Weekly Lovelist

I’m really enjoying putting together this list, and it seems all of you like to read it too, so I will continue with it from now on, when I can. I hope you enjoy this week’s list.


Bird Necklace
This is a simple necklace I put together that I’m loving for the summer. Very cute and goes with many things!




Blueberry Rice Crispie Treats
While eating a bowl of rice crispies for breakfast has become the norm for me (gluten-free and all), I hadn’t had any of these gooey snacks for a long time. The idea came to me this weekend, and then my Mom picked fresh blueberries from a local farm for us – and I thought, wow, those would be good with rice crispies! Or would they? Sometimes you just never know until you try something.



This is what they looked like. I didn’t get a great shot, any suggestions on food shots? They looked and tasted much better in person. They were really great, and the blueberries was a really great idea on my part. Almost like a grown-up spin to a favorite kid classic.


True Blood
Season 3 of True Blood is getting better with each episode. They are straying off the path of the books, which isn’t anything new. I really don’t mind it at all though. It is like a new story with the same characters (pretty much) while still being basically outlined by the book’s stories.

Eric is getting much more face time on the show, so I am happy as can be. Plus, from the preview for the next episode it looks like he and Sookie will be getting together for real (or at least we can hope).

Tara is with a vampire, and she of course invites him inside Sookie’s house. What is with her and wanting to ruin Sookie’s house? Seriously, she is a terrible friend in a lot of ways to her.

Jason wants to be a cop? I didn’t really see that coming. Eric gave Lafayette a really expensive car. I sure hope he at least replaces Sookie’s bloodstained rug from the werewolf he killed in her house. Maybe he’ll buy her a new car or something too. That’d be nice.

Yes, I did see the Snoop Dog video for Sookie Stackhouse. It played after last week’s episode. Too funny. Thanks Melanie for mentioning it. If anyone missed it, check it out:




Rain
Having it rain often this week was quite nice. I enjoy the rain, and while I don’t enjoy lightning hitting us or possible tornadoes, I love the sound of rain. Hmm. Maybe I should try finding some CDs of rain or thunderstorms. Any suggestions?


So You Think You Can Dance
So You Think You Can Dance is back on, and this season is really good. Even though I can’t stand a couple of the dancers, like Adechike (he is so NOT Ade) and Jose (Legacy was SO MUCH better), I like quite a few, like Alex and Billy.

Check out this video of Twitch and Alex. It is my favorite so far! This guy is a ballet dancer, and he did this! It was insane! One of the best performances on SYTYCD history (in my opinion).




* I Hope the video stays up, if not search for So You Think You Can Dance Twitch and Alex on You Tube. I wish So You Think You Can Dance had their seasons on DVD because when they take them off You Tube we have no way of watching these amazing performances. Nigel Lithgoe, are you listening?
