I am a big fan of cookies, theyāve definitely been my go to sweet treat for a hot minute. When Iām able, I love to get the hockey puck shaped cookies from Levain but I donāt live in close enough proximity to any of their locations that that can be a regular endeavor. Uncle Eddieās has been the best packaged cookie that I have found that miraculously tastes homemade and fresh even when I know itās not. Available at Whole Foods. Iām not even vegan!!!

I bake myself a new batch of cookies every weekend or so and this was the best one I've made since the Levain dupes. Highly recommended, although instead of flaxseed I just used an egg since I'm not vegan, just dairy free

Iāve started to meal prep cookie dough in my freezer so I can just bake a cookie or two fresh when I want it. Game changer!
I follow BAās recipe with some changes like, less sugar and butter, and freezing before baking. It doesnāt come out as flat.
Then a lil ice cream on the side, *chefās kiss*
Van Leeuwen ice cream actually tastes special, the pretty packaging isnāt deceiving!

If you were to poll a large swathe of people as to whether cashmere is over or underrated, I really have no clue what the consensus would be; but I think cashmere is underrated. I was not a sweater person for quite a while but have become one and culled a pretty decent collection of knitwear that I like to pull from when I want to dress to impress. Anyway, cotton sweaters are a bit too pedestrian, merino a tad too formal and while I love shetland, it can be a itchy and requires intentional layering. Cashmere balances all of the best elements of the aforementioned knits and feels delightful on the skin. I recommend you pick one up and not from Uniqlo (or insert other high street brand) - I like Ralph, Loro Piana, Malo. How pompous do I sound?

Occasionally folks ask what my favorite thing about living in NYC is and the go-to response Iāve figured out is āthe peopleā. But not talking to them, observing them. One of the beautiful things about NY is that you can really be somebody and simultaneously disappear all within the same day and all within a 1 mile radius. Take some time to just chill and watch the world go round on occasion (leaving your phone in your pocket is integral).

Not sure what this corner store is called but its asian owned in a neighborhood thatās becoming less and less so. This rec is a bit less relevant now as the temperature drops but their made-right-there-on-the-spot-watermelon-chunk-and-ice-slushies are an absolute reprieve on a hot summer day. Other fruits are available but the watermelon is the certified classic and the first I had, Iāve never strayed since. As a further cosign, Porches casually mentions the spot within the first few lines of his recent track āWatergetsinsideā.
