We are sick of cooking and of Zoom. Oh, you too? Then tune in for our podcast episode feat. two things we’re not over: condiments and other, less screen-time-y ways to keep up with friends. Also! If you were hoping for an A Thing or Two Instagram account some day, today’s the day.
erica’s things
Dubbing this “shrimp-curry bolognese” and intending that as a huge compliment.
Staring at my apartment walls…and asking the dim nooks if they want one of these.
Pouring my rings an it’s-five-o’clock-somewhere tipple of gin.
Reading the words “female-founded snack box." Clicking “add to cart” immediately.
Seizing this opportunity to see Phoebe Waller-Bridge perform live. AND WOW.
claire’s things
Taking all the lighting help I can get for the endless stream of Zooms.
Realizing that I’ve got a thing for Ethiopian music based on how often Mulatu Astatke (A+ working music) and Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou (A+ backstory) are soundtracking my days.
Accepting the new reality in which I have my regular hand sanitizer and my fancy hand sanitizer...which smells so good I legitimately look forward to using it.
Salivating over Clare Salvo’s food art—a red-lentil Lichtenstein, a Magritte you could eat, a vegan Vermeer!
Welcoming a little help in the kitchen from delicious newbies Omsom and Ipsa—the latter of which would make an excellent gift for new parents, by the by.
