Pour a little for Omar Knedik

After 2 years of living in a land where Slurpees are unheard of...

I've found a 7eleven. 

A little slurp for thought:

1) The Slurpee was invented by shop owner Omar Knedik in the late 1950's when his soda fountain broke (I'm sure you can figure out how the story went from there.)

2) Adele's personal fav, the 'Screamer', is made by floating a little soft-serve ice cream in a Slurpee.

3) Winnipeg, Manitoba (Ca) has been named the Slurpee Capitol of the World 10 years running.

4) Most Slurpee flavors are certified kosher parve, halal and vegan. The Diet Pepsi (?) and Pina Colada flavors are not.

5) During the summer months in Vancouver, my average Slurpee intake was approx 0.75 Slurpees/day.

They are the very best.

I was lucky enough to get to see some good ol' London friends play in ny this weekend.  They call themselves The Very Best and for good reason- the show was filled with amazing tunes, special guests and cute dancers. If you missed it they'll be doing it again across N.america in October so make sure to check them out.

My new cell doesn't take the clearest pictures so watch the video:

And for the 2 of you in New york that read this, I know I've already invited you, but come to this on Saturday.... 

It's hot out there

Today was one of those days that the only reason there was any heat to the water in my second shower was to open my pours enough to get the sticky out.

I think I may be melting.

coming and going

 

I was looking through the pics from my leaving london /annabel's housewarming and thought I might post some on here, since the only people that would ever look at this page are probably in the photos anyway. 

Someone thank Gil for all the food and the fireworks display.

Oh, and Anthony (if you read this) I miss you.... 

Don't let it go to your head.

Apparently, someone's shown Prada the iEffect app and they've used it to shoot a lookbook.

(and that's why they call me the comedian.)

The best blog on this putain de planet

Have you ever checked out LP's blog? Well you should, it's amazing.

Along with Blahg Blahg Blahg, it's my favorite thing on 

the whole world wide web. 

(and let's be honest Annabel, one of the reasons I love your blog is because I'm mentioned so often.)  

He finds all the cool stuff so I can focus my internet efforts on current obsessions. 

Presently: M.  K. & A.  sites.

You may notice that he refers to me as The Comedian. That's because he thinks my jokes are just so funny. In fact, he's always telling me to start a stand-up act... 

practicing outside the house of course, where he can't hear me. 

Juicefast

There are certain foods/drinks that i have enjoyed more as I've aged; 

wine,

seafood,

bread crust, 

mushrooms, 

onions,

stinky cheeses, 

and now extra pulp in my oj.

Used to be a smooth girl but this is too much like the real thing.

Disclaimer: juicefast is breakfast and juice combined, not fast juice. 

Don't drink too quickly, you may choke.

(baboom-cha... that ones for you LP)

What did you have for breakfast?

Being unemployed has it's advantages. Having no money/not knowing anyone to go for lunch with has forced me to be more adventurous with left overs.
On today's menu: Sundried tomato and feta scramble served with fresh basil on sourdough bread (I'd forgotten how the good bread selection is in N.America.)

It is a Small World after all

okay it's a little late but my first day in ny..

First things first, LP took me out to get everything I needed to feel comfortable; cell phone, check, dresser to put my little things in, check. Unpacked and cellphone in hand we took my first real walk around the neighborhood, down to the lower east side and what do we happen upon but a gigantic billboard in the lower Eastside with Johan's name on it!

We turned the corner after leaving the billboard, we came across the new Pimps and Pinups salon (the salon my bff Karl works for in London) that opened up here a few months ago. We dropped in to say hi to the owner James who just happened to be in town for a few days. We left to go check out a boutique LP likes to shop at just down the street and low and behold Dani Brown is working.

Feeling at home already. Disney really had something with the whole 'small world' thing.  Who knew?

The pic above is Johan's billboard. Get the free music for It Was Written here or better yet prepare for The Very Best Tour here with even more free music.  How could you not love this guy?
