3/14/19 Newsletter: The Filthiest Thing You Own

Say hello to the best part of your day and sign up for our daily newsletter!

Your purse is dirtier than the average toilet seat. According to a study conducted in the United Kingdom, most women place their purses on the floor (like, public bathroom floors) when no hanging hooks are available. So say hello to fecal bacteria! And the inside of your bag isn’t much better, thanks to used tissues, dirty cash and pocket change, and well-handled receipts. So clean out your bag’s clutter on the regular and wipe down everything, including that bottle of hand cream. Yep, it’s super dirty, too. [Swirled]

We can openly review our fave restaurants online, so why not review our workplaces and colleagues, too? That’s the thought behind Completed, a new review site that allows you to review and rate your company, your boss and your coworkers. Completed also goes one step further than LinkedIn and Glassdoor by letting you discuss the good, the bad and the lazy — the latter being the kind of colleagues that can bring down the team and company culture.

It’s time to step up your whiskey game beyond a Jack and ginger ale. High West Whiskey’s Campfire blend is a mix of scotch, bourbon and rye, giving the drink a hint of honey and smokiness. And George Dickel #12 is filtered with charcoal and offers a smooth finish with subtle hints of vanilla and maple — it’s great for mixing or sipping on the rocks. Check out our other happy hour faves. [Swirled]

Recipe Of The Day: It’s Pi(e) Day — yay! — and a surprisingly simple pie recipe is the only way to celebrate. Try a Banoffee pie, which begins with a graham cracker crust and is then topped with a layer of luxurious dulce de leche, banana slices and pillowy mounds of whipped cream. Seriously, it’s the sweetest way to enjoy the day. [Sally’s Baking Addiction]
