A friend turned me on to this Greek painter and I love her. I feel like there’s always movement in her work, even when the women seem to just be sitting. I constantly want to pull a Mary Poppins and enter her worlds.

I’m partial as one of her muses but her work resonates with me.

Art is about more than identity, can allow us to transcend identity, but having been raised in the art world of the 90s, when painting was dying and women weren’t given the wall space they deserved, it’s a joy to watch femme painters rise to the top of the pile creatively and financially. I am lucky enough to cherish works by Jenna Gribbon, Jocelyn Hobbie, Kyle Staver, Ellen Birkinblit and my dear friend Issy Wood. I am currently obsessed with Larissa De Jesus Negron, Petra Cortright, Lucy Bull, Robin F. Williams, Somaya Critchlow, Gina Beavers and Cynthia Talmadge. It’s a lifetime dream to have a massive Lisa Yuskavage to wake up to (though I do have a print she gave me for my 26th birthday when I had a Soul Cycle party and everyone was mad except Lisa, who kicked all our millenial asses on the bike.)

I don’t understand why we refrigerate eggs. The internet says it’s because they last longer. But if you’re 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). I’m not sure if it would still be 6 minutes if the egg was coming from the fridge.
Keeping butter out in a tray is better than keeping it all cold in the fridge. It’s easier to spread on toast and is generally nicer to look at.
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.

Audre Lorde’s 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. It’s like rediscovering the book through someone else’s eyes.

It really works. Yes, your room will smell like onion. But you’ll 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)
