What I’m Into This Week…

WATCHING:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Liberal Arts – I watched this new movie randomly, on demand, and was left with the most AMAZING feeling when it was over.  It made me think back to all of the things that I miss about college but also appreciate all of the things that I’ve LEARNED since then.  The biggest takeaway: at one point Richard Jenkins’ character says, “I’ve felt 19 ever since I was 19 … Nobody feels like an adult; it’s the world’s dirty secret.”

How to Meditate: A Guide to Self-Discovery – I recently re-watched Eat Pray Love, which obviously always sparks that inner “what am I doing with my life and where is it going” question.  I know it seems kind of silly to read a book on HOW to meditate cause, well, isn’t meditation just quiet time sitting with your legs crossed?  You would think.  I need to read a how-to book because I’m totally that girl in yoga that can’t relax and is constantly thinking “was that my iPhone that just went off?”

 

EATING:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sauteed Vegetables: It’s probably the dumbest thing ever but I tend to go through food phase obsessions and, right now, I can’t get enough sauteed vegetables.  Zucchini, tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower…I don’t discriminate, it’s all delicious.

 

LISTENING:

No Doubt “Push and Shove”: My love for all things No Doubt and Gwen Stefani is, of course, forever but I’m not biased when I say that Push and Shove is A-MAZING.  Seriously, No Doubt just gets better and better and I can’t wait to see them live on December 4th here in LA.

So I saw this post on one of my favorite blogs, Smartypanties.com, and had to share.  I adore Mary-Louise Parker, Lo Bosworth AND reading.  And as for Katie, the blog’s editor-in-chief, she is one of those people you meet and just instantly know you’re going to be good friends with.  I had the pleasure of having drinks with her before I left New York and we discovered that not only do we both have a love of beauty and fashion…but also of Chipotle and designer cupcakes.  Next time I’m in New York, we are definitely meeting up for some Mexican cupcake deliciousness!  Read her blog!
