Happy New Year! After a busy December filled with holiday cheer and farm renovations, I’m happy to be back to the blog. Check out how I’ve been procrastinating this week with some of my favorite links from around the web…
If you loved The Notebook, this is neat.
This article in the Wall Street Journal about procrastination was dumb. (An app to help you be better about not procrastinating? Sounds like procrastinating!)
Okay, admit it, Chris Evans looked so pretty in his Aran Irish fisherman sweater. Knives Out worth it?
This kitchen reminded me of the first time I heard the song Seven Nation Army. It was novel, yet classic, very very fresh, yet with references to the past.
Tory Burch’s bedroom with the botanicals gifted to her by Lee Radziwill.
I appreciated this dad’s tooth fairy apology.
Some great writing advice.
Jamie Lee Curtis’s top three books. (I took issue with her picks -- have read and appreciated them but they are, each of them, deeply misogynistic. Reread and see if you don't agree.)
The best piece of White House china ever.
Oh, the eighties! Poor Sarah Jessica Parker looks soooo awkward in these pics. Jami Gertz in a Lanz nightgown, on the other hand...
Daniel Levy as a sexy leprechaun?
A liberal mom who sends texts to her Fox News panelist son, who reads the texts on air.
This potter’s work will make you want to walk the beach.
Antiques of the Week: I'm a sucker for a lion with a mouthful of sugar cubes. Or a green trug full of wild flowers.
