testing the rolling pin
Turns out that the rolling pin has a crooked handle and just will not do. You can not settle when it comes to your kitchen tools.
smells like teen spirit
Remember last week's post about Guns n Roses cover? This week we have another alternative take on an iconic song. Patti Smith's cover of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit is fantastic. Give it a listen.
living with masterpieces
When I saw this scene in our little local art museum, I was dumb struck.
I've been fascinated with the 1,400+ pieces of art discovered in a German apartment, many of which could have been stolen by the Nazis during the war. I am obsessed with the story and have been following it for months. It's not that some old German guy might have stolen art, it's not even the huge numbers involved or the calibre of the artists that has captured my imagination. What keeps me engrossed in the story is the thought of living with so many masterpieces in your own home.
How do you view that art? After a while do you just walk by it as though it was nothing? After all, it's been hanging on your wall for years. Do you find yourself stopping and staring at your favorite pieces? Do you even need a TV or can you just pull your couch around so that it faces some particularly wondrous masterpiece?
How do you live with all of that incredible art?
