my oh my, look at that sky
the view of the sunsets from our office window have been nothing short of jaw-droppingly gorgeous lately. it feels like a little gift at the end of every day that comes with a note saying “here you go erika, thanks for remembering for another day that you’re a big girl now, and you’ve got to be up in that office all day and do what you’ve gotta do to pay your bills and live...
candygrams! *wipes drool from double chin* →
designer jessi arrington’s Love Sick candygram story is perfectionary.
oh, um, no thank you, i'm all set.
a piece of spam mail that stuck out from the rest today. because it is fucking horrifying.
baby steps
a very good thing, considering most people just toss them rather than thinking to recycle them, and because toilet paper tubes in the US alone account for 160 million pounds of trash. and while there are obviously more effective ways to green-ify your household and life on a daily basis, this is at the very least a good thing for the less eco-minded masses to get on board with. so yay.

Motherfuckers think I’m moonwalking when I’m standing still.
My only hobby is looking fresh.
I repeat, my only hobby is looking fresh to death.

i love this. so much.
this time of year makes me excited for a brood of wild little rugrats* to make costumes for someday.
*gnarly little boys, preferably.
*hump*
doing a little research on a gallery in maine that we’re looking to do something with in the spring…and i’ll give you two good reasons why i think this might be the best thing we’ve ever done (and the reason why i’ll happily live in a van parked by the sea the rest of my life poppin out chillun and cooking feasts on a hot plate):
why @shaarona & i need to go into business...
little, inspired, thoughtful operations like this turn the core of my blood-pumper into a gooey, warm caramel pit of happiness to see. sharona can bake delicious cupcakes and other hip-padding treats and i can wield a frosting tube to put staches and googly eyes on everything. perfect. time to quit our day jobs.
i heart pies.
a picture's worth a thousand turds
today is a day for
a long-ass stroll. buying food that comes straight from the earth. avoiding drinking establishments.* making a bitchin’ potluck dinner with friends.

a genuinely dandy song to kick the weekend off to.
i am pee-my-pants-excited about san francisco visitors, a spontaneous din party at the apt tonight, and then boogying the night away to a few more CMJ acts. what a nice little life this is turning out to be.
who will go to germany & pick berries with me?

great googly moogly! meatloaf cupcakes!
i’ve always said that someday, when forced to provide sustenance for a family, i’ll cook food exclusively in cupcake tins. good for portion control + fun for a kid to eat. these bad boys, from the Meatloaf Bakery in Chicago, look off the chaaaain. time for a deeeena party methinks.
holy shitmoly. →
i’ve been hoping someone would create just this for so long. alas, here it is: a simple site that helps you locate/add to a database of street wall murals around the world. take a walk and help populate this bad boy, NY looks nakey on the map!
atha: can I tell you something?
me: of course, tell me anything!
