• Some of the roses in the backyard, Brooklyn.

  • Bathroom fixtures in Jackie Robinson’s old house (currently on the market + very nice, if you have a couple of million to spare; the listing is with Ban at Halstead).

  • Road trip. Somewhere in rural Vermont (or maybe New York).

  • Roses at my Brooklyn house.

    I’ve never previously been able to keep any sort of plant alive. This garden thrives regardless of any effort on my part.

  • I don’t find cooking difficult. I just find it tedious.

    That however is no excuse for, well, anything.

    My irritable but diligent attempts to make coeliac safe pickles, kimchi, and ramen were definitely successful.

  • My first attempt at baking gluten free bread.

    Easier than expected– baking is more like a fun science experiment than a boring household chore. Also: gluten free bread! And it tastes… like bread! I haven’t had bread in months!
