Relatively Speaking

While there are many new plays that I can’t wait to check out on Broadway this fall, I’m especially looking forward to Relatively Speaking, a show featuring three one-act comedies, all directed by John Turturro. Sure, Ethan Coen and Elaine May are in the mix, but I’m most excited about Woody Allen’s “Honeymoon Motel“. Previews of the show begin September 20th, which means I need to get my tickets now. What about you ā€” are there any Broadway shows that you are planning to see?

The weekend is here!

Happy Friday dear readers! Whew, we made it. šŸ™‚ What a week, right? It’s always tough to get back into the post-Labor Day groove. What do you have planned for the weekend? My good friends Christian and Shalah are hosting a dinner party on Saturday ā€” I’m so excited to see them and catch up. It doesn’t hurt that Shalah is an amazing cook! Here, to get your weekend started right, a few happy posts from around the web:

The townhouse trench.

Functional ā€” and inspirational ā€” offices.

In case you love astronomy

Stripes! 

Goodbye summer.

The bee’s knees

Jenna crosses the pond.

A day at the zoo! 

Serenity now.

I wish I was here. šŸ™‚

The art of organization

Do you consider yourself to be an organized person? I definitely tend to be more organized than not ā€” I feel better going to sleep when things have been properly prepped and arranged for the day ahead, as crazy as that may sound! This may be why I love the images above. Quite an interesting take on organization and creating a method to the madness. šŸ™‚

‘Call him out’ by Jeannine Hebb

Not too long ago, I found myself out at Caffe Vivaldi in the West Village on a random Saturday night in New York. I was looking for good wine and good music, and clearly, I had come to the right place. By pure coincidence, I caught a performance by Jeannine Hebb, whose debut music video can be watched above. I love the catchy rhythm and piano accompaniment of ‘Call Him Out‘, one of Hebb’s many original tunes. What do you think? Are you a fan of the song?

Say ‘I do’ at New York’s City Hall

Would you ever choose a city hall wedding over a more elaborate affair? That’s exactly what the couple above did, and I have to admit, I think it’s an incredibly romantic idea. It just seems so personal and sweet ā€” an intimate moment that only the two of you share. Of course, that doesn’t mean that these two didn’t celebrate their marriage with friends. That very same weekend, they threw a huge Brooklyn party with everyone they knew to toast getting hitched.

Here’s another famous couple who got married at New York’s City Hall. I’d love to know ā€” what are your thoughts on the idea?
