Greeting all! Hope everyone made it through Thanksgiving successfully! David and I had a very fun time with his family up in Nebraska. It was nice to take time out and be thankful.
Grabby:
• Natalie Portman is on the cover of V magazine, celebrating Chanel. Check out the cute little stop motion movie to promote the new issue.
• The word dilettante. Do you ever just read a word and like the sound of it? That was dilettante this week.
• This awesome little script for Illustrator that is good for anyone that works with vector maps for example, where the text comes in all chopped up. With this script you can combine text into one text box again. IT RULES and you need it.
• Vice reports there’s a new Giant Robot curated show of Post-It art opening in LA this weekend. David and I saw some of these when we were in San Francisco in September. They get some pretty famous artists to participate.
• NOT shopping on Black Friday. Shopping the day after, and supporting local businesses was fabulous though! Heehee!
• Morning work outs. It’s gonna kill me, but I keep telling myself I need my evenings for freelance and blogging!
From the My Parents Were Awesome blog
• I have been looking at old pictures of my family this week, and happened to stumbled upon My Parents Were Awesome, a blog of pictures of people’s parents. I love seeing the old styles of photography, and there are some pretty amazing hairstyles too!
• The Search for the Next Elvira, aka the best reality show ever. It just makes me realize that no one could possibly fill the sexy stilettos or…cups of the original.
• I like the idea of this collapsible water bottle. It would be especially good for traveling.
• Getting awesome vintage dresses from my sister’s friend via Facebook. Yay!
• Last but not least, 2 healthy babies being born to two lovely new mommies in my office.
Stabby:
Actually…I don’t think I have anything to be that stabby about this week…knock on wood.
I’m pretty excited about getting to spend some time with friends this weekend and work on gifts I am making…maybe even shop a little.
