good morning monday {october 2}
singing
as you might have guessed, i am still singing paul simon.
watching
disc five of oprah's twentieth anniversary DVD collection.
studio 60 on the sunset strip. (it is on tonight. oh yeah. it is on tonight.)
doctor who. (okay, it is really jon’s show. i don’t love it like he does. but i watched it with him all the same.)
reading
pure style living by jane cumberbatch.
the poetry of anna swir.
this beautiful post by pixie.
creating
still creating purses! (not that much farther than i was last week, but i am getting there.)
enjoying
spending half the day in my pajamas watching tv and reading blogs. love sundays.
eating
doughnuts and jam for dessert at The Dahlia Lounge in Seattle. i am still talking about them. it was quite an amazing experience. (i kept quoting Joey from Friends - doughnuts? jam? "I say put your hands together.")
amazing cheese from this italian deli maureen introduced me to when she was here. take a sweet cracker and top with a blue cheese-esque, roquefort, gargonzola blended cheese, a walnut, and a dollop of mango chutney.
scallops and prawns on the grill.
drinking
pumpkin spice soy lattes.
anticipating
the arrival of our new appliances today and the installation tomorrow. (not just the dishwasher but a new stove and microwave. could this BE any more exciting??)
the first episode of battlestar galactica on Friday night. (yes, we like sci-fi in this house.)
thinking
about the time i spent with my dad and his girlfriend when they were here. a nice time had by all.
about the way my husband takes care of me. (thank you sweetie.)
loving
hanky panky underwear. (here’s the scoop. they are one size fits all. they actually have a larger size but i found it to be a bit too big for me. however, how can you not love a company that has sexy underwear for all sizes??!! i have seven pairs now. one for each day of the week you ask? ahh…yes! I have been searching for sexy underwear that fits! and is also comfortable! and can be worn with lower rise pants but still cover my belly! [though I would avoid the super, duper low rise that they have unless you don’t want to cover much. which is okay, but not for me. i am wearing the regular thongs.] yes. it is a thong. but, no, it does not become “floss” and you don’t even notice it is a thong. because it isn’t a typical thong. I can even wear them doing yoga and I don’t notice them at all. they also have boy shorts that I will try soon. if you are thinking “nope, not for me” send me an email [not kidding] because i think you need a pair. just one. just try them. they might change your life a bit. i am trying to bring the sexy into my life [since it seems to have moved states] and this is the first step.)

I meant to write "pumpkin"!
What a fun post Liz! I wanted to tell you too that I saw your favorite pumpking donut at Starbucks and it took every last bit of willpower to hold me back from getting one. My two biggest plea grabbers were, "But Liz mentioned it on her blog! I have to try it!" followed by "its seasonal! if I don't try it now, I may never have the chance again!" But still, I held back! Now at my new job I pass Winchell's every day and I may have to change routes because donuts are little round cesspools of demonic evil but I still love them! I'm going to look now at those undies and blogs you linked!
i love how everything changes your life - weather it's a profound book of poetry or a sexy thong. you are so fun.
great great happy post!
i'm going to check into studio 60
and see how i like it...
:)
i love reading your lists...
they are just too much fun
heehee
Loving this list sister!! Studio 60 is fantastic as is Paul Simon and of course, pumpkin spice lattes. Three of my current faves as well! Everything else sounds really wonderful...you're eating list made me so hungry! Thanks for the happy thoughts!! xoxox
Thanks for linking to Pixie's story ... for sharing that amazing Scribble ... for lots of stuff, really.
How are the appliances?
I feel such 'light' in all your words today.
Thanks for sharing your treasures today :)
XxxD
thank you for the sweet plug-your readers are amazing souls!
fracken A. donuts and jam, yeaaahh!!!! that and the cracker/cheese/chutney sound like my new favorite foods of the week! i love your underwear advert. a thong that doesn't become floss? can it be true? i have to see it to believe it. hip hip hooray for sexy!
i love to see you having so much fun. it really suits you...
:)p
New appliances and sexy underwear all in one post - luv ya!!!!
I love my hanky panky's!! They truly are the best, esp. the low-rise cotton thongs.
Studio 60 is on when Weeds is on....such conflict. So far my friend has been taping so I'll heist her tape once Weeds is done.
I love my hanky panky's too!
I bought some in a small store in Woodstock.
They are just as comfortable as you describe.
I loved reading all you are up to-mind body and soul.
XO
i think i need some of those panties. shortly after britt was born i had the not-sexy blues. i saw an episode on oprah about pole dancing/strip tease and i bawled through the whole thing...i kid you not...and then i went out and bought the book but never really could figure out the moves...ah well...
Ok, you're making me hungry! ;)
I love this list and am going to shamelessly copy you later this week.
Great chatting yesterday, let's do it again soon. Lemme know about the weekend.
(((((HUG)))))))
So glad to have found your blog, Liz.
LOVE the list. LOVED pixie's blog. Gotta go check out the undies now. Sure would like to bring the sexy back to my house.
Also--thanks for your comment on my blog. The Brazilian story was funny to me, but I was afraid I'd offend others. Good to know you laughed.
