I walked into the bookstore for one single, very specific book, and somehow my hand reached out and grabbed this gem on the way to the register. I’m so glad I saw it there! I will seriously read any book @thegooddeath writes. Already excited for question 2, “What would happen to an astronaut body in space?” And lucky 13, “Why don’t animals dig up all the graves?” Can’t wait to find out! . . . #orderofthegooddeath #thegooddeath #caitlindoughty #willmycateatmyeyeballs #bookstagram #deathshelf #signedcopy #northshirebookstore #shoplocal

The Michael Sherrill retrospective at @renwickgallery is killer. I loved it so much I barely had my phone out and didn’t take enough pics. But this oversized teapot definitely makes me smile. #renwickgallery #michaelsherrill #michaelsherrillretrospective #contemporaryart #contemporarycraft #ceramic #curatorlife #kammteapotfoundation

Saw a few excellent Marisols in DC last weekend. This one from 1957 on view at @womeninthearts. #latergram #contemporaryart #contemporarysculpture #marisol #5womenartists

Sabrina Gschwandtner, always looking good. Swipe for full view. “Fibers and Civilization (1959),” 2009. Spotted at @renwickgallery. #filmquilt #contemporaryart #contemporarycraft #smithsonianmuseum #renwickgallery #renwickconnections

See what I’m reading & send me your book recs!
