    LADIES of the LOUNGE

    lol I dunno, I've been feeling it lately because I'm not the skinny, fresh-faced gal that I once was. I try not to think about it too much. I work with women my age that look 10-15 years older than I do because of the way they dress and how they carry themselves. That always makes me feel...

    Who Are Your Celebrity Look-Alikes?

    I remember watching Warhol's Frankenstein and Dracula as a child on USA Up All Night too! I think USA Up All Night and Night Tracks helped to make me who I am today. ;) I'll never forget the first time I saw Wendy O. Williams in Reform School Girls... lol

    What are you wearing today??

    I'm wearing one of my favorite sweaters today. I'm so glad it's sweater season again, I love them! It's a gray argyle v-neck with a black and red pattern, worn with a white blouse with a peter pan collar underneath, black a-line skirt, gray tights, a pair of patent leather ballet flats and my...

    Pot luck ideas

    I think a ham is an easy and inexpensive way to feed a group of people. You could serve scalloped potatoes, a veggie (perhaps green bean casserole), bread and a nice green salad.

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    It's a new piece made from vintage bakelite parts - the back is a poker chip, the flower buds are beads and the bow is jewelry charm. I got it from etsy - the seller is Booboorw. I don't know if I should be giving away my secrets like this! lol

    Holiday Recipes

    Warning - When you cook kidneys it smells an awful lot like urine. It can be quite unappetizing if you are not accustomed to it.

    Show us what you've made!

    I just finished knitting this hat for a friend's baby: I just need to finish weaving in the ends and it will be done. My next project will be a pair of fingerless cable knit gloves knit in a cashmere yarn.

    Presents at the Office Christmas Party...best/worst

    I agree. Bath & Body Works seems to be the place to go when a more generic gift is needed. For the most part, you can't go wrong with a nice scented hand lotion or a candle. But since you gave scented soaps and candle boxes previously, perhaps a small gift card to Barnes & Noble or Borders...

    Show us your vintage home!

    I feel your pain, Joie! The previous owners of my house put a mirror to the left and right of our toilet - giving the viewer a full view of themselves and the toilet. If you look in the mirrors just right, you can see yourself into infinity because the mirrors keep reflecting off of each other...

    Fido, starring Billy Connelly as a pet zombie in the 1950s. lol I thought the movie was a clever take on the atomic/red scare movies of the 50s. Anyone else see it?

    Who Are Your Celebrity Look-Alikes?

    My husband tells met hat I look like Regina Spektor. Personally, I don't see it. But if he wants to keep on believing it, that's fine with me. [huh]

    What is it you want more than anything...?

    M Tatterscratch and Sally - Thank you for sharing those clips, Shine On Harvest Moon has always been a song near and dear to my heart. I always imagine it being sung to a ukelele accompanyment. If you enjoy this sort of music, I recommend watching the recent DVD release of the Al Jolson...

    Flowers In My Hair: Style and Etiquette

    How about making barettes from more seasonal items like silk autumn leaves? Last Christmas I made a corsage and matching barette from fake holly berries and leaves. I wore the barette pulling back the left side of my hair and the corsage on my right shoulder with a vintage black sweater and a...
