Tuesday Tune

After a couple of sunshine-y days I am feeling better about everything. Funny how that works.
For today's tune I have Adele. I don't really know that much about her other than she is from the UK and has a mind-bogglingly beautiful voice.
Hope you enjoy!







Amazing. xo

I am beginning to feel a little depressed by this crap-tastic weather. I mean, it is practically the beginning of June and the rain and cold weather just keeps on coming. Blah.
I have been laying pretty low, trying to stay dry. I've been getting lots of cleaning done. Lots of sewing. Drinking lots of coffee and tea.


Tonight we are having a little girls night and are going to see roller derby. There are going to be two bouts with local ladies. I am so stoked! This is the first time I have seen derby and I can hardly wait.
Hope you are all having a lovely weekend! xo

I just want to say how much I am enjoying these posts. I hope you are too! When I write these posts I am listening to so many of my very favourite songs. And musicians. It is very inspiring for me.
Sooo...for you this week - Leonard Cohen. In my late teenage years and my 20s I read loads of poetry. I wrote it too but it always came out so dark. Reading poetry was joyous for me regardless of the subject matter. Leonard Cohen's poetry blew my mind.
His songs are fucking beautiful.

It is a joy to watch the pure uninhibited enthusiasm of a child.
And its catching.
Hope you all enjoy your long weekend!

The Beastie Boys have a new record out and while I haven't heard the whole thing yet, I have listened to a few songs. They were great! I was having a conversation with a friend last week about our favourite Beastie Boys album. And you know what? We couldn't pick a favourite. They are all just that good.
I went a little crazy here. I limited myself to only four songs. Hope they make you get up and dance!

Sunny Sunday and Goodbye's

This morning I went and had brunch with an amazing bunch of ladies. The occassion? My Kiwi friend, Chloe, is heading back to NZ. We met at work and she is just so awesome. She has more energy, more personality and more hilarity that anyone I have ever met. All I do is laugh when I am around her.
We took over the corner window seat at the Full Circle and had some seriously amazing food. I had a very non-traditional benny with bacon (mmmmm....bacon....), tomatoes, goat cheese, caramelized onions and of course, hollandaise. It was scrumptious.
Chloe, I am so sad to see you go. I hope our paths cross again one day! I love you and wish you good times and lots of laughter (which I am sure there will be!). Hugs and kisses to you, doll! xo
