From one of my favorite albums in a while…

I am obsessed with these gorgeous cloth hardcover books designed by Coralie Bickford Smith for Penguin classics. There are a handful of them on Amazon and two of them arrived on my doorstep today. Gorgeous. I want to collect them all.

I ordered The Picture of Dorian Gray and Jane Eyre.

Check out this new Radiohead song available as a free download from their site….

My NoVa friends will appreciate this one…

I can hardly believe it but we are moving to Boise this weekend. I am looking forward to a new chapter in my life but am sad to say goodbye to Salt Lake City, where we have lived for the past three years. We really loved it here and there is a lot that we are going to miss about it. We’ll just be a short 4.5 hour drive away so we will be back quite frequently, but it just wont be the same. Here are a few of our favorite things that we will truly miss…

- Powder snow, day after day, all winter long… this is going to be the hardest
- Wasatch Mountains… I’ll miss having the big mountains as a backdrop, escaping the heat for hikes in the summer and playing in the snow in the winter
- All of our friends and family here
- Sundance Film Festival and SLC’s indie film scene
- Free summer concerts downtown from some great bands that I would have paid to see but didn’t have to.
- SLC’s fabulous downtown library
- Our favorite and most frequented restaurants… Red Iguana, Chanon Thai, Blue Plate, Toasters, Moochies, etc.
- Walking my dogs at Liberty Park
- All of the great bakeries downtown (being able to get authentic German bread and pastries reminded me of my time in Germany)
- Weekend trips to Moab
