So if you don’t have kids, it is acceptable to be completely obsessed with your dog, right? She is so cute!

This last episode of Top Chef was great. Not only do I love Penn and Teller, but I also love Toby Young. His comments are always entertaining. I am not that fond of Michelle Bernstein as a guest judge. She always seems pissed off and brings completely lame prizes for the elimination challenge winner. Last season she brought copies of her new book and this season a set of pots and pans. Um, cool?

Kevin Gillespie is my pick for winner this season. Not only is he obviously talented, but he seems like a genuinely nice and funny person. He has a cool beard, is very articulate, and is perpetually in a good mood. Also, he kills at horse shoes. He may be one of my favorites of all the seasons so far. I hope the finale is Kevin and the Voltaggio brothers.

It’s been a week since we adopted our dog Boomer from the Humane Society. She’s starting to feel comfortable in our house and we love having her here. She needs some obedience training, but is such a sweetheart. Boomer is half whippet, half rat terrier and very fast!

Jeffrey Thomas is an illustrator who created a series based on beloved Disney characters, Twisted Princesses. I am in love with these!

Yesterday I saw Extract, Mike Judge’s new film starring Jason Bateman. It was pretty funny and had some memorable lines, but wasn’t anything to write home about. One of the previews before the movie was Fantastic Mr. Fox, a Wes Anderson film based on the Roald Dahl book. This is a movie I am very excited about. Not only do I love this book, but the film looks witty, whimsical, and distinctly Wes Anderson.
