It took a realllllllly long time for me to get on board with magnesium. I thought it was overrated. (Generally I donāt understand supplements. Iām more of a eat-the-foods-that have-the-vitamins-and-minerals-you-need type of girl.) But this magnesium is IT. First of all, you mix it with water and it fizzes which is really satisfying. Secondly, it tastes great. Like bitter, slightly stale seltzer? In a good way, I promise. Some people like to add tart cherry juice to the mixture because apparently tart cherry juice is a good source of melatonin? But not me. I like it AU NATUREL.Ā

Good news and bad news. Bad news is that Iām not good at restful sleep, but the good news is I have a very active dream life. Iāve always experienced a lot of deja vu and stuff, but the last several years have gotten weird. More and more of it has been coming back to this side of consciousness with me, and Iām becoming more capable of navigating my dreamsā¦ Anyway. Itās hard to get to sleep and harder to stay asleep. This powder is effervescent in cold or warm water, and the specific fizzy tartness triggers that pavlovian āwinding down for bedtimeā yawn in our home.. Magnesium tenderly tells my nervous system to be cool and let me rest, so for the first half of the night Iām resting sound asleep and when I wake up, it is not with my heart racing with anxiety, which allows me to slip back under into a dream state where Iām shaping the architecture and my autonomy from first person. I have this Oura ring which tracks my sleepā my heart rate, temperature, how many times I wake up, how much time Iām spending in REM versus deep sleepā and Iām obsessed with that. Wait make this about Oura not Magnesium. Wait make it about sleep in general. donāt make it about dreams you aināt ready to know about that. But yeah Iāve been putting magnesium in my water.

I know sleepy girl magnesium cocktails are all the rage but I need something quick. These work like a charm even with my bad sleep hygiene (scrolling right before bed)

I donāt understand why we refrigerate eggs. The internet says itās because they last longer. But if youāre a big egg eater like me, you are definitely going to eat your eggs before they go bad. I like the way cracking a room temperature egg feels more than a fridge one. Also I believe that boiling an egg for 6 minutes is the perfect about of time (water is already boiling when you put egg in). Iām not sure if it would still be 6 minutes if the egg was coming from the fridge.Ā
Keeping butter out in a tray is better than keeping it all cold in the fridge. Itās easier to spread on toast and is generally nicer to look at.Ā
Water should always be room temperature. Not cold. It hurts my teeth and makes my insides chilly just thinking about cold water. And no ice. Ever.Ā

Audre Lordeās autobiography (actually, she labels it a biomythography) has been my favorite read of the year so far. My best friend, Zoe, recommended it to me on vacation this summer. It is mesmerizing to read about Audre, who is wise beyond her years, coming of age in New York City during the 1930s and 40s.I also highly recommend reading the same books as your friends and exchanging after. Itās like rediscovering the book through someone elseās eyes.Ā

It really works. Yes, your room will smell like onion. But youāll hopefully stave off that cold. (Best to use a new onion every night or reslice the original onion. Basically you want there to be onion juice evaporating into the air)
