Well, well, it’s been a long time since I’ve made one of these lists.

That’s not to say that I haven’t been swooning over anything, I just haven’t been documenting it here.

So without further ado, here’s a quick list of what’s been making me weak at the knees.

Old episodes of Jacques Pepin & Julia Child’s Cooking At Home Show on public access television. Okay, okay. Laugh all you want but I watched it one night after a long day and really enjoyed watching the cooking antics of these old kooks. They hardly agreed on anything but it was kind of cute and charming. Julia with her distinctive, warbly voice and Jacques with his thick French accent, sometimes I didn’t know what the hell they were talking about but it was fun nevertheless.

RuPaul’s Drag Race Season 2. Good Lord, drama, drag queens, lipsynching, it’s a television extravaganza. I’m hooked. Fierce, fierce and then some more fierceness. “The time has come for you to lipsynch for your life.” - is one of my new catchphrases.

Hey guys,
we’re back!!! well, kinda sorta. i know that i said that we would back ummm, two weeks ago on the 9th but you cannot even begin to believe the technical difficulties that we have been through. Anyway, I don’t even want to get into it.

The point is that we are here with the 1st installment or rather the pilot episode of what will be many more to come. Enjoy!

Hey lovelies,

Things have been a little slow this week mostly due to the fact that I was shacked up on my sofa coughing my lungs out of my body.

Yea, it sounds as bad as it felt.

On the way to feeling better, so here’s a little inspiration.

There are 3 Bobs that I love in this world.

Bob Marley, Bob Dylan and the Bill Murray movie, What about Bob?

Today is Bob Marley’s birthday. He would have been 64.

This image from the lovely Garance Dore. This is how I want to dress everyday.  The pop of yellow in that heel is so genius!

I am officially obsessed with the British series, Skins! I know, I know, I’m a little late to the party but the point is that I showed up. I admit that I have a guilty pleasure when I watch Gossip Girl but Skins is on a whole ‘nother level.

I started watching it 2 weeks ago and finally used the excuse of feeling under the weather to lay back and finish off the first two seasons.

luv. it. lots.

This saying:

THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF PEOPLE: THOSE WHO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN, THOSE WHO WATCH THINGS HAPPEN AND THOSE WHO SAY “WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?”

Regardless of what is going on in your life, try to remember:

We always have the ability to change the way we think and perceive the world which can affect our surroundings!

Finally, this video which brings a smile to my face every time I watch it.
