Gems of the (Previous Few) Week(s)

I haven't done one of these in awhile, so it's pretty lengthy (so lengthy that I had to save some of the stuff for next week's post.)

As always, for more finds (and the such) you can follow me on..... pinterest / twitter / instagram / tumblr

I started writing a shopping column for Etsy. This month's post is about school supplies and before that - knots (post title: "Knotty by Nature" - YES) and constellations.

ENTERTAINMENT-ISH

Yes the Sex and the City movies were pretty much shit, but I will love the show and its SHEER GREATNESS until the day I die... so I love whenever Emily Nussbaum stands up for it on twitter (also here) and in article form / Tony Gennaro designs a cover for every Bob's Burgers table read via Flavorwire (also - Bob's Burgers is the most sex-positive show on TV) / "Get away to the Overlook Hotel!" / favorite Buffy moments / Awkward Family Photos with Danny McBride and Maya Rudolph / the cover to the third Wildwood novel / a sandwiches duet / the vehicles of Breaking Bad / The Book Thief trailer / dueling banjos with Kermit and Steve Martin / a new song by Karen O from Spike Jonze's next movie (I listened to the songs she did for Jonze's Where the Wild Things Are over & over again)
