TinCo WetVac — If you don’t own this, take this as your sign to pull the trigger. Mopping the floor is a breeze with this new toy! Emptying the container is disgusting, but so satisfying.
R+Co Pomade Stick — Tired of flyaways? Here is your solution. Don’t know how to get a Sofia Richie bun, use this stuff. It’s so compact, I just toss in my purse for “emergencies”.
Target Sandals (on sale right now) — Last month my sister sent me a picture of her target haul, she demanded I buy these sandals, so I did and I’ve never been so grateful.
Devouring:
Lentils and Onions (Lebanese Mujadara) — Not sure why this hits the spot, but it does. Caramelized onions & lentils were introduced to me by my Lebanese friends and while I can’t make the dish half as good as their mom’s, I try my best.
Green Crunchy Salad — No joke, I could eat this every day. What a perfect combination—light, crunchy, and refreshing. The dill dressing takes it to another level.
Chicken Cutlet Sandwich with Fresh Burrata, Marinara & Pesto (recipe coming soon)
On the screen:
Last week we decided to watch Euphoria. Holy shit. What an intense show. 90% of the time I was watching through the crack in my hands with one squinty eye. It was a great (& somewhat terrifying), but Zendaya did an incredible job. I’m happy that we finished both seasons because binge watching that show isn’t for the faint of heart.
John Mulaney x David Letterman. This was the perfect, post Euphoria. The two of them together are hilarious.
Migration. My nieces have been begging me to watch Migration so I did and I loved it. I clearly needed to continue with something light to cleanse the palette after Euphoria.
NYC Highlights:
The Union Square farmers market is back in full swing. Flowers, herbs, veggies galore.
Café D'avignon in the Essex Market has the best bread (get the seeded sourdough if you go). Via Carota serves it with olive oil & if it’s good enough for Via Carota it’s good enough for me.
I tried the cookie from Le Mercier a few weeks ago and I am now determined to get my hands on the recipe. Might be the best cookie in the city.
Radio Bakery (also, has an incredible cookie) is our go to for a sandwich in Greenpoint. The tuna salad sando doesn’t disappoint … & I don’t even like tuna salad.
We tried Leon’s bagels in Williamsburg and despite the extremely ridiculous line they were (actually) amazing.
On our list to try this Spring: Mark’s off Madison, Esse Taco, Lafayette Pistachio Croissant.
