Book:
Melissa Gilbert- Prairie Tales. Half Pint isn't a great writer (some sentences make me want to reach for a red pen and start correcting), but she makes up for it with truly interesting stories about Hollywood in the 70s and 80s, sex with Rob Lowe (admit it, you want to know) and being introduced to Groucho Marx.
Song:
David Kitt- Song From Hope St. (Brooklyn, NY). I don't know why this guy isn't much more famous here in States.
Frequently worn outfit/item:
A one button black cashmere sweater/jacket. Goes over everything.
Perfume:
L'Artisan Havana Vanille.
Makeup:
Cream blushes. I'm testing several, mixing and matching.
Food:
Whole wheat bagels with Danish butter. Oh, my thighs...
Drink:
Coach Farm cultured goat milk with strawberries or blueberries.
Guilty Pleasure:
eBay.
Bane of my existence:
Lack of inspiration for tonight's Oscar red carpet blogging. I hope someone does a Bjork.
Joy:
The cats.
Anticipation:
Daffodils.
Wish List:
Guerlain Tonka Imperiale. I'm smitten.
Random Thought:
My first cellphone from 1996 and my current one (a Motorola Droid in a bubblegum pink case) don't even look like the same species.
