erica’s things

Roasting carrots in seven minutes flat with the help of a spiralizer and this winner of a recipe.
Kicking off the weekend with a 30-minute facial at Heyday...and imagining a world where this could become a semi-regular thing.
Counting down the days ‘til the 2017 U.S. Open (good thing I’m stellar at counting!). Think I can validate purchasing a bottle of Chambord to serve up (heh) the punny and oddly delicious signature cocktail, the Honey Deuce, in the meantime?
Praising whoever created this free invoice generator—because why not make that process as easy as possible.
Feeling so much more informed about cycles of poverty in American cities thanks to Matthew Desmond’s gripping Evicted, which follows eight families and two landlords grappling with the rental-housing realities in Milwaukee.

Drumming up serious enthusiasm for the absolute superstars of Brooklyn United marching band and danceline—and knowing that from now on any party where they don’t perform is going to be little bit of a let-down.
Telling Us Weekly to watch its back because The Ringer’s Jam Session podcast is coming for it. Think: If A Few Things was exclusively about celebrity gossip.
Conducting a trust-fall-free team retreat in a ridiculously convenient and chicly outfitted Breather space.
Thinking LaCroix fan art has definitely peaked with the launch of this site that lets you design your own can.
Discovering that jumbo paper clips make a surprisingly elegant gift wrap accessory. Use ‘em to attach greeting cards to ribbon or other surfaces—just don’t tell washi tape I told you because I don’t want it getting jealous.

Smudging this goodness on my cheeks, my lips, and any other parts of my mug that need some cheering up.
