very simple

This refrigerator magnet combines the features of being both enormous and too weak to actually hold anything.

for times when my kiehl’s lip balm just isn’t fancy enough for my purse.

a mainstay of every kosher delicatessen I have ever eaten it. By the way, I hate pickles.

As a single girl living alone, I somehow found it necessary to own three martini shakers.

I’m catching up with uploading 365 project pictures for the last couple of days. They were all taken on the correct day, I just got distracted and a bit lazy about uploading them to the website.

another refrigerator magnet. bought during a visit to UPenn law school when I was deciding whether to go there, at the restaurant across the street, creatively named…the black cat.

I have this weird compulsion whenever I go into museum stores that I need to buy the quirkiest thing I can find. Which is why I ended up buying this (among other things) at the Tate Modern gift shop back in 2001.
