What I Like Today

1. The Weepies
I think Lady Susan was the one who mentioned The Weepies in a comment last summer and sent me off to find them. Excellent recommendation. Today I like these two songs of theirs.

All That I Want


Can't Go Back Now
(I like puppets.)


I also like their song, "Nobody Knows Me At All," but there are no puppets in that video.

2. Cake Batter
Pour some boxed cake mix into a mug. Add a TINY bit of water. Mix until you have a nice, thick sludge. Toss in some walnut pieces. Eat and feel sick. I find this immensely satisfying under the proper circumstances. (Today the circumstances happen to be that I really want pad thai and I have no way of procuring it for myself.) Straight cake batter is so sweet that you may as well just inject an IV of corn syrup directly into a vein, if you don't have cake mix handy.

Yeah! I am glad that I could share the wonderfulness that is (or is it are?) The Weepies! These are some of my particular favorites as well. The puppet clip was great.

The cake batter idea makes me want to puke. But if it makes you happy...

I really liked the "Can't Go Back Now" song and the puppets really added to the experience!

Eliana--It sicks me out too and offends my sensibilities, and yet . . .

Lady Susan and Ann-Marie--Puppets are almost always a good idea.
