Favourite Friday – the November 26th Reader Sourced Edition

L-A:  Ally and I have both been having one of those weeks/months where getting our act together blogwise is a monumental task. We still love it, but it always has to come second to babies and other deadlines. I know. Bring it up with Hugh, the clients, and my profs. So, when I realized it was time for a favourite Friday, all I could think was, “I can sleep in until 8am on Saturday!”, which is an incredibly lame favourite.  Fortunately, my mind was blown when I found Girl Talk today:

Right. I know Girl Talk isn’t actuall new. I’ve heard of Girl Talk, but I’ve never heard any Girl Talk. And that’s just silly…because I am digging it so hard right now. It is like music made for Ally and I. Girl Talk mashes up my geeky favourites with Ke$ha and Gaga. Mind. Is. Blown.  The only question I have is: what the hell took me so long?

Of course, seeing more of our Win What You Wish photo shoot is also a favourite:

Big ups to photographer Chris Geworsky for making us look good. He was a regular Nigel Barker.

Other favourite thing: The Husband had a birthday this week, so, hooray for him!

Not so much a favourite this week: ANTM giving me a frigging recap of the season. I was promised Vogue EE-tahl-ee-ah cover shoots and Cavalli runways. Tyra Banks owes me an hour of my life.

Since I’ve been living in a bit of a cave these days, I asked readers to tell me what their favourites of the week are. Y’all didn’t disappoint. Here they are:

Jill loves: David Sedaris in Halifax, the Pop Culture Happy Hour (I kind of want to do one of these – maybe we can talk to CKDU), and Chapters.ca (possibly because she got to see David Sedaris at Chapters…her, Anthony and Intern Krista are all lucky bitches for getting to go while I was stuck at home with a speech).

Elaine loves the BCBG top she found at a consignment store. The top is “Hot Mama” level awesome.

Joyce loves her new purse and so do old men in rural Cape Breton (go figure!):

 

Melanie loves these boots, that are possibly like an arctic Day-to-Night Barbie:

 

Gillian’s favourite thing is getting ready for the Halifax Crafters (I am with her on that. I’ve got an office full of monkeys).

Allison’s favourite thing are tall grey suede Hush Puppies boots from John David. Her not so favourite thing? Buying ice cream, getting it home, and then finding out someone had already eaten some of it. Like, ate it at the store. Ewwwww.

and finally, Amy is excited about the LouMac Jewellery & Crafts Holiday Launch that’s happening at the Granite Brewery tonight. I hadn’t heard about this  – can someone fill me in?

Ally: Worked late last night, so didn’t have time to add to this. Thanks for helping out Twitter Peeps! xoxo
