erica’s things

  • Scarfing down so many (too many?) St. Louis specialties and realizing that some of ‘em could be shipped to me by Goldbely for special-occasion gorging (heyo, Ted Drewes frozen custard).

  • Building up Magformers, which exist somewhere between blocks and tangrams, amuse everybody, and, thanks to their magnets, practically clean up after themselves.

  • Switching out Campari for the California-made aperitivo St. George Spirits Bruto Americano, an A++ rec from A Few Things guest Megan Krigbaum. And that bottle!

  • Picking up alllll kinds of intel about war by way of this fascinating book about the weird science that underpins the military-industrial complex—like finding the best fabric for combat-zone underpants.

  • Planning a return visit to the Alamo Drafthouse in Downtown Brooklyn stat—so civilized with the reserved seating and the cocktails and the ginormous bowls of parmesan-herb popcorn.

claire’s things

  • Celebrating Hanukkah by frying up an addictive (and healthier) take on a latke. The sauce is key, but sub in greek yogurt for sour cream.

  • Raising a very suspicious eyebrow when my husband brought this thing into our home...and then promptly becoming reliant on it. Not for nothing, it’s a stellar facilitator of at-home dance parties.

  • Mainlining Maria Semple’s latest book—zero surprise to anyone who read her last one.

  • Reconsidering what I thought was the inevitable purge of my so-comfy but so-ratty favorite chair after ogling the impressive work of the team at Chairloom.

  • Licking the rim of my cocktail clean ‘cause it was covered with this tangy delight—which is also delicious on tacos and god knows what else: fish, fruits...POPCORN?!

  • Doing a whole silver lewk ℅ this and these. (Worn with something monochrome and the air of a confident older woman, natch.)
