Liquid Sunshine: Preserved Lemon Crush
This Preserved Lemon Crush from Rhea is what they call “sunshine in a bottle”— a radiant concentrate adds brightness to any dish. Rhea Goods preserves lemons, chili, and spices in kosher salt until the rind becomes tender and the sour flesh has mellowed into pure gold. We love to add a spoonful to salad dressings or marinades. Serve with carrots, a side of creamy yogurt, and a dusting of cumin.

Quick Dry Organic Towels
The Moku Organic Towel from Japan unites undyed cotton yarn with soft gauze, gently tinted using raw plant matter sourced from local farms and cafes. The result is a towel elegantly light in both weight and color— and an easy addition to any home textile assortment.

Douglas Fir & Ancient Vetiver Candle
Flamingo Estate’s Douglas Fir & Ancient Vetiver candle features notes of Vetiver, Douglas Fir, Angelica Root, and a hint of Basil. Lighting it is like conjuring the forest wind. As the wax warms, the Essential Oils begin to travel, and forest air fills the room with crisp, smokey, and sweet scents.

A Field Guide to Getting Lost
Written as a series of autobiographical essays, A Field Guide to Getting Lost draws on emblematic moments and relationships in Rebecca Solnit's life to explore issues of uncertainty, trust, loss, memory, desire, and place. Solnit is interested in the stories we use to navigate our way through the world, and the places we traverse, from wilderness to cities, in finding ourselves, or losing ourselves.
