This picture melts my very own eyeballs!

Virginia and Mike by the lake in Retirement Villageville, NJ, on Thanksgiving Day.

That's me in the corner...

That's me, totally saving the shit out of this dummy's life.

NEW LOVE

Essie's Alligator Purse (Fall 2007)

Burnt orange. The perfect antidote to all those depressing and played out dark, 'Vamp'-esque burgundies and browns.

Hey Dov Charney!

Look how YOUNG she is!

Look! I'm a magazine!

Here are some random things I like! Turn my pages and then recycle me!

1. SERGE LUTENS.


These two mixed together especially.
Miel de Bois Notes: Ebony, gaiac, oak wood, honey, beeswax, iris, hawthorn
Un Lys Notes: Lily, musk, vanilla
Both created by Christopher Sheldrake.

Believe.

2. STATIONERY FROM KATE'S PAPERIE

Kate's Primavera Sheets & Envelopes in Lilac


Faux Lizard Lined Cards, Sky Blue

3. GRAHAM CRACKERS

Specifically the thick, slightly chewy ones from Fresh Direct.

4. MARIMEKKO SHIT





5. MUSTELA
For Virginia, for me - whoever - this stuff rules.

I own every single one of these products.

6. 'En Passant' by FREDERIC MALLE

Two perfume things on the same list? Yes. I wear this one everyday! You can get it at Barney's though it's not on their website?

7. FLANNEL SHEETS.
The ultimate in coziness.

8. ALMOND FLAVORED/SCENTED THINGS.
Amaretto. Marzipan. Pignoli cookies. Macarons. Kiehl's hand lotion. All fantastic.


9. CUISINART COOKWARE

You can buy way more expensive pots and pans- but you don't need to, dawg! These are terrific.

10. ROCCO's on BLEECKER STREET

Now available to order online. Holy. Crap. Now I don't have to live in New York forever!

Carb Coma

You're killin' me, girl!

Nuggie's first Halloween- major success

Really?

I got a call from this place 20/20 Financial Consulting today, which I thought was possibly bullshit so I went to their website to see.


Do people like NOT KNOW what crosshairs are? They are the things you see inside the scope of a shotgun that you use to align that shotgun to better blast someone's face off or bag a deer or fuck up a mailbox.

You'll see that in this instance, the crosshairs are neatly positioned over this happy blonde woman's eyeball, as if to say, "It's TAX TIME, MOTHERFUCKER!!!"

Huh?

Never Gets Old

Sometimes (all the time) when I see milk in the fridge, I'll start singing The Who's 'Anyway Anyhow Anywhere' but change the lyrics to "Nothin gets in my way, not even lactose..." which, come on, is what I thought they were saying anyway.

Then I chuckle. Still!
