Autumn wonder

- Posted from my iPhone

the end of an era

I'm not the least bit ashamed to admit that after putting my little A to bed on Sunday night, I snuck out alone for an early evening showing of the Twilight finale.  I hope my loyal few won't think me ridiculous when I say it was bittersweet.  Oh, the many hours I have spent reading those delicious, poorly written books, talking with my mom (who was a rather inexplicable, but utterly devoted fan) about Edward's princely qualities, and mocking the altogether satisfying movies.

I'm really going to miss this.

P.S. True love triumphs!

P.P.S. I was thisclose to putting Nikki Reed's duet with Paul McDonald in the post instead of Green Day.  Better clips from the movies in that one.  And ok, I like the song.  Oh, the self-loathing! 

weekly distractions, second edition

-On the Road poster art.

-Jessica Biel's wedding dress.  So pink.  Remember Gwen Stefani's? I'm sorry, Mrs. Timberlake, but your confection doesn't come close to this fashion statement.

-Smitten Kitchen's pancetta pot pies.  Made 'em already.  And they were every bit as delicious as they look.

-Art of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.  P.S. I love Design Sponge so much.


-Lennon and Maisy Stella, who star in my new obsession/guilty pleasure Nashville, shot to internet fame long before the show's premiere.  Understandably so.

-Starbucks isn't all bad.

-TV character business cards.  My favorites are Jesse Pinkman and Phil Dunphy.

-Loving The Daily Dot.  Especially this gem of a find, a four-year old overwhelmed and SO DONE with the drama of the election.
