The most used (and fought over) item in our home is this kids folding lawn chair that we got at a stoop sale for $3. It’s the perfect little pizza perch for James when we have movie night, but it gets used in every room + then tucks away at night. It’s such a bummer they don’t make this tie dye style anymore, in lieu of cartoon characters :( And it seems hard to find this brand online :( This Peppa Pig one isn’t all that bad, as far as characters go. This one is a little over the top but also kinda cute. And this is a nice plain one with the option for an umbrella.

I’m getting my first vaccine next week. Hallelujah! There are two upcoming exhibits in New York I can’t wait to see: Alice Neel’s People Come First at the Met, one of my favorite portrait artists I studied in school. And Jonas Wood’s Four Landscapes at Pace Prints, a collaboration with master printer Yasu Shibata where each print required between 12-24 wood blocks, all carved with traditional hand tools. Extraordinary. Can’t wait to see these and more in person soon!!

Spring is here, and the bright colors blooming everywhere are making me want bright colors on my body too. I love the simplicity of this Ilana Kohn Billy Dress in Blazberry Blue.

I know I mentioned The Skinny Confidential last week, but this week I listened to their interview with Guy Raz. I am a long time consumer of How I Built This, but this was the first time I’ve heard Guy on the other side of the interview. He is a gem, and I loved hearing his story and his work with his podcast.

Mathias turned one last week ! India was very into planning his “party” (cupcakes outside with neighbors). She recently discovered my Darcy Miller book, Celebrate Everything and has spent a lot of time studying the parties we can have (truly my daughter). She voted to put little plastic animals on cupcakes for Mathias. I bought these animals, and it was the simplest way to dress up a very basic cupcake. The kids were thrilled!
