Random Things I'm Loving Right Now
(In no particular order...)
Ani Phyo's site of raw recipes and her show got picked up by BoingBoing, where I discovered her site. She has some amazing looking recipes and this weekend Kate and I made the raw donut holes. They were crazy good and super easy and I can't wait to make some more. They made me want to try her other recipes and her line of SmartMonkey raw food bars. After hearing about "popcorn lung" all week, this recipe will make you wonder whether the world really needs buttery flavoring.
I saw the new film for "The Jane Austen Book Club" and while I read the book that the movie is based on, I've never been a big Austen fan. My friend from college has always been a devotee, but not me. I've started reading Sense and Sensibility and I'm giving it another try. I also wasn't a big Maria Bello fan, but she was really good in this movie, although freakishly tan. I watched "Shattered" with her afterwards, but I don't think that movie did anyone any favors.
My friend, Clarissa, who we just visited in Chicago and her husband have a great band, Catsplash, that has a really addictive sound. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.
Lauren's breaking out the 8-bit intarsia knitting madness. And I quote, "check it".
