Rotting On The Vine
Part esoteric homesteading guide, part travel guide for the truly lost, part decaying Angelino mom's endless search for the best crap out there. A segment to lead us all on the path of discovery. I am merely a conduit. This is not a trend report.

DISCLAIMER: I should come out in saying that one of the main reasons Rotting on the Vine is here is for the affiliate links, which are really getting a bad rap these days. This letter has become a way for me to monetize my curiosity in the face of the giant financial wave that is raising two small children and one small business in 2026.

Happy New York Fashion Week to those who celebrate. Thank god Joy and I left Malibu to put a delay on our personal lobster fest. We’ve been having a little too much fun in the sun, his freckles are melding together and my lizarding practice has rapidly accelerated. I’m not laying out in any sort of fancy way, just spending hours applying sunscreen to my children and forgetting to apply it to myself.so many things to happening this week.
