things i'm in love with

oh friday. sweet friday. my favourite day of solitude and productivity. and love. lots of love.
things i'm in love with THIS week.

this article on martial arts teacher sam mcgee, who has offered free martial arts training in harlem for almost 50 years. there are truly some amazing people in this world.

can't wait for this to come out. a) i'm in love with adrien brody. b) wes anderson may be the one genius in the world who i would not have the words to converse with, were i to meet him in the streets.

and, oh hey, what the heck. i said i loved them, didn't i? and i also love GIFs. so. what could i POSSIBLY love more than wes anderson gifs. with AB in them. (and others. because they're so amazing). you can find all of them here.

i'm in love with this recipe this week - i'm struggling with creativity overall, and part of that includes creativity in what i eat. yesterday for dinner i hate half a can of brown beans, mashed potatoes, and a small salad. not exactly rocket science. after doing a ton of groceries, and putting some stuff in my fridge that i love, i'm going to make this. and probably a few other recipes from fat free vegan.

this great version of 'the logical song' by ornette.

thanks friday. for being awesome. have a great weekend.

women in film

From March 25th - March 29th is the Female Eye Film Festival. Dedicated to showing films, documentaries, shorts, etc. by solely women producers, directors, writers, and so on, this film festival is a blessing amongst those good 'ole standard read holleywood starlets. Check out the schedule - tons of stuff to look forward too, including script readings, panel discussions, and some amazing films by women (obviously).

Apparently there's been some difficulty because of the recession, and trying to get funding, but goodness knows those Toronto feminists pulled it together. Working hard - a woman's job. :)

Ohhhhhhhh I'm joking.
