Car popcorn
I do some of my very best thinking on the drive home from the grocery store with an open bag of $5 popcorn in my lap. You can’t avoid the car crumbs, though (makes a thoughtful snack for the car wash vacuum cleaner).
Goo for your yogurt
Yogurt (thick, preferably Greek, Zoi’s if you can find it) is better with goo: jam, sure, but also applesauce, peanut butter, cookie butter (!). But don’t mix the goo; carefully selecting a bite of each component is an important intellectual practice.
Japanese House
Wayland Mill
We are a town of incredible bakeries! This one is also a banger of a breakfast/brunch spot and is heavily influenced by the owner’s Japanese heritage and hits all the notes—comforting, surprising, and of course, delicious. Doesn’t hurt that it’s chic as hell, too. Get any of the sandwiches, the Japanese breakfast, and a slice of the shoyu-peanut butter pie if they have it.
