Keira Alexandra once told us that her grandfather, Vladimir Ossipov kept a list of things he did for each day of the year in a book where each page was dedicated to one day. For example, on February 4th, he would weigh himself and record it on the same page year after year. We wanted to manufacture yearly rituals in a similar way. So here's onnoodles.
