A Thing Or Two We’re Doing Besides Booking It
If you’re fantasizing about being anywhere but wherever you are right now, put on your flowiest linen and tune in for our podcast catch-up with Jamie Beck, a ridiculously talented Provence-based photographer who’s truly managed to make the most of quarantine (or, le confinement, as they say in France). Also, if you have thoughts on this ep, our ambition one that seems to have struck a chord, or anything else, our DMs and VMs are open: @athingortwohq and 833-632-5463.

Counting on this easy-to-tote shade during a summer that’s involved, er, even more outdoor time than anticipated.
Highlighting passage after passage of Raven Leilani’s debut, which is a bit Little Fires Everywhere, a smidge Such a Fun Age, a dash Fleabag, and plenty something totally its own.
Working from a seat that is definitely not intended for working and relying on this squisher to keep my butt and back in order. Listen, it’s not pretty, but neither are most of the full-blown desk chairs out there—and at least this can be shoved in a closet when not in use.
Learning more from an oral history of Coyote Ugly than I would have ever guessed.
Spicing up car trips with Fun Dip for veggies. That’s right: Fun Dip for veggies!!!
claire’s things
Rediscovering a favorite tome of my youth: the amazing Macmillan Visual Dictionary.
Tuning into the critically important and highly engaging reporting on our segregated school system—and the role that people like me play in it—happening in Nice White Parents.
Supplementing my rudimentary graphic-design skills with the supremely useful Noun Project.
Hiding everything from children’s toys to podcasting equipment in baskets and eyeing the colorful ones from Baba Tree for my next victims: dish towels. (And, wow, if I had a dog…)
Rolling my eyes at a lot of non-alcoholic beverages that just make me want a glass of water...until Proteau entered my orbit. It’s really good—interesting flavor and not too sweet.
