erica’s things

Giving a standing O to the all-female cast of Henry IV at St. Ann's Warehouse in Dumbo, Brooklyn. Even if you don't make it out to see the production, you should probably read this, about being a woman performing Shakespeare.
Planning a trip to Vienna and finding myself very taken with the idea of this way-chic Airstream hotel set-up. (But also: Got any Austria pro-tips?)
Seeing the clear potential of glass waste.
Wanting to stay up all night to read Lauren Groff's Fate and Furies with all of its feeeeeeelings.
Spiffing up my bathroom with some fancy-looking marble sink accessories. There are some rock-solid options out there whether you're into a sharp corner or not.

High-fiving my still-wary-of-this-whole-cooking-thing husband for IDing—and executing!—an A++ delicious, easy, and healthy dinner recipe.
Vowing to get myself to more of the totally free and totally motivating Nike+ Run Club events that happen all week long in cities around the country. If you're looking to tap into a sense of community around running, this is where it's at.
Attending a Jon Kabat-Zinn lecture and being reminded of just how much of an impact his work (this book and this book in particular) has had on me.
Nominating OxiClean for a spot in the stain-removing hall-of-fame (right next to Mr. Clean erasers, obviously). In the last six months alone, it's saved chlorine-tinged swimsuits, coffee-stained couch cushions, and mud-caked running sneakers.
Trying to keep Miss Jones Baking Co brownie mix at arm's length—it is total crack and is somehow better than the Ghirardelli equivalent, which I've considered the standard-bearer since my college days.
