good day to you honeys!

yesterday i put out all our lawn furniture and outdoor cushions and uncovered the picnic table and put out the umbrella and deep-cleaned every inch of our grill — all in an attempt to bribe the sun to stick around for the rest of the weekend. i think it’s working? trying not to jinx it tho:

1.  finally hit up honey bagel! they were sold outta chopped chocolate so i went poppy. a+.
2.  seth says i can’t steal his matzah anymore or he’ll run outta sandos. q: we only got 1 box?!

5.  percy‘s a big boi now, but i like to remember him as pyt, a pair of ears surveying the lands.
6.  daaaaang taylorsmith how the hell you gonna make us believe this a basement? prove it.
7.  y’all tried república yet? i wanna go — now that we’re half vaxx’d, feels like i’m halfway there
8.  woo! it’s almost taurus szn! gonna try and channel bone bone‘s big birthday energy this year.
9.  idk how i got on strategist uk, but i can tell u this: we own a lot of imported status choco now.
10.  the aerial tree walk at the just reno’d leach botanical garden! love me some aerial things!
11.  rach, queen of the playlists, is truly keeping me going w/ this 90s/00s summer mixtape.
12.  re: 90s/00s goodness — hands on a hardbody (’97) & last days of disco (’98). both so great.
13.  prob our most pandemmy habit: ordering weekly fresh baked bread from a sweet insta lady.
14.  “still, it is the house on meadow lane that may be the designer’s most passionately austere creation. it stands as a subtle rebuke to contemporary excess and gaudiness, etched like salt spray on the sparse landscape: silent, transparent, elemental.” – in south hampton, a beach house not like the others, t: the nytimes style magazine

howdy friends!

there’s a decent view of the street from our dining room and i’ve spent much of this indoor year looking out that window and clocking whenever a doggo walks by. the other day i was in there having lunch and looked up from my gut-friendly lettuce wrap (desperately trying to mix it up) and noticed a big ole chalk drawing at the end of our driveway. not just some basic neighborhood hopscotch graffiti, like, a full-ass chalk mural: hearts and peace signs and butterflies, all surrounding one word, “JUSTIS.” near the bottom, the middle school vandals included a drawing of a pair of roller skates and tagged their piece “the roller girls.” there were no other murals on our block, not in front of our next-door neighbors or across the street. it was hard not to feel special to have been selected, a random act of heartfelt ephemera just for seth and me. i took out my phone to take a photo, and saw all the way on the next block two girls in roller skates busy at work on their next masterpiece. i put my phone away instead, and went back inside. it’s a pretty great world out there sometimes:

1.  took a year to discover it’s v easy to get a rapid test in pdx. here’s 2 the day this info’s moot.
2.  i’m a real mug elitist (esp handle feel) & lemme tell u covet & ginger ticks every dang box.
3.  already est. billie is endlessly impressive to me so i’ll gladly accept cool vids of her anytime.
4.  linds & i just got these cute wrist weights to power walk our blues away. ooof 1lb’s no joke.
5.  more things like noah’s “interestingness of a photograph as it relates to time” in my feed pls.
6.  still thinking about these 3 diy petting zoo goats living their best lives a few blocks from us.
7.  confession: this immediately transports me to the hills circa 2006. unwritten was such a bop!!
8.  wait a min there’s a plant-based grain bowl juice cafe in kenton now? nopo movin’ on up y’all.
9.  here’s how we’re escaping now: seth’s geoguessr-ing & i’m full slow tv. brb sailing 2 grenada.
10.  kai sent me down a future of work spiral & now my brain’s twisted up but i wanna read it all.
11.  new 2021 vision board candidates: cool af lisa, saucy debby, & a lil hedgie doing his lil best.
12.  le pigeon x jupiter next is truly one of the classiest pandemmy pivots out there rn. ends 4/3!
13.  “they let us into the life of a creative mind in quarantine, but they asked to share one caveat: ‘obsessing over what it did to me specifically almost inexcusably leaves out my constant awareness of the damage to my community, the arts in general, to say nothing of the half a million dead americans,’ wrote the composer nico muhly. ‘this whole thing is very bad.'” – 75 artists on how they spent a year in lockdown

hallo people!

here’s a quarantine story. i’ve been having trouble making decisions, even small ones. so seth and i developed a solution: as soon as i get stuck, he grabs a small object like a quarter or a balled-up post-it and brings it behind his back, moving it from hand to hand and telling me which of the two options the object represents. he then brings his two fists from behind his back and i of course randomly pick one. either the quarter or an empty hand. fate decides. big fan of this game. lemme know if you ever want to play:

1.  watched the billie eilish doc knowing nothing. it was a gift tho maybe too many tarantulas?? 
2.  yes, ok, hamilton, though put me down as partial to lafayette + his partner’s ad house tour.
3.  not 2 turn this into a gumba fanboi account, but this just in: their drinks are killer & they party.
4.  naturally i do not watch this show, so i assume it’s always this perfect. *bale nods w/ me
5.  u go chef anthony! expand those unicorn food truck wings! fly into the brick & mortar skies!
6.  it’s been 6 million years since i left the house & now i’m writing this outside so, yes, i agree.
7.  thong song story briefly got me waxing nostalgic for an amazing period of truly terrible music.
8.  coulda used this down pillow round-up last time i tried to upgrade ours. world’s worst google.
9.  pining 4 a floating deck since day 1 so my “just b/c” pistils appt is making seth v nervous.
10.  wknd plans: figure out how to stream moonstruck and, oh right, adjust the microwave clock.
11.  a recent visit w/ my in-laws reignited my ♡ 4 werther’s that’s truer than anything i’ve known.
12.  pugh got me considering a switch 2 yorkshire gold. brits pls confirm if this is the right move.
13.  “despite how legends want to be seen, this is probably how we most want to see them. as living proof that a life of ups and downs and hard work and too much work ends with you rich as fuck, sitting next to a violin-shaped pool with the family you’ve created to supplant the one you had to endure.” – allison p. davis’ stellar mariah carey profile

ok yay!

mood check: i’m definitely feeling the positive side effects of some verified sunshine on my little punim. maybe that’s why all these jazzy corridor playlists are doing it for me (see #6)? whatever, man. i’ll take it. *joyfully throws soft boomerang into an open field*:

1.  early march reminder that inflatable pools go quick & old ones rip. semper paratus honeys!
2.  pls pls pls can someone make sure jane lynch is def avail for the revival? tyvm in advance.
3.  almost quoted this mushroom one, but then didn’t because a tweet is uniquely its own thing.
4.  now that haley sold me on classy coups, v excited to get adventurous w/ my cocktails to-go.
5.  ed note: i feel bad when i accidentally hype sold out shit. may i interest u in a peace offering?
6.  when the reigning monthly playlist champ rec’s a monthly playlist u kno it’s gotta be good shit.
7.  “an [e-commerce] platform of discovery for a lifestyle that is different.” – undisclosed, fun!
8.  went with sw alabaster due to $$ & i’ll always regret not doing the trim. at least it’s popular!
9.  s/o to my mom 4 this perfect grinder slash gateway drug to a stellar whole bean subscription.
10.  real talk: nothing better than being absolutely riveted by a spooky nyc apt tiktok thread.
11.  ♡ that big night is #4 on this list & gets an illustration. ugh what a heartbreakingly hot cast.
12.  adored sylvan esso’s live concert series so much & now it’s free! with love 3.5 at 6pm pst.
13.  what would have had to go different in my life to now be making a living as an audio-maker?
14.  look, being the only 1 in our house who “likes zoos” is a challenge we’re working through.
15.  why yes, sure. $700 lipstick crystal pillbox is def one word for what that might be used for.
16.  “the purpose of a meeting is not to fill the allocated slot on the google calendar invite. the purpose is to communicate an idea and the emotions that go with it…” – seth godin, toward a zoom agreement

ok, wow.

so, the last one of these i sent was forever ago — almost a year. but lately i’ve surprised myself thinking about how much i miss sending them. there’s the connection with all of you and the thrill of discovery and just, like, getting to share something fun and sweet and unexpected during a time that just, isn’t. so i figured, why tf not. viva la sea:

1.  just watched pistol shrimps & now i have a freakish desire to learn a sport for a rec league.
2.  in one fell text, kate has given me wings 2 finally tackle a personal aesthetic glow-up journey.
3.  bless garbage day for making me feel a little less old as sh*t on the internet. i can hang now!
4.  if mariah’s v-day remix isn’t on a weird jury-rigged ig stereo repeat, pls pause & get it 2gether.
5.  re: sweet and unexpected, there’s an underground bakery in portland. speakeasy scone bb.
6.  look, i know this is just a published david yurman press release, but idk i waaaaaaaant one.
7.  speaking of big rich ppl energy, h/t this sexy german bakery & the playlists they rode in on.
8.  an unsolicited takeout recco: malka‘s bellflower chaos salad with chicken in fish sauce glaze.
9.  this slack transcript had me in tears. smart ppl being funny together as a group? ♡ to see it!
10.  not tired of puzzles, but also put a qr code murder mystery into l’rotation so, um, send help.
11.  i love this video so dang much. i thought it might get old, but nope. just checked still slaps.
12.  controversh to plug pods so v sry in advance. seek treatment s1 is making me lol out loud.
13.  aesthetics wiki, but as a living coffee table book & cocktail i can curl up with this weekend.
14.  “not that i grew up all at once right then, but some things punch you in the face and you fly through the air and land somewhere completely different. you walk on from there.” – miranda july
