It’s A Thing 3.13.20
FROM: STELLA
TO: LAURA
- It’s been a lot harder to find time for Laura and I to spend together and even more rare that we get together with the babies in tow!
- We are having a very rainy few days in LA this week. I loved this delicious Sausage Potato Kale soup recipe, it was perfect for a cold evening at home.
- I love my new pair of slippers, they are so cozy and perfect for rainy weather + maternity leave.
- I got a lot out of this great article from the Millionaire Educator about how to maximize your tax-advantaged accounts to pay as little as possible in taxes each year. I learned so much from his analysis and am excited to implement his strategies.
- I love the new (washable!) bags from Rothy’s. Hoping to maximize the referral program to get one for a discounted rate 🙂

TO: STELLA
- Very impressed by this designer’s project aimed at helping homeless people by providing upcycled coats made from tent fabric that also stands in as a backpack, sleeping bag, and travel stool.
- My husband and I recently decided to cancel our upcoming trip to Europe because of the Coronavirus situation here and abroad. It was not an easy decision, but I feel better about keeping my family in one, known location, than braving the unknown. I appreciated this article from TFD on ‘An Easy Checklist For Deciding If You Should Cancel Your Plans Because of Coronavirus.’
- Bookmarked this recipe for black bean and plantain polenta snacks. Baby Ernie is exploring more and more foods lately and I think this will be right up his alley.
- We have a “post about childcare” on our list of 30 blog posts we want to write in 2020, and I was glad to see we’re not the only ones who want to be talking about that more. Mrs. Frugalwoods gave a great rundown on options, limitations, and implications in her post on the complicated, expensive, controversial, and expensive thing that is childcare.
- Based on this excerpt from Marisa Meltzer’s “This Is Big,” I cannot wait to read the rest of the book!
