A Thing Or Two We’re Doing Besides Accessorizing Our Cords

Won’t you join us for TikTok medical advice and strong opinions about citrus and stoves on this week’s podcast episode? For an extra dose of us in your inbox on Thursdays—intel on Paris shopping, skiing, and SOCKS coming soon—sign up for Secret Menu. This quarter, we’ll be donating new member $$ to Plan C, which is doing the work to facilitate abortion pills by mail.  

erica’s things

• Losing myself in a book that’s a dash Boyhood, a dollop Miriam Toews, a sprinkle Free Solo.
  

• Encountering an ethereal cord cover. Talk about disrupting a category! 
   

• Reporting that this makes me 87% more likely to freeze soup…which makes me 72% less likely to hem and haw about what I’m eating for lunch.
   

• Digging the concept and the execution of this MoMA exhibit—it had me googling a bunch of artists after.
   

• Callin’ it: The olive-oil club is the new wine club.

claire’s things

• Wrestling with complicated feelings about both cops and football via this, about my husband’s high school.
   

• Marveling at how much maternal peace of mind I find in mitten clips. (Yes, of course there’s a cute version.)
   

• Spending a solid chunk of time clicking through all of the incredible pieces on offer from Ukraine-based Gunia Project.
   

• Recognizing the behavior of so many friends (and, to an extent, myself) in the term “social omnivore.” 
   

• Attending a December beach wedding without my usual winter pallor thanks to this gal.
