Taverns & Travelers by Paton Yoder
A folksy light read on the genesis of Midwestern taverns and the part they played in germinating the region's "gregarious sociality".
Using a rolling briefcase as a skate bag
I’ve seen the triangular totes and the Zuca bags and I raise you a less-expensive and more utilitarian option; the rolling briefcase. Has space for my skates, guards, tights, and tailbone pad.
Burt’s Bees Lemon Butter Cuticle Cream
I grow my natural nails long and strong without hangnails by keeping this in my bag and putting some on whenever my fingertips feel dry. This started as a gift from my dad when I was a teenager to get me to stop biting my nails. It definitely worked, and now multiple friends have shown me they bought this because I recommended it! Natural nails are my preferred look and this keeps them looking pretty and healthy :) They’re so strong they rarely chip even when lifting weights!
80 denier Mondor tights
The most comfortable tights! I love how opaque they are and never have to worry about runs or tears. Can chuck them in the washer/dryer hundreds of times without pilling or stretching.
