Fixation Friday 2/5/10

Sorry, I skipped last week. Work was crazy. And I was having the Worst Week Ever, so I didn't feel like doing anything but sleeping and crying into a pint of Trumer. But back to liking things...

Five objects of my obsession this week:

1. This Play-Doh ad campaign ran in Singapore last fall:


For mommy's little psychopath. I think it's clever and hilarious. I'm really getting interested in advertising recently and considering taking an ad class through my work.

2. Budgeting. I'm always overly ambitious when it comes to budgets, and then when I screw up, I totally abandon the whole thing that month. But I think I finally made a workable one. It involves using mostly cash and slowly chipping away at my massive credit card debt.

3. Swimming and my apartment and new hair. I'll try to shut up about them.

4. Sushi and sake. I've been eating a lot of it already lately, and I had M and V over for a sushi dinner last night. Despite planning and prepping ahead, I was still running behind, so I didn't get to make as many rolls as I had planned. I had maki of yam-mushroom, spicy tempeh-avocado-scallion, sesame-spinach-tofu, and cucumber as well as miso soup, sake, and chocolate-wasabi cupcakes. I forgot to take pictures, but it was delish. Also, it was so nice to see them. They've decided to move but not as far away as originally planned, which means we can still visit. Hooray!

5. My dream house. It looks like this:

A two-story, two-bedroom, two-bathroom brick house in San Francisco with white trim, big windows, and a porch.



A kitchen with loads of counter space, a dishwasher, an island, two ovens, and stainless-steel appliances.

 

A hot tub on a rooftop deck overlooking the Pacific Ocean (hey, I'm dreaming here).

 

A fenced-in yard for dogz.

 

What does your dream house look like? 
What's blowing your mind this week?

"If I told you I felt ageless, would you tell me I'm not old?"

FYI

Hey people,
Just a short FYI about my raw food journey and why my posting here has become less and less frequent. That is, if anyone has really noticed. :)

I don't like this 100% raw bit anymore. It no longer seems to be working for me. I can hardly eat anything raw anymore that doesn't hurt my stomach besides my green juice and smoothie every day and the occasional salad. So I've drifted to something that resembles macrobiotics after breakfast, with the occasional inclusion of fish (P.S. This… Continue

Feeling Really Good: Shh, keep it down!


What: silence.
Why it makes you feel really good: because it's a total vacation from the noise and hustle of our lives and without vacations, we'd never get anything done!

This weekend, set your alarm for 6 a.m. on Sunday morning. Get out of bed, out of the house, and go to the nearest par… Continue

Feeling Really Good: The nose knows (enough with the corny puns already!)...



What: your favorite smell.
Why it makes you feel really good: the theory of aromatherapy states that aromas influence the brain to prevent or relieve diseases and symptoms, especially those of the feeling-really-not-good variety.

What's your favorite sm… Continue

Chimps, bonobos and orangs eat a lot of fruit, but there is good evidence that chimps have dental adaptations to eat meat, but they can also do without it.

Dorothy - I know it is hard to keep up with. I was referring to the post about your husband and dogs. It was just very sweet. :)

Chimps eat fruit (mainly) vegetation (rarely) and insects (even more rarely) and smaller monkeys (when available) but they are not -strict- fruititarians.

"I have seen young children pull the wings off of butterflies for fun" Yeah, but not for food, they didn't eat them did they?
