A store in Greenpoint that feels like a Nora Ephron column. It sells “dinner and party essentials,” which means: caviar, tinned fish, various prosciuttos and cheeses, kooky drinkware, these gluten free crackers I love that don’t taste gluten free. Also: Big Night is the title of a very good Stanley Tucci movie.

This is one of NY’s best kept secrets and I’m a little hesitant to publicly reveal it, but it is a real gem. My friends and I have been really invested in canned fish as of recently and this is the best place to buy quality caviar at a discounted price. It’s deep in Brooklyn on Ave X near Sheepshead Bay, but well worth the trip. If you make it out there, be sure to stop off at Lucia Pizza a block away and get the clam pie on Fridays.

Super delicious raw vegan chocolate, my fave chili oil in Bed Stuy, to forever and only drinking wine out of Bar Part time glasses, Kat Chan’s gorgeous Immortal Mushroom book, and Monte Rosa’s amazing hand-painted gingham workwear sets.

Something I think about a lot is a W Magazine interview where Annette Bening lists her favorite emojis: “I’ve been using that loudspeaker one. It means I’m making noise about something.” It means I’m making noise about something! That sentence is magic. My favorite emoji is the one that’s the silhouette of a person running their mouth — it means I’m gossiping, hollering, giving instructions or delivering a demand. In short: it means I’m making noise about something.

Getting shit framed is, by a wide margin, the most adult thing I do. It’s luxurious! I started framing magazines I’d written cover stories for — silly, stupidly celebratory — and now I frame movie posters and stills. (I’m addicted to Posteritati.) Framing is more than an errand, it’s a ritual. It’s a way of saying: “I love this $100 and a custom cut piece of glass-worth.” I go to Framebridge because it’s closest to my apartment.

I’m recovering from a weird phase when it seemed like every pizza I ate was, in some way, uninspired. But this pizza and carbonara hybrid is the most important union in my life. (The pinsa amatriciana is good too.) Bar Camillo is lowkey, and has a backyard that’s tolerable in the cold and divine in summer.
