Seven Days of Joy: Day 2
Dec. 20th, 2008 10:23 pmI'm going to make this a quick post because I feel a cold coming on and I'm all achy and just want to get cozy under the covers and fall asleep, but I promised I'd write for seven days, and I am going to do it! ;)
For the uninformed, here's the original explanatory post about what I'm doing here: Day 1. All caught up? Alrighty, let's commence with the next list o' happiness.
DAY 2
* Made dinner for my aunts and grandmother tonight. Shrimp cooked with garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and a touch of olive oil. Served with brown rice and broccoli. Quick, easy and fun to cook; yummy to eat. They liked it, so I'm happy.
* Pumpkin body butter. I smell like pie. (Hey, is it true that a quick way to capture a man's heart is to smell like food? I wonder which one Jensen Ackles would like better -- eau de pot roast or étouffée? Heeee. Kidding! I just like saying the word étouffée. It amuses me. Look at me, I'm suddenly Cajun. Okay, forget it. Besides, I'd rather smell like scrumptious pie.)
* Meryl Streep. I'm catching up on my reading and came across EW's December 5 interview with this marvelous woman. Not only is she enormously talented, but in the interview (as well as every time I've ever seen her on television) she comes across as bold, intelligent, hilarious, and delightfully honest. And her picture on the cover of the magazine is gorgeous. I admire her.
* Carrie Fisher. She's got a new autobiography entitled Wishful Drinking. Heh. It got a great write-up this week in the Trib, and a complimentary B+ review -- would that be a B+ "positive" review? sorry, just kidding -- in EW (same issue as the Meryl Streep interview). It sounds very funny. I don't know what it is about Carrie, her dry sarcasm, her willingness to laugh at her wacky Princess Leia hair style, her brazen honesty (again with the strong women, yay!)... whatever it is, I just think she's cool.
Annnnnd gimme some vitamin C and a few ibuprofen. I'm off to bed. Sweet dreams, everyone!
