10 Things We're Doing Besides Thinking Up Witty Subject Lines
erica’s things
Sweating the concept of The Heirloomist, which gives keepsakes the larger-than-life status they deserve in the form of rad, poster-size still-life photos.
Brightening up my towels 'n tees with The Laundress Whites Detergent. Next up, I'll de-wrinkle clothes with some ice cubes.
Looking for more, more reading material on Jesse Krimes, an artist who produced work during a 70-month jail sentence using prison soap and bedsheets that is showing right now in NYC.
Counting down the days 'til Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk hits theaters. MAN, did I love that book—do right by it, Ang Lee, plz and thx.

Giving gravity—and stress—the ole heave-ho for an hour by hanging out in a pitch-dark, epsom-salt-filled float pod.
Banking a new party trick: Shoving my phone in people's faces to show them the money shot from this cents-less accident.
Passing out copies of The New Better Off to friends, and not just because I'm dying to talk about it with anyone who will listen—it's an immensely useful and comprehensive consideration of the changing standards we're all holding ourselves to.
Revisiting a high-school love affair...with Ally McBeal. Late nineties fashions, early Jane Krakowski, and that dancing baby—a perfectly escapist time capsule.
Other people's things (aka #my10things—submit away!):
Drinking oh-so-much more ginger tea: These frozen cubes (available at Trader Joe's!) deliver that spicy goodness, no peeling required. Discovered by @therussianist.
Getting all hopped-up on two bun-tastic discoveries: the existence of rabbit speed-dating (discovered by @marysunnymccoy) and these bags that disguise your junk as a lop-eared bundles of joy (discovered by @wenxiao.guo.tiano).
turn it up to 11—from claire!
Thanking Erica's mom (!!!) for discovering the ceramicist who made this stunning creation.
