burlesque was really an outstanding period for christina, i reflect as i sit here watching it on abcfamily.

do you think it upsets britney to no end when she watches it, considering crossroads, and all?

i would like to report that i made this recipe, found on pinterest, and lord have mercy, it actually worked.

it was good.  delicious even.


rowdy wanted it.

i'm sure you knew that nate berkus is with jeremiah from rachel zoe?  i read this article, back in the summer, i really did, (i even remember emailing nick and saying 'i don't enjoy the kitchen') but somehow did not process the other person in the photo.  how can that be?

this is really an attractive situation.  in coordinating denim.... how about that?


this has me really thinking about what needs to be painted coral.  something, surely.


it's dark, it's cold outside, there is nothing better to do, so i'm planking.  this way:

i hear the trick is to keep your heels back.


these are on sale, and great looking, so i stocked up - because there will always be a situation to present itself that calls for black and pink embroidered floral pillows.  always.

i'm working on a gift guide, because i'm blogger, and i took a vow long ago to curate things on the internet to the best of my ability and present them to you in an appealing .jpg created in illustrator.
hang tight.

if you're in raleigh, did you know the following?:
-we are getting a dry bar on oberlin
-anthropologie will open at north hills in the spring of next year
-it's game (as in hunted animal, which is preferable to mass farming, in my opinion) week at capital club 16 - through tomorrow.  we went.  brian meares thought it was good.  i ate chocolate cake.  (very good)
-our holiday open house (furbish's) is next saturday and we're giving away highly desirable chairs, $25 gift cards for every $100 you spend, average tasting champagne, smaller than medium-sized cupcakes, christmas cheer and whatever else i can come up with in a week.

that's all i know.

merry weekend!
