I am working my way throught the Cary Grant box set. Just finished “Bringing up Baby” with commentary and documentaries. Totally get the crush but you might try adding William Powell and Myrna Loy to that list-”The Thin Man” series. For podcasts have you checked out “Vinyl Cafe”? And if you are loving Norah Jones may I suggest Regina Spektor “Begin to Hope” & Dala “Who Do you Think You Are”. But for just plain goodness http://www.wherethehellismatt.com

KRCW’s Good Food is another great food one, and there’s the Dinner Party download, which is awesome (quick review of news and funny stuff from the week). Also I don’t know if you have video, but a great thing for getting me to the gym lately is watching TV shows on my ipod. I buy a season and I tell myself I can only watch it at the gym, so it makes me want to go!

Check out http://www.howmuchdowelove.com. It’s a completely silly and hilarious podcast based in Chicago & San Francisco. It started as a way for BFF’s Sara and Rob to stay in touch when Sara moved to the west coast from Chicago. They spend 30 minutes each episode talking about things they love — tv shows, music, food (lots of food talk), drinks, Trader Joe’s, etc.

I saw you, but I was wedged up in a crowded corner and couldn’t make it to you to say hi. Did you have fun? I thought she was lovely! I am looking forward to diving into this cookbook!

For music, you may be interested in Coverville, All Songs Considered, and my fav….Indie Soup Runner!

I’m going to see PW tonight too! I’ll be on the lookout for you, though we’ve never met. I am SO excited for the cookbook!

Which Walker would you be? I want to be Nora. Watching that show is what made me feel like I could have 5 kids.

Do you actually HAVE the new Norah Jones CD/download? It isn’t supposed to come out until 11/17th – I’ve been searching for an early release to no avail. (John Mayer has a new one out on the same day.)

What about Craftypod and Craftsanity’s podcasts, for a bit of crafty inspiration ? I always find it interesting and inspiring to hear artists talk about how it all came together.

I was going to recommend Splendid Table but you’re already a fan! It’s a great podcast!

Old classic movies are always the best, and that man had class, needless to say.
Norah Jones every day and twice on weekend!
Give my congratulations to Ree for me, I just love the woman!

First of all break up with FOX news. It will only make you cranky. I’m low tech when it comes to the gym. I get these dumb little things called play a ways from my library. It helps me bump up my reading time. It’s how I got through Atonement. Though, I don’t recommend listening to anything by David Sedaris while working out. It made me laugh so hard I almost fell off the machines.

Spandexed hamster on a wheel! Priceless. Sometimes, that is exactly how I feel. I’ve also been trying to rev up my playlist for the long, dark winter of gym workouts ahead.

Really, was there ever a handsomer, classier man than Cary Grant? His handsomeness is timeless. Norah’s cool. I used to watch Brothers and Sisters but stopped. I do love Mad Men, though. Something about them all sitting around drinking and smoking at work…
