10 Things We're Doing Besides Instagramming Deals

Dec 12

Do you follow us on Instagram? We’re quite witty and pretty over there. Right now, we’re also taking half off a single jewelry edition daily over there. Each one only lasts 24 hours, and it all ends on Friday—so warm up your double-tapping fingers fast.

SMSing my way to restaurant recommendations in those neighborhoods that I so do not know: Just tell Text Rex what you’re looking for, and voilà—you saved yourself 15 minutes of googling.
Soaking up this shower-design trend (yes, shower-design trend).
Vowing to read any and all of the totally gripping, kind of nutty stuff that Nell Zink puts out there: Nicotine is her latest, but I still think about Mislaid.
Tipping my hat to Ebbets, which reproduces vintage baseball apparel, including Negro Leagues ballcaps and Japanese jerseys, with mounds of charm.
Treating a few pals in need of self-care ‘n coziness fixes to the mushroom hot cocoa from Four Sigmatic that promises 1) to have a calming effect and 2) not to taste like mushrooms.

Feeling paralyzed by the sheer number of so-easy-looking and so-up-my-alley recipes in A Modern Way To Cook. A small sampling: a creamy vegan miso tomato soup that’s ready in in 20 minutes, dried apricots sauteed in saffron and orange juice, and the least sad desk lunch one can imagine.
Mentally furnishing my fantasy home with the simple, Midwest-made pieces from Hedge House.
Judging a bottle by its label, and Sant Aniol blows everything else out of the water. Also important: It’s really good-tasting H2O!
Queuing up my favorite (and way underrated) holiday movie: Nora Ephron’s Mixed Nuts. Steve Martin! Juliette Lewis! Rita Wilson! And so many more.
Jinxing myself by bragging about this, but...steering clear of the runny noses and sore throats crowding our office by popping these guys daily.

Prepping for that time of year when winter coats and shoulder straps wage war with one another—and avoiding the whole mess by throwing my stuff into this ridiculously chic little number.
