63 People Shared Their Favorite Poems

And some excellent soup recipes

By Grier

Hi everyone,

We’re in a garden right now in North Carolina thinking about the future of Rec League.

These are poems you can’t ever let go of and keep returning to throughout your lives.

E.E. Cumings and a great craft idea you’ll read about below.

This is how you attend a Sotheby’s auction, in case you were wondering.

This person has been married for just three months but this relationship habit seems to already be working wonders.

Have seen a lot of hacks for using your phone less but this one takes the cake.

How to push through a 2pm slump without coffee.

It’s full-fledged soup season on Rec League. Here are 62 of your Hall of Fame Soup recs, including the best soup you’ll ever have. For dipping, make your own “5m” baguettes.

Congratulations to Shin Ko for winning REC OF THE WEEK for this very useful tool for doing normal tasks like resizing images and calculating mulch. Hang your glorious ROTW ribbon with pride. Your rec was voted on by thousands of people all across the country!

Who will it be this week?

Don’t forget to save all these great recs to ROOMs so you can keep them nice and organized and return to them later. Rooms are like foldered saves but you can invite other ppl to them if you want to.

Have a great rest of your week.
