A Thing Or Two We’re Doing Besides Ogling Moldy Lemons

This week on the pod, we talk to *the* Kim France—she of Sassy, Lucky, Girls of a Certain Age, and, now, one of our new favorite podcasts about life as a woman over 40. AND! And. We share a meditation exercise that we’re both carrying on about, which: We know, we know. In a far less annoying move, we put all of our advertiser coupon codes in one place for convenience’s sake. Thanks for supporting the brands that support us!  

erica’s things

• Taking weird pleasure in rotten fruit.

• Becoming a natural-deodorant serial monogamist. I’m currently in a committed relationship with this guy, a real charmer with his genius packaging and fragrance-free option.

• Leaning hard on tatsoi to get me through the arugula shortage. It’s spinach-y but less so, if that makes sense?

• Appreciating a fabric scrap put to excellent use. See: these scrunchies, these napkins, these Nikes.

• Consuming Midnight Chicken more like an essay collection than a cookbook—and wondering if there’s a non-pretentious way to incorporate the Britishism faff into my vocabulary.

claire’s things

• Finding a way around my disdain for sliming moisturizer all over my body.

• Adopting a new go-to comfort food that’s only slightly more work than a box of mac ‘n cheese.

• Delighting in the luxury of having a printer at home for the first time in years—a tiny-but-mighty one that tucks away quite neatly.

• Marveling at the simple brilliance of a website that tells you the best way to glue one thing to another thing.

• Bathing in nostalgia via @adarchives. Remember Kookaï?
