Launderette
•••
If my professor asked, I’d say “Austin” by Ellsworth Kelly at the Blanton Museum of Art. But my most fun, delicious and honest answer is the birthday cake ice cream sandwiches at Launderette. I drew and framed a picture of them for my kitchen. Launderette’s whole menu is good, but this dessert is why we go. The 🍪 outsides are raw dough (sans flour and eggs, I assume…though they’re so good I don’t care). An order gets you two tiny sandwiches — each is larger than a piece of sushi, smaller than a Klondike bar. You’ll want 10.

The New Yorker
•••
Somehow, I once had a job where I got to do things like run around backstage at the Oscars. The “famous person” sighting that had me buzzing for days was…New Yorker editor-in-chief David Remnick (at a park, on a run, wearing a sweatshirt illustrated by one of the magazine’s artists). Some people deride The New Yorker as snoozy and snobby. The journalists don’t break news — they aim for definitive narrative accounts. J.D. Salinger wrote The Catcher and the Rye when he was sick of getting their rejection letters! Yet the magazine has introduced me to more writers and artists I love than any other cultural entity. Last year, when the National Portrait Gallery decided to remove Amy Sherald’s “Trans Forming Liberty” from an upcoming exhibition to appease Trump, Sherald cancelled the show and The New Yorker ran the painting as its cover. Every single cover in 101 years has been a drawing, watercolor, comic or other visual created by a working artist. When the latest issue lands in my mailbox, I drop everything.

Many-Splendored Dinner Table
•••
$175 at a Housing Works thrift shop. Polka dots, dozens of legs, well worth the schlep to our fourth-floor walk-up!

Abbeyglen Castle
•••
The best travel-related decision of my life was staying at this 🏰 in Clifden. Why did I book just one night?! I dream about the gorgeous grounds and intricately-carved four-poster beds (plus the affordable rate). We visited in December, when a gingerbread replica of the castle was on display. Take a bog water Jacuzzi for me!
