Things worth getting excited for

Clockwise from left: Greys Anatomy Season One DVD. I missed the beginning episode where Meredith and McDreamy lock lips and hips. Now I need not wonder. This image for Nacho Libre is my new screeensaver. Jack Black wears tights. Jack Black flexs butt cheeks. Jack Black wears Mexican wrestling mask. Really, need I say more? Except maybe that it's written by Mike White. Which equals righteousness. In theaters June 2. Midwestern charmer, Jason Bitner, of the Found Magazine crew just happened upon a side stash of thousands of vintage studio portraits when he ordered a slice of pie at a diner. The result is his new photo book La Porte, Indiana. If you love all things from the Found family as much as I do, then you'll go out and find yourself a copy. Available March 1. Sweets has "The Life Pursuit" by Belle and Sebastian in heavy rotation this week. We've got tickets to the show at the Electric Factory in Philly. With The New Pornograhers. March 4. Bump and grinders the World Famous Pontani Sisters bring their revue, Burlesque-a-Pades in Loveland, to Asbury Lanes February 18. While travelling last week, I was mesmerized by this tale of two Chinese women.Snow Flower and the Secret Flower by Lisa See reminded me of my girlhood fascination with all things Chinese after reading everything my public library had in stock by Pearl S. Buck. In paperback February 21.Read an excerpt . A girl can't help salivating over sale items that are STILL too rich for my blood at Anthropologie. Like these 3 inch teal velvet peeptoes called Timeless Heels. I call them terrific. Center: I recently got caught up in a new Flickr group, Coloriffic Swap-o-rama. Created by Jek in the Box, the principle is simple. Collect cool items of a specific color, add a homemade item, pack it all up and ship it to another group member somewhere in the world. This is the beginning of my green themed March swap which will soon become my first internationally shipped package. Even cooler, I'll be getting one, too from another color crazy swapper. I knew Flickr is addictive but this colorific thang is my official new crack.
