that B and I just love and use on a regular basis.
Date with a Book
Wellllll isn’t it Survivor that says expect the unexpected? I can’t wait to share random thoughts along with what I am currently reading, wearing, and loving! I also am planning on starting a new video series :A Date with a Book, where B and I choose an adventure or two from a book and go off on a date. I*absolutely will not procrastinate* and make a reel on Instagram sharing what we did and ideas you can do on an actual date or a family date. Leave a comment and let me know what books you want to see on the Date with a Book series!
Monthly Dish Emails
My goal is to Dish at least once a month! I love an accountability partner, so if you haven’t heard from me by the end of the month, head over to instagram to get me moving! I will still share my book thoughts over there, but this is a way to share more than just books. How do you feel about the Dish? Would you rather have one email a month or two?
Tomorrow we complete the first month of 2026! I can’t wait to share all my monthly favs wrapped up in a little bow, just for you!
Until then, Happy Reading :)
