I know, I know, I disappeared again, but this time I really promise to be more consistent.
Honestly, I’ve just been going through a lot, both mentally and physically. The world’s been weird for months, and now the whole getting dark at 4PM thing is making me so unmotivated. I didn’t even feel like going to Target the other day, that’s when you know something’s wrong.
I planned on making this post weeks ago, but better late than never, right?!!! Let’s be honest, I’m giving you a lot more credit than you deserve when it comes to how much you care about what I have to say. But I won’t keep you here any longer, enjoy the things I’ve really liked since the last time I made one of these.
I love an Architectural Digest house tour. Dita’s home makes the maximalist in me salivate. It is everything I want to see in a house. I HATE modern homes, I don’t understand them. I can’t fathom why someone would want to live in a house that is just hues of gray and 90 degree angles. I need color and texture. I want to live in a dream, not an Apple store. Anyway, this house is amazing and I would expect nothing less from this queen. Lily Aldridge’s, Mark Ronson’s, David Harbour’s, and Cara and Poppy Delevingne’s homes are also *chef’s kiss*. Honorable mention to Dakota Johnson’s kitchen.
This summer my dad and I started taking walks every single afternoon after dinner. Being that I spend most of my time at home now, these walks were a huge deal for my mental health. Now that it’s getting dark and cold, walks are no more. My brain hasn’t registered this information yet, so emotionally I’m okay for now, but can’t promise it will last long! If you have any recommendations on how to fill this new void in my life, please, do tell.
I haven’t eaten a rice cake since high school, but for some reason I had an intense craving for them a couple of months ago and these bitches slap. My rice cake of choice is the Lundberg brown rice, salt-free rice cake. She’s so cute. We love her. The possibilities are endless with these babies. Lately my go-to combo has been putting the Siete nacho queso on them and then sprinkling Trader Joe’s Everything Bagel Seasoning on top. You’re welcome.
I know I’m late to the game, but I’ve been watching Criminal Minds and I am obsessed. I just didn’t understand how I could love Mathew Gray Gubler as much as I do, and not have ever watched this show. Clearly I had to change that, and I’m so happy I did. Reid is obviously the love of my life, no one’s surprised. Also I would die for Ms. Penelope Garcia. If there is ever a remake of this show, I call dibs on Garcia.
Discovering this Instagram page is the best and worst thing that has ever happened to me. The username is pretty self explanatory. They post photos of people and you have to guess if they’re siblings or dating. Definitely harder than it should be. Highly recommend as a party game.
I read this essay by Joan Didion in July about why she left New York and I loved it. That is all. Please read and enjoy.
So as usual, I don’t know when I’ll gather enough goods to give you another one of these, but I hope you’ve enjoyed them thus far. Hope you’re all enjoying your time doing whatever you’re doing my kittens.
