5 little luxuries


ummm,  do you notice the theme of my little luxuries this week…..
 
tickets to “scatter my ashes at bergdorf’s” can. not. wait. to. see it!
 
because I need more handsome, intelligent, brooding men in my life and apt.
 
went to the blue note jazz club to listen to michel camilo perform. was feeling so jazzy and sassy, i ordered french martinis. needless to say,i will be serving french martinis. at all my soirees this week.
 
am quite giddy because of this luxurious little purchase: tickets to book launch of let’s explore diabetes with owls by david sedaris! yes, i am going to listen to the david sedaris read live!!! can you tell i am excited about this? (if you can’t make it  he will be atmcnally jackson books – 52 prince st btwn lafayette/mulberry on friday, may 10)
 
inspired by my upcoming jarabe de palo concert i wanted a real bold lip color that signaled “fierce woman in front row”. thanks to this fushia flash i just may be pulled onto the stage!

5 little luxuries


the hare with amber eyes: a hidden inheritance  by edmund de waal is currently on my nightstand book rotation. i recommended the title to a very esteemed english friend who responded,“thank you. i have read it already. my father loved it when he could still read” i think you will have the same response.
 
jonathan adler had me at happy chic. i swooped up the most darling double old fashioned glasses appropriately named elizabeth.
 
allow us to introduce you to sōsh, a free restaurant- and activity-recommending site and iphone app (already popular in san francisco) that just arrived in nyc.

really loving the free tempo app (from the makers of siri) it’s a calendar virtual assistant! you need directions to your meeting? done. here is a google map. it literally multi-tasks any calendar entry and invite. maps, related documents, dial in info, passwords. even sends out a pre-written “running late” messages
 
i became intrigued about the benefits of apple cider vinegar after reading this post and made a mental note to pick up a bottle. after stroll through whole foods i discovered the bragg organic apple cider vinegar all natural drink with honey and i am now hooked. its too soon to document any of the health claims but i feel myself releasing weight and my skin clearing (i know its wishful thinking but hey…) you better believe i will be documenting the results.
