After a week and a half away (Vermont & Point Reyes,) my apartment was an absolute disaster and I was having trouble motivating to clean it. I’d start, become distracted, or just realize it was a lot to do and start something else! Finally, last night I decided to just start as fast as I [...]

Friday morning, sleepy mouse eyes. Tumbled out of bed and into the land of Crixa Cakes, nibbled Fatima’s thighs, chocolate mousse, teapots of the best chai in the world. On a mission to find a white dresser, we found this charming solid oak vintage one, for $15. Sure, it needs some love, but I have some to [...]

Christmas always makes me want to be in New York, though the last time I spent a Christmas in NY I was probably 10 years old. Every holiday of my childhood included visits to my grandparents, and my great grandfather. I even had chicken pox one year. I’d sleep in the car on the drive, [...]
