• A must-read for design enthusiasts: Penelope Green’s NY Times obituary for Min Hogg, the brilliant founding editor of World of Interiors.
• Margot posted a cheery travelog of her visit to Wellfleet, on Cape Cod; see it on Instagram at @dogwalkdiary.
• And on a recent trip to Boston, Margot discovered a must-visit pop-up shop at the Bow Market in Union Square, Somerville, called Abroad Modern, which imports Indian housewares and staples (tiffins, stainless steel baby bottles, copper cups).
• Laundry mavens: Gardenista founding editor Michelle Slatalla’s latest design column in the WSJ involves clothes line etiquette; go to Who Knew a Clothes Line Could Be So Controversial?

• Mark your calendars: On Saturday, July 20, from 9 am to noon, LA shop Nickey Kehoe is putting on a summer warehouse sale. Act fast.
• On Saturday, July 13th from 5 pm to 7pm, Picture Room in Brooklyn Heights presents a talk with a trio of artists, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of the United States’ final commercial Morse code transmission, “What hath god wrought?” For info, go to Picture Room.
• Our friend Asako emailed to say she paid a visit to the new Muji shop at Hudson Yards: “It’s two floors and they have a coffee and matcha stand. Also, they have a new monograming service for towels, sneakers, T-shirts, and tote bags.”
• Lovers of ugly vegetables and fruits (and bargains): check out the Misfits Market, a newish CSA box delivery service (priced accordingly).
