10 Things We're Doing Besides Feeling Really Ready for Spring, Howboutu?
Lately on the podcast:
We dished about cleanse-ish type behavior and got real with our favorite ex-MTV VJ about personal finances.
We confessed to how we’ve basically stopped dealing with anything that feels too complicated (don’t worry—we’re still brushing our teeth, for now) and then quizzed an expert on what the deal is with barre classes and why everyone’s addicted to them.
P.S. Pssssst, over here. You'll want to see this. Some prices fell (but none were hurt).
erica’s things
Pledging to read all of Jami Attenberg’s books after tearing through her most recent, All Grown Up.
Keeping all the hats ‘n gloves ‘n scarves at the ready in this basket ‘til slush-puddle season is behind us. (WHEN WILL THAT BE?)
Simmering lentils and rice at the same time. Great with caramelized onions, yes, but also without as a side for fish or whatever.
Nodding along to this thingy about how to cold-email—something I’ve been dedicating too much brain space to ‘cause, hey, we’ve been doing some hiring!
Adding pivoting windows and brick floors to the list of home-design things I’m feeling right now—oh-so-many of which this house in Tucson checks off.
claire’s things
Taking my guy on a (pirate-themed! indoor!) mini-golf adventure for his bday at Shipwrecked in Brooklyn. Also file under: great way to entertain kids on snow days.
Thumbing through a couple of picture books that got me real choked-up about being a woman—this and this (the proceeds of which go to Planned Parenthood) would make great gifts for the teen in your life.
Refusing to leave the house without this stuff in my purse. It’s my first line of defense against my chronic migraines, and it really does work wonders.
Getting so, so much more than grooming tips out of this amazing two-minute video of centenarians discussing their beauty routines.
Keeping a close eye on this nine-year-old fashion critic and illustrator with a spot-on sense of what makes a look work.

Offering up over $200 worth of goodies for way less than that—plus the chance to see Erica and me struggle awkwardly through some ballerina-type stuff...which is definitely priceless.
