I recently watched The Monkey for free at Chicago's Music Box Theatre — and even stuck around for Perkin's Q&A session. I have to say, it was the best movie-going experience I've ever had.

Staying at the Roxy in NY (formerly the Tribeca Grand) is akin to being on an elegant cruise in Manhattan. It’s my home away from home in the city. Everything is there: from live jazz in the massive atrium lobby with the glass elevator zipping up and down and the divine food and drinks (I recommend the lobster roll and a mescal cocktail) in recessed leather booths shaped like teacups, to the gorgeous red velvet theater below - which offers the best films on screen in Manhattan - curated by the brilliant Illyse Singer. After attending a killer film and fascinating Q&A, retreat to the Django, the speakeasy next door, which stays open til 4AM and is often where the hottest underground music acts play… What else could you ask for?

Such a cliche answer I know but it really helped me get my life together as a constantly disorganised person!

They’re a genre of crosswords that have what are essentially riddles instead of regular clues!
For example: “chopped up melon fruit (5 letters)” would be the clue for “lemon” because a lemon is a “fruit” that consists of the letters in “melon” anagrammed (as indicated by the phrase “chopped up”)
It’s those lightbulb moments that make it so fun!
