But isn't it pretty to think so?

*Last week I had roughly three friends send me links to roughly three blogs all about food. Each subject line of the aforementioned emails went something like this "Right up your alley!" or "thought of you". I've been pegged.








*I've been reading (re: loving) Justin Taylor's "Everything Here is the Best Thing Ever" (it's where this posts title is from). Sometimes I have no idea what he is talking about and sometimes the stories are boring and the messages lost on me, but that man can put together 17 words and make the most beautiful sentence ever. Par example: "We're intense and idiosyncratic, just like everyone else. We love out of fashion. We call exes in other states just to chat."


* I'm trying to grow zinnias. They should look like this. They don't, however, because someone decided to eat pistachios on the balcony (fire escape) and throw them in the flower pot.



*Downright.obsessed.with.Beaujolais.Nouveau. A friend of mine happened upon it the other day and seeing how it is typically tough to find after it's debut in November, I quickly ran out (literally, ran) and bought four bottles. Sadly, I now know why it's more of a seasonal wine and not the type that gets better with age- tasted like fruit punch. Buzzkill.
