I told Anil I was stealing this idea and now, for you, a new blog feature - Beyond the 140!
home! my short good friday wasn't that short. Now waiting for my sister to come over so we can go see There Will Be Blood at the arclight.
The sisterly time included a lively conversation about what her dream 21st birthday would look like (a trip to Paris with friends from both LA and New York) and what my ideal wedding would look like (taking 20 people - 10 for the bride, 10 for the groom - to the Greek Islands featuring a small outdoor ceremony, a ship, me being named the new king of Santorini and a lot of happy). That said, pretty much any dream party of mine these days involves taking X number of people to Y location (where Y varies from Greece, South Africa, Japan or Hawaii).
This was my favorite article in last month's GOOD. I want the most expensive pizza, like now: http://xrl.us/bh29f
hot dog talk: twitter as food pr0n: flickr - put that on your SAT Verbal Exam.
a hot dog is most perfect with just mustard. You may add cheese, chili, saurkraut and maybe relish (not all at once). at a BBQ, bbq sce, ok
ketchup is *never* okay on a hot dog made for the kid.
-quango.comBerlin got a new show in 2006, Belle et Fou realised by four star chef and event caterer HANS-PETER WODARZ and producer/director ARTHUR CASTRO. Besides dance, theatre and refined culinary delights, this new project from the makers of Pomp, Duck & Circumstance has one very special highlight to offer: the soundtrack is by JAZZANOVA.
This track is of particular interest because it was originally sung by Vikter Duplaix. Clara Hill gives it a completely different vibe. I dig it. The whole soundtrack, however, is stellar. Jazzanova can do very little wrong.
I'm staring at the screen, distracted by the corny profile that 60 Minutes is doing on Facebook (although I'm impressed that after the first half of puff, Leslie Stahl is digging into Beacon a bit), and thinking about what I want to share about my week. That's what these song for sunday posts have become. For some odd reason, I want to talk about how I've been postponing cleaning my bathroom all week and using remember the milk to do so. That's not a good story.
I feel like I should say something about the week I had with my sister - it began with us leaving Vegas, the middle was having Ethiopian at Nyala, the end was dropping her off at the airport for her to return to school today - but I'm not trying to get all sappy up in this piece. Especially when I know she's reading. The highlight, however, was switching iPods with her at McCarran Airport and getting her into Björk. She left town with a CD packed with my favorite tracks from across her entire catalog. Bomb.
I could talk about the Murakami Exhibit (that needs it's own post) or the trip we took to Pink's yesterday (but I might turn that into something for laist) or my initial thoughts on the first two episodes of the final season of The Wire or on all the signs that I'm starting to act like a grown-up that showed themselves this week. I could talk about all those things but I don't feel like it.
It's Sunday, Andy Rooney is being crabby, my feet are up and I'm still not going to clean that damn bathroom.
It's enough.
But so is a serious Nor'easter apparently.
It's just the teaser site, we'll have a full launch in a couple weeks but you can get a feel for the show - the grittiest show abc family has ever run and it features a predominantly black cast.
In another case of "it's a small world, after all" - this is the show my sister very nearly got cast in (as Cassie) the summer before her freshman year at NYU and just about a year before I started producing the site.
The Toney family is nothing if not synergistic.
