this song’s been in my head for a few days now, and i have to wonder…
am i a hippie?
i might be.
but i think i’m okay with that.
*sing it joni*
a little honey
once again folks, if dirty dancing is on tv, i am helpless.
somehow i managed to avoid the trap today, but i know someone who was literally “crying with happiness” during this, the final scene.
Check out Ryan Howard from the Phillies touring the white house garden with Sam Kass, the White House Chef/Obsession of Mine.
Cherry blossom kiss
What you’re givin’
Makes my body rock
Keeps me sizzlin’
go ahead Tawatha. Sing it girl.
sidenote. to find the actual lyrics, i googled:
“mtume juicy fruit tawatha agee”
which now looks totally insane to me.
high line opening june 9!
for those of you that haven’t seen me in weeks, it’s not because i hate you.
now you know why.
this stuff is my new obsession. sure, sure, everyone knows and loves the original. and the almond is a big favorite amongst the boys.
but ladies, this rosey one’s for you.
mmmmm. yummmm.
whoa scary shit.
these new jersey housewives are insane and amazing at the same time.
“I don’t know if she wants to like, be me, or skin me and wear me like last year’s Versace.” (see below for the crazy)
it’s that time of year again.
but this year, i didn’t time my visit to ancramdale quite right. early hot days prompted these lovelies to bloom early.
unable to witness the beauty up close, my lovely mother brought ME flowers. on mother’s day.
now my whole little brooklyn living room smells like the freshest, cutest little flowers in town.
thanks mom!!!!
had a tootsie roll this weekend on a sweet little country road trip and remembered this smart-ass owl.
love that guy.
it’s friday and rainy and strangely hot, and all i want to do is curl up.
…and then this happens.
honey for your lips...
any girl that came of age in the 90s in new york city remembers clinique’s black honey. 13 year olds far and wide had to know about it, and own that shit. the miraculous tube was mad dark, but looked good on every set of lips and was the mid-90s more subtle answer to the early 90s Toast of New York.
apparently, one Almost Lipstick in Black Honey is still sold every two minutes; 852 are sold daily, and 310,980 are sold each year.
there’s also a new black honey gloss which looks good, but the original version, is where it’s at.
you can thank me later.
this popped into my head today.
belinda carlisle - mad about you.
you’re gonna have to click through on this one, but it’s so worth it. takes me right back to some kind of idealized, wide-eyed, too young, love-crazed period of my youth.
hilarious that youtube seems to be keeping a tight hold on belinda.
yet another amazing incarnation of the magic that beyonce has brought to the masses. i am amazed at how many london women have learned this dance, and confused by how many london women have the same body. it’s wierd.
for previous coverage, and amazing videos:
original honey.
and again, some honey
and for good measure, can you believe this shit?
it's that time again...
…and damn it, i’m not missing it this time.
the cherry blossoms are here!!
and the brooklyn botanical garden has a very cool live-action map detailing where to spot the best of the best.
