Natural Rock Spring Water Ice Cubes are a bag of ice cubes like any bag of ice cubes. But I really like the idea of drinking ice cubes from Maine. And I like that the packaging says “cocktail style ice cubes.” Here’s their copy: “The spring water used in making this ice is protected by acres of Maine conservation land and evergreen forests. The natural mineral content in our premium spring water produces a harder clearer ice with no sodium and no aftertaste. When you use natural rocks ice to chill your favorite beverage, you taste the drink, not the ice. The original spring water ice, since 1990.” These are summer ice cubes to me, best paired with Creme de Cassis and seltzer and, like, a porch. Wear Asia Luna bug spray. I’m not sure it works, but it smells nice.

I thought Labi Saffre was a woman, he’s not. Nice quality in a singer. Anyway, these are two of the best love songs ever written. I first heard You’re Lovely on repeat on mushrooms. It’s :32 seconds. I recommend the experience.

Henry makes a lot of low key insufferable navel-gazey films that I really enjoy. Last Summer in the Hamptons (1995) is his best. A matriarch presides over her family, who are all somehow involved in the theatre. It makes you wish you grew up with intellectuals in a house by the sea. Eating: A Very Serious Comedy about Women and Food is so annoying, it’s just women saying they’re fat at a party in Los Angeles, but my friend and his wife have the poster in their dining room, and it’s a great poster, I recommend getting it. He’s alive, Henry is, my translator friend knows him, she’s his muse, though she’s turned the camera back on him, her documentary on him needs a place to screen, if you’re a gallerist, get in touch. Support living artists!

A book critic friend of mine’s husband’s parents live in Boulder, and they have all these great intellectual boomer friends who make art but don’t have to make money. Or so it seems. I may be wrong... Anyway, one of them is Barbara Shark. This is like Home Cooking by Laurie Colwin, but no one has ever heard of it. I think it’s out of print because it wasn’t ever really in print. I don’t even cook, for the record.
