I also went home with this sweater, which is super-soft and was on sale for just $25. The Gap is having a pretty incredible sale at the moment…I advise going. Quickly, because I suspect that the vultures will descend this coming holiday weekend.

If you’re looking for a charity to donate to this holiday season (or recently cleaned out your closet and want to donate your hand-me-downs to a good cause), consider The Uniform Project. In May 2009, Sheena Matheiken pledged to wear the same dress every day for an entire year both as an exercise in sustainable fashion and as a fundraiser for the Akanksha Foundation, a grassroots movement that funds uniforms and educational supplies for children living in Indian slums. You can donate to the cause itself, or donate accessories (Sheena has 7 identical dresses, but reinvents the look daily with vintage or hand-me-down accoutrements).
Take a moment to check out the site; it’s pretty amazing.
I just placed a delivery order with Sable’s Deli for my absolute favorite thing to eat when I’m sick: matzo ball soup. I wasn’t sure where to find good matzo ball soup on the UES, and while searching around on the internet I came across a link for NYC’s 10 Best Matzo Ball Soups, including “Best Landmark Matzo Ball” (Katz’s Deli) and “Best Soup and Pie Combo” (Bubby’s).
If you’re bed-ridden like me today (or just lazy), here’s a nice little diversion: Ugliesttattoos.com.
