5 Things Tuesday
1 BANANA STAND FAIL - So if you haven’t heard yet, Arrested Development is coming back for a 4th season via Netflix. And the world rejoices!
The AD marketing team has been working overtime to get people pumped up. The Bluth Staircase Truck was spotted at the Santa Monica Pier and the Banana Stand has been touring around LA this week.
So I decided to go. I mean, why not? I’m in LA....

5 Things About Jo (by Katie Avacado)
The below 5TT post (Thursday counts!) was written by one of my awesome roommates here in LA. She volunteered to guest blog for me this week since I realized that by 11:35 PM Tuesday night that I had still not written a post. Not only did she take the time to contemplate 5 Things about Jo, but she also found matching photos or GIF’s.
1 JO DEEPLY APPRECIATES CHARACTER - and by...

5 Things Tuesday
Welp. I kind of missed my Tuesday deadline but technically I’m still awake from the lingering of yesterday … so yes. Here are 5 things going on with me:
1 MY FIRST DODGER GAME - I got to do something totally Californian this past weekend. I went to my first Dodger Game!
Granted, baseball is my least favorite sport to watch and I’m not a fan of any LA based teams but what the...

Happy Tuesday folks. Anything new exciting happen lately? Me neither … pretty ho hum here lately. Which I’m not complaining at all - I’m usually a fan of the low key.
Right now as I type up this post, my roommate and I are sitting around with our laptops watching “Alias.” What a life we lead.
Anyways. Here are 5 Things going on right now:

Sorry I was MIA for awhile folks. I seriously had to take a break of sorts, but I’m back. So here are 5 things going on with me:
1 SUPER INTROVERTED BREAK - So I’m an introvert by nature. What this means is that at times I need to severely get away and have some “alone time.” This means different things for different people. And usually I can get my regular recharge...

Hello friends. Happy Tuesday.
I’ve had a very restful day. It was kind of nice.
Anyways, here you go - 5 THINGS:
1 LAST COMEDIAN ON THE LIST - So this past weekend I flew home to Seattle to see a live Brian Regan show with my family. He’s one of our favorite comedians (and his material is clean too - great for my little bro to listen to).
Of course, he was hilarious. Facial...

Happy Tuesday. How are all y’all?
In my mind I had a running list of what this week’s 5TT post would have, but obviously when I got to writing it … brain fart.
Give me a moment. I need to brainstorm what I’m talking about.
1 URBAN DICTIONARY IS HILARIOUS - Have any of y’all ever looked up your name on Urban Dictionary? If you haven’t, you need to!...

Did you hear?! VERONICA MARS THE MOVIE IS HAPPENING!
$2.5 million raised within one day! That’s just crazy.
In the spirit of this greatness, I’ve decided to restart the series. And it’s been so interesting watching it now when I know all the secrets behind the mysteries. It’s all there.
And well, you gotta love the whole Veronica and Logan dynamic. And the ongoing joke...

1 PALEYFEST GALORE - OMG y’all. I officially love Paleyfest. It’s going to be a part of my life now, every March. Obviously I love TV. And being in the city where people eat, sleep, and breathe TV … yes. Sign me up!
This time around I was able to go to both The Mindy Project and New Girl’s Paley events. Both featured exclusive sneak previews of episodes that haven’t...

Are Wednesdays the new Tuesdays? I think it is.
Seriously though - I’m so sorry for yet again dropping the ball. I had all these great plans to queue up some posts and have them ready to go. But I’ve just been so busy that yesterday completely ran away from me.
My bad. Anyways - here are 5 things going on right now:
1 SO LAST FRIDAY I WAS A TROJAN FOR A HOT SECOND - well not...

Technically it’s after midnight and it’s officially Wednesday, but I would have had this done about hours ago if it weren’t for a silly iPhone update that stalled my life for the past 90 minutes.
Seriously - that wasn’t fun.
Had a little scare there. Things got lost and then restored again. All is OK again andnow I’m clear to do this 5TT post. Although I do have...

It’s TUESDAY FOLKS!!
I don’t know if you realized, but last week … I kind of dropped the ball on my 5TT post. I just didn’t have it in me. I mean, I had an idea of what I wanted in my post, but I had like no energy to get it out there.
And well, I suck. And I just didn’t write one. I’m sorry. But it’s OK.
It had a good theme though. A GREAT theme...

Happy Tuesday folks. How’s it going?
Hmmmm. I don’t really have witty or interesting to say in my intro so I’m just going to jump right to it. 5 Things.
1 LACY SUEDE OXFORDS - So Antrho sent out this email blast recently about these lacy suede oxfords and I think I’m in love. With a pair of shoes. That’s normal right?
I don’t know which ones I’d rather...

Crunch time folks. I’ve got an hour to pump out a 5TT post. So here goes it!
1 SAT NEXT TO RUSSELL CROWE AT IN-N-OUT - Randomness. Went to In-N-Out to have dinner with friends where no one really showed up. But that’s OK because RUSSELL CROWE did. So crazy. I didn’t even realize it was him until about 20 minutes after he sat down.
As soon as I recognized him, I pretty much...

Top Chef Thoughts
I’m watching Top Chef Seattle right now and a few thoughts come to mind.
I LOVE THIS SHOW. This is my favorite cooking competition show. Actually out of all the different types of competition shows - I love food because I feel like that was my world. You know what, it was my world for such a long time. 10 years in the food industry. Catering, baking, restaurants. I love food. I love...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
2013. We made it. Survived the Mayan Apocalypse and all. Congrats.
How was your New Years festivities? I didn’t do much yesterday. Did a family shoot (in downtown Tacoma … what a beautiful location!). And today I spent the day making Gyoza (Chinese Pot Stickers) from scratch with my family. But I’ll save the details with for the first of my 5TT post below.

2012: FAV POSTS OF THE YEAR
Hello Friends. Last year I wrote about my FAV POSTS IN 2011 so I thought I’d revisit that thought for this year.
First, I’d like to kick it off with this video. Dude. So much happened in 2012. SO MUCH. I started to list them, but really just watch the video. It does so much more justice to what I can say about the year.
Seriously watching videos like this makes me realize how big...
