Remember my idea to repaint my bathroom last weekend? Here is the final result, with a couple of before and after shots mixed in. How gorgeous is this new shower curtain from Anthropologie? The cherry blossom paint hue makes the bathroom extra girly, but I think it’s the perfect match! What do you think?
The weekend is here!
Ping pong a la Susan Sarandon
New Yorkers, take my advice — the next night you have free, play ping pong at Spin, Susan Sarandon’s new club near Madison Square Park. I finally had the chance to check it out and, oh, what good times we had! Grab a bite to eat at Ducks Eatery before and prepare to hit the tables yourself by watching the pros play. The bleacher style seating next to the courts is the perfect pre-gaming decor. It’s the best way to get your adrenaline pumping before picking up a paddle to play!
The Sing Off 2: Brown Jabberwocks
It’s like an a cappella dream come true! Now that NBC’s a cappella hit The Sing-Off has been green-lighted for a second season, rumors about possible contestants are swirling around the Internet. Who has my vote? I agree with Yahoo’s “Reality Rocks” music blogger Lyndsey Parker — the Brown University Jabberwocks are it.
Seeing Lyndsey’s post about their winning potential made me think back to my college days. As a member of the Wheaton College Wheatones, the Jabberwocks opened for us many a time, much to the delight of our audience members and fans. On the December night pictured above, they wowed the crowd with a little John Mayer, Prince and the most crowd-pleasing version of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” I’ve ever heard.
Straight from YouTube, check out this clip of the Jabberwocks at a recent show. Something tells me that after watching, this group will have your vote too.
You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger
Is anyone as excited as me for the opening of Woody Allen’s new film? His latest work — You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger — is set in London, a comedy starring Anthony Hopkins and Gemma Jones. I love the movie poster (pictured above), almost as much as I love his recent interview with Dave Itzkoff in the New York Times. The film opens in theaters this week.
