erica’s things

Planning some fantasy vacations via the flight search engine that dreams are made of, Adioso.
Whipping up a batch of this super-quick rhubarb-chia jam that’s going to make this week’s yogurt consumption a lot less boring.
Realizing that I made it through the whole freaking winter without chapped lips—and that I have Lansinoh (er, technically for breastfeeding moms, but go with it) to thank.
Clearing some time on the schedule to check out the Sight Unseen Offsite, featuring home-slash-industrial design awesomeness, from Of a Kind designers Brook&Lyn, Fort Makers, and Light + Ladder, even. It’s happening in Soho ‘til tomorrow.
Feeling suddenly cool—or at least on-trend?—for not having a microwave.

Loving the Fantasy Dress Up instagram feed that puts celebrities in “what they should be wearing”—e.g. HRC in Louis Vuitton Resort ‘15.
Feeling a lot less daunted by all of the strappy, backless, and generally un-bra-friendly tops hitting the shelves this summer, thanks to these magical little things that work shockingly well. (TMI, I know, but these things are important!)
Doing a deep dive into the world of mid-century Rosenthal China after being handed-down a beautiful set—how good are this and this and this?
Thanking the good people at Mouth for opening an all-American liquor store a few doors down from my apartment.
Perfecting the at-home Saltie method of cooking eggs, which marries the fluffy, easy-to-consume form of scrambled eggs with the runny-yolk goodness of fried eggs. Total game-changer.
