Summer wouldn’t be summer without a trip to Louie’s in Port Washington. Made it in under the wire!
A flock of herons (not to be confused with A Flock of Seagulls) at Point Lookout, Long Island.
I knew about this last week, but it’s so exciting to see it being reported by Broadway World!
Sara Baeilles’ sophomore album, Kaleidoscope Heart is slated for release in four days. But with the wonderful world of internets, we don’t have to wait any longer!
“Get Outta My Way,” is the second single from Kylie Minogue’s hit, new album, Aphrodite. This is such an awesome music video! Too bad it’s not eligible for this year’s VMAs.

The first episode of @officialMelB Mel B.’s new show, It’s A Scary World, debuts on the Style Channel this Sunday, September 5th. But, I’ve found the first episode online!
