What are you up to this weekend? We’re hosting a low-key dinner party tonight — and might do this conversation starter. Otherwise we’ll be cozying up and daydreaming about spring. Hope you have a good one, and here are a few fun links from around the web…
The trailer for Veep Season 6!
What a powerful photo essay.
The case for walkable streets: “Researchers found that if someone shifts from a long commute to a walk, their happiness increases as much as if they’d fallen in love.”
If you’re into toast, how about fried toast?
Wishlisting this pretty shirt for the spring.
Interracial couples talk about seeing Get Out together.
The greatest gif, haha.
“Woman in Group Text Suspicious There’s Another Group Text.”
Curved landscapes. Made me look.
Would you wear kitten fur perfume? Or new baby?!
What a sweet family snapshot. Love this kind of everyday photo.
Plus, two great reader comments:
Emily on body neutrality: “The concept of body neutrality resonated hard. I mean, some days I love my body because it’s strong and pale; some days I hate my body because it’s soft and cellulite-y, but some days I don’t even want to think about it because I’m freaking busy and leave me alone. xo”
Joy on salad upgrades: “My secret for pungent onions is to thinly slice them and dunk ’em in a bowl of ice cold water. It cuts the sharpness. I work at a restaurant, and the chef always makes the best salads for staff meals by just throwing odds and ends into a bowl, tossing it with a good dressing, and seasoning it with lots of salt and pepper.”
