This week has flown by and we’ve found ourselves comfortable in the middle, which I love.
Last night Jeff and I went on a five mile walk to the end of fountain and back, which for those of you in LA ends at La Cienega.
Along the way we passed lots of apartments for rent, all of which were astronomically out of our price range, but it was still fun to see what’s out there.
Then we had chicken quesadillas with green chiles and and watched Modern Family and an episode of Parks and Rec in which Leslie Knope once again plays my hero. All was right in the world.
Tonight, I head into the trenches of fondant design with a one Ms. Becca, and hope that the black colored fondant doesn’t get the best of me as my nails are just about back to normal.
In other news, please check out the Hunger Games soundtrack, as it’s rocking my world right now. It’s on Spotify and I’m sure YouTube. Maroon 5, Taylor Swift, Civil Wars, you slay me.
Top Ten: Albums
Baby I’d give you my world…
So last week when I was hanging with B (more about that later) and celebrating my new job at Amoeba, I stumbled upon the best.cd.in.existence.
Guys. If you know anything about me you know that I love 90s bands. And Fleetwood Mac is a new addition to the loves of my lives. So when I looked at this track list, I nearly fell over. FELL OVER. In AMOEBA. I’m not even joking.
Song List? Artists?
Second Hand News/Tonic
Dreams/Corrs
Never Going Back Again/Matchbox Twenty
Don’t Stop/Elton John
Go Your Own Way/Cranberries
Songbird/Duncan Sheik
The Chain/Shawn Colvin
You Make Loving Fun/Jewel
I Don’t Want to Know/Goo Goo Dolls
Oh Daddy/Tallulah
Gold Dust Woman/Sister Hazel
Can you seriously look at that and say it wasn’t made for me? All I’m saying is that it was the best two dollar find a girl good ask for as a celebration CD.
And I don’t want to know (the reasons why our love keeps…)
