– read Pride and Prejudice. Accidentally. Explanation: I like reading while eating my breakfast. Much to the detriment of my brain cells, my table has been well-stocked with catalogs and magazines. But late last week, GOD FORBID!, I had run out of inane material and I shuffled over to the bookshelf and grabbed the pretty, hardcover, B&N Austen collection. Because it's pretty.

I read about a page and I WAS HOOKED! I finished it in 3 days. Suck it, Twilight.
– made my first pie crust from scratch. It didn't suck and it didn't cost me $5 and a bunch of packaging, so my wallet and THE WORLD win. So did my stomach. Yum.
– how great is Northeast?
– did you know you can get in the Guthrie and just walk around? That place is super neat. (AND they're playing Pride and Prejudice right now. [No, this isn't a sponsored post.])
– these kids. They don't get more normal every day.


– thanks to David Chin for the hilarious and lovely photos.
– I've voted LITERALLY about 1000 times for this guy on So You Think You Can Dance.

Mostly because he's had to wear a shirt every single episode, but also because he's a great Latin dancer and a total sweetheart and I KNOW HIM. MINNESOTAN!
VOTE FOR ALAN!
How was your week? Enjoying the Minnesota… fall?

Two years ago: Dance Me to the End of Love, in which I give really good advice to people who are about to wed.
