Brain Pickings, Food For Your Brain







Are you familiar with the Brain Pickings website?

In their words, "Brain Pickings is a free but, some have said, priceless weekly interestingness digest. It comes out on Sundays and offers the week’s best articles across art, science, design, history, and the usual miscellanea, alongside short highlights from other notable reads."

I receive the newsletter and look forward to reading it each week. With topics such as "How to Read Poetry", "John Steinbeck on Falling in Love", "Joan Didion on Keeping a Notebook","5 1/2 Favorite Food Books","On Pure Design and What Beauty Really Means", I feel like I am receiving a crash course in creativity, critical thought, new and old ideas, life and just all around "interestingness" each time I read it. And who doesn't need more of that in their lives? Check it out.
