Friday Five

 1. I spent last weekend in NYC. Above is the veiw from our room at The Standard in the East Village. Highlights included (but are no limited to) Brooklyn Flea, lunch at Balthazar and little dog named Murray I met waiting for the L train. I'm already making plans to be back on my own later this summer... hopefully for a few weeks.

2. We have developed a girl-crush on Lena Dunham.

3. The final version of the wool totes are nearly ready for release. Some photo-editing and a bit of copy-writing left to do. You've been patient. I appreciate it.

4. My playlist this week mostly revolved around my trip. This song has been on repeat:

 

5. Also, the Met has the best ceilings:

1. If my job were adding to this blog, I'd be fired.

2. This month, Polica has been on heavy rotation here in the studio. Listen to them here. (also, they're from Minneapolis which makes me happy).

3. A belated 'Thank you!' to everyone who came out to SNOWgrade in February. I was so happy to have faces to put to names and to meet some new friends. Special 'hello' to the dudes at Ball & Buck who were my neighbors for the day.

4. My new assistant has reached her 6 month mark and so she's officially no longer new. Her name is Gail. She packs up all your orders and ships them out with care. She also provides more than adequate amounts of entertainment a few days a week.

5. Gertrude says hello.
