erica’s things

Funding a book called Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls—ya had me at Serena Williams. (I mean, you always have me at Serena Williams.)
Finding a way to cope with an aBUNdance of unBEARably rainy days.
Venturing trepidatiously into the world of homemade gluten-free breads. Those Hemsley + Hemsley sisters make it easy, though—and related: Their latest cookbook is real, real good.
Celebrating the return of Cribs (to, erm, Snapchat) by grinning my way through this Destiny’s Child ep from *the year 2000*.
Skipping shampoos by subbing in dpHue’s ACV hair rinse for suds on alternating days. And I don’t think my head even smells like salad dressing, so there!

Having serious indecision problems when it comes to planning my next vacation, but trying to narrow down my options via the Hitlist app.
Admiring my husband’s new frames, courtesy of the eyewear geniuses at Gogosha in L.A. They’ve got a stellar selection from independent designers and an insanely efficient system for helping to determine your perfect pair.
Trying out a whole slew of running shoes over the past year and landing back at these super-light and super-tight ones.
Making bedtime reading out of each of the chapters in designer Michael Beirut’s How to… book. The one on the 2000 election is a real winner.
Thanking the Amazon.com gods: My favorite Japanese popocorn is finally, FINALLY accessible stateside. If you only ever take one piece of snack-related advice from me, let it be this one.
