Friday Favorites – 2018: Chapter One

January 5, 2018 By AJ 1 Comment

Happy new year, everybody! I think we can all agree 2017 was the worst and so I have no choice but to conclude this year can only be BETTER. Seems sound, right? If 2010 was “The Year of Suck” (that’s what I always refer to it as), then I hereby proclaim 2017 as “The Year of the Dumpster Fire.” You’re welcome. But I am still bookmarking odds and ends for these “Friday Favorites” and here is 2018: Chapter One for you.

Friday Favorites - 2018: Chapter One

WHAT I READ

  • If ever you wondered about the difference between “gangster” and “gangsta,” Jeopardy has you covered. Sort of.
  • A myriad of Broadway stars are getting TV specials in 2018 and I am here for it.
  • This exchange between Sarah Silverman and a so-called Twitter troll is rather special.
  • A look back at all of the Chrises in 2017.

OTHER BLOGGERS & INFLUENCERS

  • Amy published her best concert photos of 2017 and it’s a beautiful collection.
  • Jessica reflects on the idiocy and danger of Logan Paul. A must-read.
  • Raquel has compiled a cornucopia of chili recipes and YUM!
  • Hudson & Emily took off to visit all 50 states. Their time in California made ME want to visit California — and I live here.

EARLIER THIS WEEK

  • The trailer for Patrick Melrose came out and it looks fabulous. I love Benedict Cumberbatch.
  • I gave away some pizza. Fresh Brothers is delicious and congrats to the winner, Lindsay!
  • The BRUNCHIES hath been awarded! Get a look at all the winners here.
  • How did YOU say good-bye to 2017? Well, I rode a mother-effing camel in the desert. And it was AMAZING.

VIDEO SPOTLIGHT

  • YOU GUYS. The Animaniacs are COMING BACK. I am SO EXCITED. In tribute, enjoy my all-time favorite segment, “Yakko’s World” featuring the incredible voice stylings of Rob Paulsen:

  • And one more thing, speaking of Dumpster Fires, this nonsense about “Fire and Fury” is astounding. So watch the video of the author, Michael Wolff, on ‘TODAY’ this morning and that is all.

  • And because I refuse to end on that note, here:

Friday Favorites And One Crazy Work Week

June 16, 2017 By AJ Leave a Comment

I don’t mind telling you all that I am one tired lady right now. In the middle of launching a theatrical documentary as well as several more “day and date” titles (those are films that come out in theaters and on demand on the same day) and it’s a LOT! But I’m also having a blast and it’s been a crazy and rewarding week.

Friday Favorites

WHAT I READ

  • My company’s exciting film, Score: A Film Music Documentary, is getting great reviews all over and it’s blowing our minds. We were the New York Times Critics Pick!
  • If you ever do the drive from LA to Vegas, read this list of great restaurants to try along the way. I’ve been to Peggy Sue’s Diner, which is a lot of fun!
  • Rudolph’s Bar & Tea looks like a place I wanna hang out in. Don’tcha think?

OTHER BLOGGERS & INFLUENCERS

  • A downtown restaurant, that I personally do not care for, embarrassed themselves with an incident involving an influencer.
  • We Are Midlife recommends wide leg pants — I am so happy they’re back.
  • I always love Chris’ end-of-the-week lists! Here’s her latest.
  • Melissa’s recipe for Pesto Bites looks DELICIOUS!

EARLIER THIS WEEK

  • I was working on my personal brunch database (oh yes, I have one) — I had to add The Topanga Table.
  • NBC 4 came to our special advanced screening of SCORE on Wednesday night!

  • I threw a spotlight on some restaurants offering up amazing Father’s Day brunches over at Hollywood Brunch on Instagram.

VIDEO SPOTLIGHT

  • Ice T is helping Sonic sell Iced Teas and I think the commercial is hilarious! 
  • I don’t watch Angie Tribeca, but now I may need to.

  • Is anyone else watching FUNDERDOME? I think the name is pretty stupid and the prizing mechanic is kind of lame, but I love seeing new inventions and entrepreneurs. So far my favorite idea is the Airhook:

  • I’ll leave you with this bit. Dear Evan Hansen took home a lot of Tony Awards on Sunday and deservedly so. The show is beautiful. From the same composers who wrote La La Land, by the way. The cast’s performance of “Waving Through the Window” was stunning and when star Ben Platt won his “Best Actor” award, he said something that has stuck with me ever since:

“Don’t waste time trying to be like anybody else… the things that make you strange are the things that make you powerful.

I keep these quotes or odes in my favorite photos folder in my phone and oftentimes, at least one of these little cards brings me a lot of comfort. If any of all of them do that for you, I am happy to share them. Scroll through, read, and let these ideas sink in. #mentalhealth #quarantinelife #selflove #selfcare #inspo #instaquote #instaquotes #instagood #friendship
I was talking with some friends today about teache I was talking with some friends today about teachers. And it made me think about my most favorite teachers. At U of A, Professor Bernardi recognized my talent for writing and inspired me to wish for bigger things. He helped me see, at a very tough time, that I could still achieve great things. But I never would have found such a love for writing were it not for Mr. Perry, my English teacher in my senior year of high school, who taught me that every word should have a purpose. And in high school, there was also Mr. Thomas, who instilled in me a deep love of history. I also thought about my beloved elementary school teachers - there were a few at my school I adored. Among them, Mrs. Borin who was just a cool, cool lady. She was a forward-thinker and I was lucky that after my fourth grade year, she moved up to sixth grade so I got to have her again. And pictured with me here is Mrs. Klepetar, who happens to be my friend's Mom (something we did not even put together until we'd been friends for a few years), who recognized a seven year old who flat out resented math but got her to take a little more pride in it with customized extra credit assignments -- she gave me an audience to show my work and that was pretty clever. THANK YOUR TEACHERS, friends. ESPECIALLY NOW. They help shape the adults we become. #teachersrule #Thankyouteachers #TBT

Hint: This is a #GIVEAWAY POST! I was catching som Hint: This is a #GIVEAWAY POST! I was catching some good light while I cleaned my apartment today so why not a #cosplay #maskselfie? @myshieldmask is actually a client now but was my favorite mask brand before that happened, I swear. They’re soft and comfortable and come out great when I wash them. Also, loads of colors and patterns to choose from, sizes, etc. Basically I can’t gush enough about them. (10 Points for Gryffindor!!!) AND if you are a RAVENCLAW, I have a mask for you, too. (See: Next slide.) Drop a comment if you want to be in the raffle. #wearamask #quarantinelife #harrypotter #ravenclaw #gryffindor
