34 Days

2020 has been R-O-U-G-H. There's no two ways about it. 

But we are now thirty-four days out from one of the most crucial elections of our time. And if last night's presidential debate didn't make it clear, here's another reminder: Get people to turn out on November 3 to vote. Here are a few merch pieces to help spread the word and inspire people to fulfill their civic duties: 

CORROON Vote Tote // 12|12 Kids Embroidered Face Mask // RESISTANCE BY DESIGN Adult Mask // MAISON ME Kids Vote Sweatshirt // KULE Women's Vote Socks // LINGUA FRANCA x I am a Voter Sweater // JENNIFER MEYER Vote Necklace 


*** Carroon, Jennifer Meyer and Lingua Franca are donating a portion of the proceeds from their vote-happy pieces to I am a voter. - a nonprofit and nonpartisan organization focussed on civic engagement

Get registered to vote, check your voter registration and sign up for election reminders all at I am a voter. today. Our democracy is at stake and no one can afford to sit this one out.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: Derrick Velasquez

Nothing about Denver-based Derrick Velasquez's art is boring. He works in a variety of mediums but my favorite works are part of an untitled series made of vinyl and wood. Each piece is full of color grounded by gravity. Almost like intricate fans or a modern rainbow with layers on layers - I'm OBSESSED. 

I dream of hanging one of these pieces in our home to inspire daily smiles. Perhaps a commission? 

Join me in following this great artist and take a moment to peruse his work. I promise, you won't regret it.

RECIPE 16: Matzo Brei

Alrighty y'all! I took a month off to enjoy summer, keep my head above water and turn 35! That's right folks... I'm officially old, but you know what? It feels damn good and just right (more on that later...)

But now I'm back and Paulo and I have been continuing to cook through Alison Roman's Dining In. So today's recipe... #16... is Matzo Brei. 

Notably, Ms. Roman does not include a photo of this dish in her book because whelp... it's just not very attractive but damn is it richly delicious. No matter how you style it this dish just won't look pretty. So no judgements, I'm bravely posting a photo here so you really know what this gem looks like. 


What this dish lacks in looks it makes up for in comforting deliciousness. Buttery onions served a little sloppy with the matzo adding substance but not too much, it's the perfect recipe to cure a hangover or cozy up with on a rainy weekend. Ready to try it? Click HERE for the full recipe of Alison Roman's Matzo Brei (and don't forget the sour cream or apple sauce to serve alongside.)
