Jesus: To dedicate 2023 to the color blue. Thrift the perfect royal blue, velvet cocoon coat (they have a mannequin vision for the Garden that they can’t get out of their head…they MUST find this coat). Try out various blue lipsticks. Find that navy skirt with the deep slit (it’s gotta be buried in the closet somewhere). Hunt thrifted roller skates to sell at the Garden. Style a photoshoot (maybe Mama Mary in her greenhouse? Jo loves to take pictures of her there). Make out with cuties.
Mags: To learn Aimee Mann’s bass lines in ‘Til Tuesday’s Voices Carry. Make more money. Put the scent of apricot in a perfume. Commit to band practice every week. Try an undercut. Make out with Luc.
Jo: To drink more water, less coffee. Take more pictures of Mary in her greenhouse (with her consent). Craft a bench for the Garden. Talk to that one maple tree…they seem wise.
Mary: To try Tres Leches cake in 3 more restaurants. Grow vervain. Sleep late. Walk Edentown with Jo each morning. Continue to deeply appreciate the purr of Holy Ghost.
Luc: To try out some graphic eyeliner looks. Start a music zine (...maybe Mags will help). Donate or sell some clothes to the Garden. Make out with Mags.
