Reminded of my love for Australia's Living Etc. magazine by this post (about using pastels in a modern way - including painting Ikea furniture) on Apartment Therapy, I set out to find a way to get my hands on a few recent issues I've missed.
Tucked away in their subscription pages, ...

I've spent the last week watching a bit of the HBO John Adams miniseries each day. I just finished the last part, and highly recommend it.
John Adams' closing words (which are not an actual quote, but are certainly inspired by his life and feelings) were an especially nice touch. ...

I recently got really into Bones (the television show, not the, uh, skeleton parts). I've seen every episode within the past few weeks & caught up in time to watch the new one on television tonight. I didn't give it a chance earlier because there were so many procedural crime ...

My sister, Shelley, is likely going to work there soon, so we went to try it out. ...

As I previously mentioned, two aspects of my dream wardrobe are a bit of Alice and plenty of Anthropologie. I am really into accent bows, and knit berets, and peter pan collars, and rounded toe shoes, and tights (even in white!) lately.

I am in love with a blog called 1000 Tiny Things I Hate. It sounds like it would be something I'd normally avoid. All depressing and mean, but it the opposite, really.
The blog, by a British comedy writer, critiques everything from the word "ramekin" to goths at Disneyland to shower ...

If you haven't seen Waitress yet, you really, really should. Nathan Fillion and Keri Russell are great as a doctor and waitress who form a relationship that goes beyond the normal doctor-patient boundaries. Adrienne Shelly, the writer and director, has a pretty cute supporting role in it too, which is ...
