Funny Facebook

Facebook has the weirdest ads

"Get some of our teeth whitener and your lips will turn glossy and multi-coloured as a bonus!"

Top notch advertising.

Bigger than Jesus


Gosh, I love this photo of The Beatles! Look how awesome and happy go lucky and chuffed and cool they all are. Especially John - my favourite Beatle.
When I'm not listening to The xx (which isn't often), I'm listening to The Beatles White Album. Best album. Guitars gently weeping, etc.

Korean Pancakes

Like I NEED another food addiction.

Someone tipped me off to the little hole-in-the-wall Korean Pancake shop on the corner of Wellesley & Lorne St.

So far I've tried chicken&Cheese and Beef&cheese, they also have sweet ones and vege ones and ham ones. And all for $2.50!

They're so good...really just a big cheap greasy mess, but I have to say I am really quite partial to big greasy messes :/ :/


Umiya has serious competition!

The xx


Today is "Listen to Nothing But The xx Day."
In fairness, the last week has almost purely been "Listen to Nothing But The xx Day." I'm obsessed: Every single song is so beautiful. Liss and I are both feeling a lot of feelings for The xx at the moment and we particularly like Intro, Crystalise, Islands and Infinity. The songs love is made out of.
It's the soundtrack to all things lovely and special, and everybody should listen to it. This video to Crystalise is also rad:

Spring shadows



Our friend Chelsea has this very cool blog about our home town, called I Have Loved You So Long. We are rather parochial around here and really do love the East Coast.
Anyway, I love these photos she took of the shadows from the spring sun coming through her bedroom window. So lovely !

Dreams


I’m going to Fleetwood Mac! Tickets sold out within minutes but luckily I have a friend with super speed internet that snapped us up a couple just in the nick of time. Joy! My life is complete.

Top 5 all-time best ever reasons why Fleetwood Mac is going to rule:

1)Stevie Nicks is one of my heroes.
2)Rhiannon, Dreams, Sara, etc has been the soundtrack to my life.
3)I have never been to Taranaki before
4)Me & my chum are going to hire a campervan, which is both hilarious and awesome.
5)Imagine all the amazing op shop and trinket spots I will discover on the nine-hour journey to the naki?!

Shamelessly sucked in by ads.


I don't know what it smells like, but I do know I want it anyway.
