Fish Tank
netflixmoviesthatdontsuck:
The best thing about this movie is the characters are not black and white. The movie is shown through the eyes of a delinquent teenage girl named Mia.

And I ate a big bowl of spicy chicken ramen soup for dinner at Momofuku Noodle Bar. I know it sounds completely insane but it looked too good on the menu to pass up! I’ll probably end up eating nothing but popsicles the rest of the weekend to recalibrate.

WatchI’m completely in love with this miniseries already. Todd Haynes and company have done a wonderful job with this Mildred Pierce. I meant to only watch the first part and I haven’t been able to turn it off.

Wishful Thinking
Tonight before heading out for non-St. Patrick’s Day themed drinks with Josh and Jason I stumbled in on the James Perse sample sale in the Chelsea Market.

I’m looking forward to being really sweaty in...
