Still Funny

Chappy Chanukah

Tonight I hosted my first family holiday party. Even though Hanukkah was two weeks ago and it's a minor holiday and I didn't actually make any of the major food dishes, tonight was a LOT of work. I made a chocolate cake and asparagus and I cleaned a lot. I think my back is starting to hurt.



I baked!

How do you spell Hanukkah?

My mom voluntarily posed for a picture. It's a happy Hanukkah afterall! Doesn't she look cute?

Do you want to come over?

My Housewarming thingy was a success aside from a broken picture frame (that will cost a bunch of $$ to replace, Damn you, Cho). I was really happy/touched so many people came. I was pretty nervous it was gonna be me Monica and a bunch of vodka. I meant to take a lot of pictures but I got distracted. It's hard to multi-task hostess and photographer. Below are a couple-- obviously I edited out the ones where I look bad.

Happy Thanksgiving

I would build up credit card debt for this bag

I want this bag. I need this bag. It's small but not too small. You could wear it day or night. It would look good with everything I own. It's really cute. I mean look how cute Rachel Bilson looks carrying it. That could be me. If only I could remotely afford it.

This bag is also cute




However I'm less enthusiastic about it after finding the sold out (damn you! why isn't is sold anywhere else?) Phillip Lim bag on Colette (you should click on this link regardless cause the website has an awesome soundtrack).

OMGZ

Candance Bushnell is writing a prequel to Sex and the City.

Who's has two thumbs and is excited?

This girl.

He'd already rather be bow hunting

Trailer for Noah Baumbach's latest movie. I want to see this.

Side note: Noah Baumbach's Kicking and Screaming is one of my favorite movies. It's like a better version of Reality Bites (although I still love that movie). Basically I'm into movies from the mid 90's where the characters are the type of people I thought were cool when I was younger (Ethan Hawk).

Speaking of "Whatever"

hehe.

New Moon

I'm sorta like whatever about New Moon but I'm really into the movie soundtrack (I LOVE movie soundtracks). Anyways my fave song from it is "Friends" by Band of Skulls. I was humming it all weekend.

Cutest Wedding Invitation Ever.

Kandinsky

Saw the Kandinsky exhibit at the Guggenheim on Saturday. If you go after 5:45 on Saturdays its free-ish (pay what you want.. uh is $1 okay?). Not the biggest Kandinsky fan (I feel like he's too science-y not emotional enough) but seeing a show (correct terminology?) at the Guggenheim is always a treat. It feels like a cohesive story rather than just art subjectively scattered on a wall. I don't really know that much about art and I feel like the curator made the exhibit very accessible to the average, non art school educated public.

The best part is on our way from the museum we saw Eliot and Silda Spitzer walking down 5th, holding hands.

She's cool

Charlotte Gainsbourg feat. Beck, 'Heaven Can Wait' -- Video Premiere - Spinner

This video is weird but cool.

I've been listening to...

Album

I've been listening to this a lot. It makes me feel a bit coolhipster while I'm formatting excel charts.
