Medicine for Mondays: Lulu


Gotta love Lulu, "the original Scottish dynamo"! This is an awesome clip. So much mad 60s mod style - and I love her moves! Best!

R.I.P. Elizabeth Taylor

Last year, I read the Vanity Fair articles about Elizabeth Taylor and her life-long love for Richard Burton and found them utterly fascinating. I'm saddened to hear of Liz's passing. Rest in peace, dear one with the violet eyes!

Tuesday Tunes: The Clutters


On Sunday night, I had the chance to catch up with my friend Stephanie, drummer for The Clutters. It was great to see her and her sweet husband for dinner and drinks here in Memphis as they made their way home to Nashville after SXSW! The Clutters will have a new LP out on May 10, 2011 on Chicken Ranch Records.

The "I Love You" List

Wardrobe Army Apparel
Of all the helpful ways to lend your monetary support to Japan, I think this lovely t-shirt design, with proceeds to benefit Salvation Army Japan in this time of dire need, is the nicest of all. I'd totally wear that! {via sfgirlbybay}

The details of this bicycle wedding are beyond amazing. A full day of wedding events including bike rides, picnicking and mini golf on a custom-made 6-hole course! {via Oh Happy Day! and with all the astonishing deets at Martha Stewart Weddings}

The "I Love You" List

Fontaine & Trixie

Fontaine
This week, the "I Love You" List is limited to... my puppies! Two weeks ago, I adopted a rescue dog and, well, we are in love. Her name is Trixie and she's an 8 month-old miniature dachshund/chihuahua mix. She's tiny and is a very welcome addition to my household. My two year-old mutt, a mini dachshund/miniature pinscher mix, is thrilled to have a full-time playmate. (The cat typically tires of playing with him in about 10 minutes, but the puppy has a lot more stamina!) Now if only we could get her fully house-trained...

Flashback Friday: Jilted John & The Rezillos



Here are two of my all-time faves, both from 1978 - Jilted John's first appearance on Top of the Pops (love this song!) and The Rezillos doing their hit called Top of the Pops.
