• “Because tanzanite is a relative newcomer to the world of gems, it doesn’t have the set of fun facts or history of lore that many other stones do… but that just means we can start our own stories without worrying that the people of the Middle Ages have already claimed it as the perfect thing to ward off demons or boils or whatever. Finally, a gem without all that baggage!” People with December birthdays, obtain some blue gems! A fun guide to birthstones. [At Present]

• Speaking of guides: “A Beginner’s Guide to Staying Warm Outside,” by Blair Braverman, for Outside. “Hot air rises, so the longer your coat, the more air you’ll be carrying around with you (and even if it’s loose at the bottom, the warm air won’t ‘fall out’).” My mind is blown!
