Been experimenting shooting in Apple Log, had to have some fun and test it out on some top tier tacos @tacoselgordo_ 🌮 Stretching some new creative muscles! Lemme know what yall think 🤔

Truly embracing the winter this year in celebration of another trip around the sun. As I get older, I realize the value of stillness and reflection. Large celebrations are always appreciated, but there’s something particularly inspiring about the quiet moments.

You don’t wanna spend money on eating out, I promise u Here’s (most of) what I prepped for our extra long Catskills weekend ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ - tofu scramble - iced espresso latte - stewed apples - @capheroasters inspired congee - braised cabbage - mapo tofu (ingredients in the comments) - snacks (pictured: pretzels, blue corn tortilla chips, hummus, baby carrots, dill pickles) - impossible meat with black beans - breakfast quesadillas - tempeh bacon - purple potato rice - tomato tartine on @kingstonbread sourdough I intended to prep blanched spinach but forgot about it. Then, I planned to grab some from the market when we picked up bread and forgot about it again. Needless to say, greens were sorely missed. I’ll definitely be packing a BIG salad next time. Something cold, fresh, and crunchy would’ve been a nice addition to our cozy menu. Of the 5 nights and 4 days we stayed Upstate, we ate out on three occasions: once for dumplings (snack), once for @gniv ’s incredible birthday dinner, and once for pizza. Dumplings were good, dinner was excellent, and pizza was a *hard* pass. Takeaways: I’m sooo happy we brought food with us. The deep winter and personal slow down ahead of the fire horse Lunar New Year called for long, low-stress days indoors—not the job of combing menus for decent vegan options, driving long distances for a single meal, overspending on food we don’t love, or constant cooking. We’ll definitely be food prepping ahead of future trips. Portioning out individual servings would make more sense for two people than bulk portions. It was hard to gauge how much we’d eat throughout the trip and I definitely over packed. But! It was totally worth it to have everything we might want and we’ve got food prepped for our busy week ahead. Lastly, it’s an incredible privilege to travel. I used to dream for days like these and now, on occasion, it’s my reality. Our rental was FAB but not everything has to be extravagant to be a luxury. Having the means, time, space, and peace of mind to prepare this food is an extraordinary luxury within itself. I hope to share more home cooked meals with people I love in 2026. For now, my cup and my belly is FULL! x

I’ll get to the rest of it eventually 🫶🏾

Every day I’m reminded of how dope my friends are. Keeping it in the family with another one from the illustrious @jeffoftheyear . Had the privilege of leading the art direction and design for the film branding and graphics on @fence.film . Just watched it screen at the @canalstreetfilmfestival tonight and watching the work on the big screen never gets old. Shout out to all the extremely talented people that shared their genius tonight.

Here at Ghost Note, we’ve been rethinking what it means to be “creative”. Not just as a common term, but as a responsibility. A shared ethos. We’ve always believed creativity is rooted in lived experience, shaped by perspective, and deeply connected to community. And our Creative team has long reflected both legacy and new energy — and recently, they gathered at @atmamakokos in Baltimore to co-work, moodboard, and most importantly, imagine the future of working together. They even decided it was time for a name change 🫢. What’s clear now more than ever: this team is hungry.
 For freshness. For clarity. For resonance. Allow us to formally introduce @quinntonharris as our Head of Design, @nataliacelinearias as our newest Creative Lead of Design and @gniv as our OG, newly promoted Creative Lead of Design. Hear from them directly as they reflect on what’s ahead in our latest newsletter. 📸 Group photo by @boundhausprose .
