On Blexbolex

Saisons, by French illustrator Blexbolex and Albin Michel Jeunesse, is a very beautiful book. Ours was purchased at the Palais De Tokyo on our honeymoon and is now my most prized coffee table book, mostly because of the amazing colour scheme.

On Balls and Bases

Part of Jared's bday present involved eating this outrageously unfibrous food. I don't have a baseball team but it looks like I've become a Nats fan (even though they lost miserably to the Mets). But seriously, how fun is going to the baseball?!?

On Our Cousin Ghazaleh/Melody

As far as i'm concerned, she can have two names - nay, even five - so long as she continues with her way cool "i thought you might like this" emails.

On I HATE FACEBOOK Part II

My friend Laily* sent me this article today, which you really should read, called: "Top Ten Reasons You Should Quit Facebook". Point #3 tells you how to delete, not just deactivate, your account. Hooray for that.
*Laily doesn't have a blog, so I can't link to her, but she should get one. To petition for a Laily blog, enquire within.

On I HATE FACEBOOK

And now I'm pretty sure my account has been hijacked. Ie see below (wtf?!??!)
Therefore, I deleted it. Win/win situation, really.
