Having nothing to do with it’s actual meaning, ever since I first learned the word in Mr. Dewey’s 5th Grade Class, I have always connoted “Pedagogy” with some sort of weird sickness. To this day, anytime I see something made up of small and large dots my brain goes to Pedagogy – no matter how beautiful that something is. Take… Read more →

Stay Classy, San Diego
Anne Hathaway is just plain classy. On the Red Carpet, when Tim Gunn or Ryan Seacrest (or some other blond dude wearing too much makeup) asked her what of her Oscar outfit she actually owned, she demured with a giggle – replying that the answer was “too intimate.” I mean…there’s no way I would have been stopped from talking… Read more →
Stay Gold, Ponyboy
It’s been 10 years since Scott and I (with our matching platinum coiffs) first shared an Oreo Milkshake at Cafe 50’s. Happy deca-dating-versary Shanny. My how far we’ve come. Read more →
“Martin” was a really good show.

so pretty.
If you know anyone who’s having a baby – this is about the most beautiful (and absurdly expensive) baby book I’ve ever seen. It’s screen printed and limited edition. From Binth. (If you’re in the market for a baby book, but are looking for one that’s more recession-friendly, check out Nikki McClure’s ‘The First 1000 Days.’) Read more →
Michael Bay: Antichrist.

CONNERY: You’ll do your best? Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen. CAGE: Carla was the prom queen. (Connery looks… Read more →
Mustaches for Valentine
Scott and I will be celebrating our first deca-dating-versary on Feb 19th (that’s 10 years together.) Having a {dating} anniversary that’s so close to V-day, we tend to skip the hallmark holiday altogether in our household. In honor of that great tradition, here are some of the highlights from last year’s World Beard and Mustache Competition in Brighton, England. Enjoy. Read more →
R-E-S-P-E-C-T, Smithsonian Style.
The Smithsonian wants Aretha Franklin’s Hat. Yes, that fabulous piece of millinery greatness could very well be immortalized in American history. I myself find it somehow comforting to know that if nothing else, our children’s children will always remember that Aretha had a fierce fashion sense. Read more →
Old School DIY
So, a year or so ago Scott and I discovered this dude on eBay who sells vintage issues of Sunset Magazine and Better Homes and Gardens great DIY books. This one recently caught my eye – a book full of fun DIY furniture and storage projects for your modern home. These books aren’t for the faint of heart…they’re more geared… Read more →
Too little too late.
If you are not a techno geek like me, skip ahead to a different post, because this one will bore you to tears and make no sense. If you are a techno geek – especially one who spends hours trying to work out glitches in your extensively scripted DVD Studio Pro projects, then you are going to be so excited. … Read more →
