10 Things We’re Doing Other Than Making You a Beyonce Link Round-up

erica’s things

Getting giddy whenever Miss Moss does one of her food-plus-fashion roundups. Street style and recipes, whaaaa?!
Really appreciating the gift of cacti/succulent greenness this time of year—I scored a flat of teeny, tiny guys (growing up!) from San Pedro Cactus on Etsy.
Catching up on the books I missed in 2012 with the help of the Slaughterhouse 90210 reading list. Currently devouring: the really wonderful Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk.
Stocking up on cozy-making Voluspa candles—they come in fancy little tins and are half as expensive as these things typically are.
Wanting to know a whole lot more than I do about Hugh Hefner’s 2,500-volume, Guinness-record-holding scrapbook collection, as spotted on The Coveteur. Come on, internet, what are you good for, if not this?

Feeling really grateful for my fleece-lined running pants on my sub-freezing morning runs.
Obsessing over (Of a Kind alum!) Brook&Lyn’s latest creations: insanely gorgeous wall hangings.
Taking my avocado toast to new heights with the addition of boquerones, a.k.a. fancy anchovies.
Spending too much time playing with the New York Times’ awesome Red Carpet Project—and remembering a time when Nicole Kidman’s Dior dress was one of the bigger controversies in Tom Cruise’s life.
Staring mesmerized at this time-lapse video showing the behind-the-scenes action at an Ann Street Studio shoot that went down in our office a few weeks ago. (I have a 2-second cameo. Hair flip.)
