Listening To- MPHO
Trust me, once you listen to this you'll keep going back for more. She's just that good. In my humble opinion I think MPHO is set to blow and make a huge splash into the music scene. If want more info (and you will after listening) check out this article for RWD magazine. Also, listen through to the end of the song to find out how to get a free MP3 mix of her new album. MPHO's got "it".
MPHO - Box N Locks
Didn't you LOVE it?!?!?!

I've been wanting to get new lamps for the living room but the ones I find I like are so incredibly expensive I've been shuffling my feet. Since our home is very old I was looking for something classic but not frumpy. I stumbled upon these and I think they will make an elegant looking addition to our living room. What do you think of them? Well, scroll to the bottom to get the full scoop...
Aged Brass Table Lamp
Aged Brass Floor LampThey're from the Canopy Collection at WALMART! The floor lamp was originally $64.88 and is now $47-. The table lamp was originally 39.97 and is now $34-
I almost fell over. I've only seen them online so my only concern is the lamp shade but, for this price if the shade looks chintzy I can replace it, right? I'm also assuming that you can't adjust the height as the knob would suggest. It's most likely just decorative and fixed into place but that's not a big deal to me. I'm spazzing a bit over how happy I am to have found these and at these prices. Thanks Walmart!

WHAT THE FUG?
American Apparel I never understood your appeal. Now I know you are a hateful company that is pointing and laughing at it's customers.So now AP, is going to have us all having to watch the moronic hipsters walking around with scrunchies. At the very least we can hope that they avoid the dreaded side ponytail. This is as bad as the headbands I ranted about here.
Poor dog, she doesn't want to be seen out in the streets being walked by a scrunchie wearing mommy. She take the proactive approach and removes it right off her head. Let's hope she buries it in a deep hole in the backyard.
What about this kitten? She's so distraught that her mommy wants to wear a scrunchie she's hissing and growling in an attempt to foil her plans. I'm thinking this lady puts on the scrunchie her face to look like a bloody line drawing. This kitty will cut a bitch.
Don't be a lemming! Just say no to scrunchies!
Cocktails Anyone?
I've been on a quest to expand my tastes beyond just wine, beer and champagne. Where to start when you're the daughter of teetotalers?Well, the beautiful Jill of Stella's Roar (A true must read. I insist) did this wonderful post about what a well stocked bar should contain. So I'm working towards that. I've also been keeping my eyes open for products that pique my interest and taste buds. I came across Square One Botanical.
It's not a flavored vodka and not a gin. It's an organic rye spirit, that like a gin, gets a kick from organic botanicals. It is infused with eight- pear, rose, chamomile, lemon verbena, lavender, rosemary, coriander and citrus peel for an experience that is softer than gin. Sounds good doesn't it?
Square One's website provides about 20 different cocktail recipes. Each one sounds more delicious than the next.
Jill also recommended a great little book in her post The Bartender's Bible: 1001 Mixed Drinks and Everything You Need to Know to Set Up Your Bar. It's only $6.99 at Amazon and really is an indispensable resource so why not grab one? My dad always said to do a proper job you need the proper tools. Come to think of it he probably just said that in order to excuse all those Craftsman purchases at Sears but whatever. Go on and get the book anyways.
Cin, Cin!

Listening To- MGMT
Here's the deal. I've always liked this song but didn't want to do a "Listening To" post about it until they released the official video (not that contest painted faced kids dancing thing- ick).
Careful what you wish for because they have, and it gives me nightmares. It features a little baby boy (he's absolutely beautiful) being taunted and chased by ghoulish alien creatures. The mom (played by folk singer Joanna Newsom) comes to it's rescue and then dumps it off to wander the streets!?!? It's shit. Scary shit, but total shit in my humble opinion.
Anyways, judge for yourself. Do yourself a favor and jump forward to the 1:00 mark. It's got one of those stupidly long annoying intros before the song actually starts. F-ing MGMT!
