There’s something a little fishy about the contents of Erika Christensen‘s, 32, Kletterwerks backpack. “I always have a can of sardines,” cracks the star of NBC’s Parenthood (Thursdays, 10 P.M.). It’s the tiniest, most efficient, beautiful meal. There’s so much protein.” What else — besides the requisite Orbit gum — is the Seattle native hauling around town?
Safety First
“My bike is my main form of transportation, so I’ve got a red clip-on taillight. Sometimes, my boyfriend [cyclist Cole Maness, 36] and I do evening rides to the movies or grocery store.”
Sharp Idea
“I carry a pocketknife that Cole gave me. He said it’s bad luck to give a knife as a gift and wanted me to buy it for a penny. I bought it with a kiss instead.”

Golden Arches
“I can’t live without my blonde Anastasia eyebrow pencil. I’m completely happy to be seen without my makeup as long as I have my brows filled in.”
