In My Brain // It's Gonna Be May





Alexander and the V Bad FML Day // Bet you didn't know that in Mrs. Drescher's third grade class, I won a writing contest for my spin on Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. This New Yorker piece is obviously what my 8-year old self aspired to write.


ILLUSTRATED IMPACT // I loved this interview with Grace Bonney, founder of Design*Sponge.


LABOR // I've come across lots of former students' awesome projects in college and beyond. Jasmine's video knocked my socks off.


THE NEWS TODAY OH BOY // The news every morning is a punch in the face, and I care enough to try and keep up. I'm loving two podcasts that unpack big ideas into palatable chunks for normal people: The Daily, from the failing New York Times (20 minutes is a win!) and Pod Save America (I dare you to listen and not develop a huge crush on the gentlemen's wit, charm, and ridiculous intellect).


HAPPY LISTENING // A playlist by David Byrne.


WHOLE 30 // Two recipes on repeat in our household right now: Slow Cooker Carnitas and Coconut Chicken Thai Curry. Both easy and delicious and perfect for leftovers.
