Something to make
DIY up-cycled vase!
This method of taking old vases and giving them a fresh start is called “trash to terracotta.” (if you search #trashtoterracotta on instagram you’ll see lots of other diy-ers have used this tutorial) You mix baking powder with wall paint to get a thick mousse-like texture, and after a few coats and a little bit of drying time, you’ve got brand new home decor! Check out the full tutorial here and let us know if you try it!

Sometimes a crockpot full of queso and a movie in is just what the doctor ordered! This low-key cheesy recipe is the perfect late-night snack for a relaxing night on the couch. (You can also simplify it and save a little time and effort by forgoing the ground hamburger.)
Something to watch

Season two of The Umbrella Academy just hit Netflix and let me tell you; it is awesome. I get that not everyone is into "superhero" shows and movies, but I feel compelled to make a case for why The Umbrella Academy might steal your heart even if you're not a comic book fan. Yes, it has cooky characters, a talking animal, people with special powers, time travel, and an impending apocalypse, but it also has heart, humor, and a cast that will make you feel so invested in their interpersonal lives that none of the earlier things seem even remotely silly. This show turns a long-term relationship between a man trapped in a 13-year-old's body and a thrift store mannequin into a heartbreaking look at loss and humankind's deep need for connection. I won't spoil anything for you, but you'll be entertained, you'll be moved, and you'll be hitting the "watch next episode" button as soon as the credits begin to roll.
