Listening:
"Rican Beach" by Hurray For the Riff Raff. (Found this via Kate Miss and her always enviable music mixes.)
"Mississippi" by The Cactus Blossoms. (Heard this on a new Twin Peaks episode.)
"Moses of the South" by Colour Revolt. (Discovered this through a favorite music recommender.)
Reading:
The Writing Process. This is perfect.
I want to see the movie "The Big Sick." Here's a story behind the story.
I want to read this children's book: "What Are We Even Doing With Our Lives?: The Most Honest Children's Book of All Time."
From "What Are We Even Doing With Our Lives?" (via amazon)
Craving:
Chocolate chip studded stuff.
Last week I made mixed nut butter chocolate chip cookies (adapted from this recipe) and chocolate chip banana bread bites. In total, I think I ate 26 of the 30 baked goods. Delicious, and actually fairly nutritious. I need to go make more; I'm thinking chocolate chip zucchini something.
I love chocolate chip cookies, truly. (image via acozykitchen)
Wearing:
I put on many things last week I've never worn or only worn on occasion. It was nice. Refresh!
Top picks: a shiny skirt, an off-the-shoulder striped dress, and thick canvas tank top.

Watching:
Dave Chappelle's Netflix special "The Age of Spin." Brilliant.
"The Wedding Singer." Killer soundtrack and terribly wonderful outfits.

Wanting:
"Salad for President: A Cookbook Inspired by Artists." By Julia Sherman.
The creator of the immensely popular Salad for President blog presents a visually rich collection of more than 75 salad recipes, with contributions and interviews by artists/creative professionals like William Wegman, Tauba Auerbach, Laurie Anderson, and Alice Waters.
This book looks beautiful and delicious. I want to be like Julia Sherman.
