## Resource

Liz and Sarah have turned in another draft of their pilot to Netflix, which means once again they’re in a suspended “Schroedinger’s Cat” state. For now, they’re going to assume the cat is alive and well! In Take A Hike, they discuss their new favorite aphorism — Don’t water dead roses. It reminds them to put their energy where it can actually make a difference. They also answer a fun Mailroom question about their favorite duos. Liz’s is Laverne and Shirley. Sarah’s is cheese and crackers because of her dogs Cheesy Feet and Crackers. This week’s Hollywood Hack smells delightful — the Veuve Cliquot candle. Finally, Sarah recommends the app DramaBox.
