It’s raining here and I’m listening to music.  Sounds fun, huh?  Anyway, I was imagining some songs that would be great to dance to in the rain.  I’m not talking about a choreographed dance either.  I’m talking about that free – eyes closed, like nobody’s watching, just moving to the music – type of dancing.  It’s these sorts of things that we should take advantage of.  How often do we use nature to ‘let go’ or relax?  Since it’s been warm lately, getting caught out in the rain doesn’t seem so bad.  I think I’m going to add this to my bucket list:

 

 

 

Norah Jones will release her fifth studio album, Little Broken Hearts, produced by Danger Mouse on May 1st via Blue Note/EMI.  I cannot wait for this album.  It’s just the kind of ‘mellow’ that I need right before my crazy summer.  So far, “Happy Pills” and “Travelin’ On” have made me quite pleased with the collaboration (although, I’m never disappointed by Norah or Danger Mouse so I should’ve known the duo would be grand).  NPR is now streaming a new track titled, “Say Goodbye”.  I think I like this one the best so far.  Find the stream below, followed by the album’s tracklist and itunes pre-order link.  I believe there is an instant free download of “Happy Pills” when you pre-order.

‘House At The End Of The Street’ official trailer.  I love horror and I love Jennifer Lawrence.

Okay, so, I’m posting this 2 days late BUT I’ve just been so wrapped up in listening to it.  Vol. 2 is right on the heels of Art Dealer Chic Vol. 1 that was released last month and it is even more amazing!  He really has a way with words.  His lyrics and melodies float over stellar production so effortlessly.  And his vocal arrangements are always such a pleasure to hear.  This man is talented.  The download link below will also give you an option to download Vol. 1 (in case you haven’t heard it yet).  All he asks for is your email and a description of your hopes & dreams.

At 25, I have tried so many exfoliating facial scrubs.  There were the expensive products that didn’t quite live up to the hype (or the price), and there were the cheap products that proved the theory, ‘you get what you pay for’, to be so true.   For awhile, I wasn’t able to find any products that I absolutely loved.  I’m so lucky my skin is not sensitive because when I tell you I’ve tried a lot of product, I’m not exaggerating.  My skin is pretty normal.  It’s not sensitive. It’s not oily or dry.  Aside from indulging in too much chocolate or sneaking a soda into my diet, I don’t have any real issues with acne.  I was looking for a product that would just liven up my complexion a little and do away with those blemishes that sometimes surface.  I’m kicking myself for not trying this product sooner.  I always skipped over this brand on the shelf.

BUT, I can finally pledge my loyalty to St. Ives Fresh Skin Invigorating Apricot Scrub.  For use by men and women.   Guys, don’t be ashamed to exfoliate.  I hear it does wonders for stubborn ingrown chin hairs.  Get details & reviews HERE

I stumbled upon a very talented artist’s blog.  This girl is amazing.  Visit Simini’s SITE for more images like this one:
