This post is exactly what I need right now. Thanks to Amy’s comment and Joslyn’s series for giving me the idea.
1. Tom Colicchio – I don’t know what it is, but I have had several impure thoughts about this man. Very much looking forward to the Top Chef premiere tonight.
2. Retro hairstyles – I’ve always had a soft spot for 40’s and 50’s hairstyles, and I’ve recently become obsessed with YouTube how-to videos. This gal is awesome, and I just now realized that a very brief segment of her video was shown on my Nightline segment.
3. NARS Dolce Vita lipstick with Chanel Glossimer in Pagoda on top – Shiny, pinky-rose perfection.
4. Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate – I’ve only had one of these, but it damn sure changed my life.
5. Ashley G’s Beard illustrations – I want to create a room where one wall is covered entirely in these beard illustrations. I dig a man with a good beard.
6. J Brand black cigarette jeans – My #1 clothing staple this fall.
7. Twilight movie – I’m not embarrassed to admit that my tickets have already been purchased. (Picture it now…Whoorl and 120,000 14-year-olds.)
8. Hayden Harnett bag – My new birthday gift. I’m not going to lie, I don’t know if it will fully take the place of my Gray Havana Hobo, but it is a nice change.
9. Super Hopeless Romance – Although fiction, this blog has sucked me into Cordy’s vortex. GET IT TOGETHER, SETH.
10. Relish Meal Planning System – This is beyond incredibly awesome. I love to cook, but have trouble planning my weekly menus ahead of time. This system lets me choose my weekly dinners, creates a grocery list (down to specific aisles) and takes all guesswork out of the planning process. The yummy recipes are just the icing on the cake. (This week’s menu includes dishes such as Buttermilk Unfried Chicken, Huevos Rancheros, Porcini Mushroom and Walnut Penne…)
11. Backyardigans Super Spy episode featuring Cyndi Lauper – Wito is obsessed with the Backyardigans. I am obsessed with the episodes that feature my favorite 80’s musicians.
12. This video of Andrew Bird – Sorry Tom, Andrew is still my main man.
13. The Blue-Green crayon – Best color ever.
Your turn. Who/what are your current crushes?

I am not a foodie so much as a baseball chick…

November 12, 2008 at 4:46 pmI just spent the last TWO HOURS reading My Super Hopeless Romance, since I have nothing better to do, and now I am going to swoon onto the couch, dreaming about Seth and Chris, and silently cursing you for sharing it with me before the story is over and Cordy is living happily ever after.
Oh, and this might be my de-lurk, so I love you.

2) Department of Eagles. Especially ‘No One Does It Like You’
3) Scarves! Particularly the cheap ones from Forever21.

November 13, 2008 at 10:09 amHoly crap, I HAVE ARRIVED.
You are awesome, thank you.
PS: I have a total crush on Chef Tom too. It’s the eyes and the cheerful smarts, I think.
