I do not drink which means I’ve suffered many a cranberry soda. I will order a Shirley Temple from time to time but sometimes you just crave a sophisticated adult beverage. Chinotto is a classy bitter orange Italian soda that doesn’t make me feel like an unaccompanied minor. Think of it as a virgin Campari (a Google search just confirmed chinotto oranges are one of the ingredients in Campari). FYI it’s pronounced KEE-notto which I wish I’d known sooner.

For all the sober-curious and NA cocktail hype swirling these days, not enough credit is given to the original, perfect, sweet refresher that is the Shirley Temple. The cherry syrup gives just enough bitterness to cut the sweet Sprite (always Sprite, never ginger ale sry). Better than any imitation cocktail on the market. +1 if you’re using amerena cherries.

i don't drink and i honestly do not care for $16 phony negronis and ghias. what i really want is a shirley temple. it's sugary so it keeps me going, it's cheap, and it's bright fucking red. real adults are drinking shirley temples (or seltzer with bitters are good too)

Whenever possible, I try to conduct my business in diners. The ideal backdrop for meetings, dates, fights, parent visits, co-working, break ups, meeting internet friends IRL, dining alone, disassociating after therapy, crying in public. Truly a one-size-fits-all venue

They don’t want you to know that kids are a better hang than most adults. I was a nanny when I first moved to NYC and still dabble between freelance paychecks. Kids are hilarious, earnest and tell it to you straight. I’m blessed to have many kid cousins in my life. The other day I walked around the city with my teen cousin splitting wire headphones and listening to Gucci Mane. We stopped for treats twice. Perfect afternoon.

Study Bunny is a productivity app for people with severe ADHD who were addicted to Neopets. It’s simply a timer that depicts a bunny studying in a tidy bedroom. If you complete your timed study session you’re rewarded with bunny coins and health points. You can then shop the Study Bunny store with your windfall and buy your hardworking bunny essential items like a cowboy hat or a bathrobe. It is what it is that I cannot accomplish mundane tasks without an anthropomorphic bunny motivating me, but I’ve never been so productive. I’m gonna take her on a shopping spree during tax season.
