Beau Date Friday: Tom Hardy. Obviously.

Well I don't have much to say about this one besides the fact I'm jet lagged and all I can dish out is bad guy eye candy.  So wrong?  I think not.  

Sunshine.

Summer Is Here

Don't Knock It Till You Try It Tuesdays/Wednesday Baked Alaska!

I mean really.  It's ice cream.  It's cake.  It's torched crispy meringue.  Delicious.
 (PS I would put a picture of one I actually made on here but my computer is all sorts of slow right now.  My meringue was not this artistically crafted, don't you worry)

AND it's surprisingly not that hard to make AND you can tailor it to any ice cream/cake combinations you want.


RIGHT??? 
The only thing is it's a little time consuming because the ice cream needs to set and the cake needs to cool completely.  But it's super impressive if YOU are having a dinner party (I wouldn't try taking this anywhere for melting purposes) and it mixes it up a bit.  Here's the recipe I used and there's a nice video that goes along with it.

Music Monday: Penguin Cafe Orchestra Perpetuum Mobile

I stumbled across this on Pandora and I'm in love.  It's like we are in a movie sequence that is flashing before our eyes and there is piano in it (which is my favorite instrument, I know so original) and and and.......the band name rocks.  Who needs better reasons than that?

Ben Whishaw in Cloud Atlas and Skyfall

The Most Adorable.  In Cloud Atlas he plays a composer (PIANO. swoon.) who is the cutest couple with what's his name from W.E. and in Skyfall he plays the dorky new weapons master or whatever you call it.  And he has a letter name like Judy Dench.  And he's a nerd.  And has the coolest glasses ever. 

I mean our relationship would just basically be like this.

  

Thanks Carey and Justin for filling in for us!

I Love Lucy



I adore Lucy.  Her show was my favorite growing up and whenever I'm having a brain freeze on stage in improv, I would like to think I channel my inner Lucy and pull a WWLD.  She's the best.  She taught me to be able to laugh at myself rather than find every little thing embarrassing (annnnnd soap box moment over).  So here's some video, you know, just for kicks.

HOW AWESOME IS THIS....
