First class sleeping

Posted on November 29, 2010 by

Even though I’m not going anywhere too far, I’m addicted to airbnb.com. If you’re looking for privately run or exotic accommodations, or just a floor to sleep on, this is the place (check out all the houseboats). We used the … Continue reading →

Courney Love knows nose

Posted on November 28, 2010 by

Kudos to MuchMusic for giving us non-CFL fans something to cheer about: the long-awaited, two-hour Behind the Music with Courtney Love. There are plenty of gems here (e.g. Trent Reznor’s not-so nine-inch nail), but the best line so far: “I … Continue reading →

Word of the day: ladygloomer

Posted on November 24, 2010 by

According to the Telegraph, bankruptcies are on the rise for divorced, middle-aged British women. To make matters worse, the media is referring to this group as “ladygloomers.” Such a lovely word for a horrible situation. It reminds me of Helena … Continue reading →

MAKENEW, Valentino and keeping dry

Posted on November 22, 2010 by

One of the realities of living on the east coast is that, if you dress weather-appropriately, you’ll spend half the year looking like Captain Dork, yarg. No one, no one makes decent looking rain-repellent coats with hoods. So what’s a … Continue reading →

Let them eat macarons

Posted on November 19, 2010 by

It seems that everywhere I turn these days, there’s a vision of a jewel-coloured macaron (Blair Waldorf stuffed her prissy mouth with them this week as a substitute for Bass love) or a proclamation that its poor cousin, the whoopie … Continue reading →

Je t’aime, Stella

Posted on November 16, 2010 by

This novel-writing month is almost over, thank god! Soon back to more fun things, like blogs. And drinking Stella. Video by hipster kings Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola, who are collaborating on the upcoming 1960s drama Moon Rise Kingdom.

Moleskine memories

Posted on November 4, 2010 by

As much as I love my new iPhone 4, it’s just not as romantic as my Moleskine, which is sadly gathering dust. But this sweet video by Jessica Findley is inspiring me not to abandon its creamy pages and ribbon … Continue reading →

Upper Sweet Side with Gossip Girl

Posted on November 3, 2010 by

So, I’m not exactly proud of my Gossip Girl watching (this is how I can tell if my husband actually is reading my blog because he doesn’t know…hi honey!), but I’m obviously not the only one who watches it for … Continue reading →

Day one NaNoWriMo

Posted on November 3, 2010 by

Further proof that I’m batshit-crazy: I signed up for National Novel Writing Month. Basically you’re pledging to write a 50,000-word novel in a month. No prize other than carpal tunnel. The first 1,691 words weren’t too painful, unless you consider … Continue reading →
