Just grab a few. Preferably thrifted. You would think that you would never use them, until they’re the only dish you reach for. Mother of Junk in Williamsburg has a beautiful collection.

Go into any thrift store and you’ll find hand painted plates that are also portraits and will haunt you to your core. I have a bunch that I use as salad plates for dinner parties. One has a naked woman breastfeeding a child and it is a great conversation starter.

Coupes, cups, martinis, flutes, wine - you can get it all for 25-50¢ a piece. And they're often gorgeous. I love my little collection.

I'm always interested in finding out people's priorities and hierarchies when it comes to eating, drinking, cooking, etc. I am not interested in enduring life without nice flatware, but I will drink out of a cheap IKEA glass no problem. The feeling of lifting a cheap fork or spoon physically bothers me, I like to hold something with some weight. Conversely drinking out of a really expensive, thin glass gives me anxiety, like I could take a bite out of it. It gives me the creeps. I really like vintage pottery barn flatware for the weight, you can ebay/etsy around for them. We just got a pattern called antique rope for our cabin in Montana (I’m not going to do any montana spoilers - you don't do it out of respect for the sanctity and the mindset of the vibe of the state) but the weight of them is insane, like a weapon - it’s fitting. For California we use the Matilda Goad rainbow cutlery set. I love her teaspoons and I eat with those ninety percent of the time, even a big bowl of soup I will eat it with a small teaspoon, I just prefer a smaller bite.

I took a shower at 4pm the other day and it was life changing. I put on a fall jazz playlist (will make a separate rec of that), lit a candle, and didn’t have to turn the light on in the bathroom. At 4pm, your bathroom gets the perfect amount of sunlight. Or at least mine did. Glorious. Peak happiness

It is the best way to eat ice cream. I feel like a tiny fairy. I will make sure I sample ice cream, even if I know what I’m getting, just so I can acquire the teeny tiny spoon. 10/10 experience 🍨
