Yay for Yelle!

Yelle just released a new video for my all-time favorite song ever (by Yelle or other artists) "Ce Jeu".

It features everything a typical Yelle video does: Shiny floor, black background, and fun / interesting lighting. Oh and course silly costumes that flirt with being "nouvelle-rave".

C'est tres tres bon!

Palin Drones (On and On)

Hi hello. Is it bias if I'm about to supply a bunch of links from Jezebel which feature videos highlighting why I do not like Sarah Palin?

Yes, if the word bias means "the right thing to do"!

Here are the worst highlights from her interview with Charles Gibson.

Here are the hightlights of the worst parts of Palin's interview Kaite Couric.

And a YouTube clip of Cindy "Botox and Vicadin Cocktail" McCain ( she has the best candy ):



Also, I read that Cindy McCain was giving a speech about how her and her husband were torn apart by The View panel. Juhs so you can see how savage they were, here is a clip from Gawker:

Oh The View!

How I miss watching you in between my classes. The Japanese View is no good ( it also does not exist.)

OH and of course, the soon-to-be legendary SNL season opener (in case you haven't seen it). Dead on impression that is also kind of depressing because of how much truth there is too it.

La Mere du Style

So Yves Saint-Laurent died a few months ago (making this post a little late) but his mother is still kickin'! I like how most old ladies from Europe still get fancy and take care of themselves.

Of course, she is super-wealthy, but ya know...

Mackin' on my Macarons

If you know me personally, then you know that when I watch a movie that I like, I usually become fairly obsessed with it.

Anyways, I watched "Marie Antoinette" the other day and pretty much loved Sophia Coppola's signature cinematography and story-telling.

The costumes, food, lighting, etc. etc. were all brilliant!

Naturally, the pastries were a highlight for me and as a result, when I come home from Japan (and if I still like the idea) I plan on making batches and batches of these:


There's one slight problem since these macarons (note the one less O to make sure you're not confused with a coconut macaroon) are basically like meringues which translates to "virtually impossible to make vegan".

But do not fret.

At my Christmas dinner party there will be plenty of vegan sweets like these to be passed around.

Bizarre Note: I live in Tokyo as of right now and I love the films "Marie Antoinette" and "The Virgin Suicides" yet Sophia Coppola's existentalists in Tokyo film "Lost in Translation" bores me to tears! I attempted to watch it again last night and I finished the first half and had no desire to wait 20 minutes to load the second half of the film. What's wrong with me?!
