I love buying flowers, they add so much life to the house (even though they are technically dying in front of your eyes) They donât need to be fancy -Â cheap ones from the local supermarket will do. I like the ceremony of arranging them in a vase and placing them on a random shelf and seeing new colours quite literally blossom. I wish people bought me flowers more, that's really the only gift I crave. If I had it my way I would live in a greenhouse.

Great movie to kick off the new year, on at 9 PM on the 31st at the Studio Galande cinema in the 5th arrondissement, lots of fun and probably very nice people to meet. Come dressed up for extra fun.
As a bonus, I believe it's the only theatre in the world that's been showing the movie weekly with actors since it first came out in 1975, so that's pretty cool !

If youâre from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Donât! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, itâs worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because itâs cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. Itâs not really anything special visually but itâs a beautiful institution and itâs so fun to be there â¤ď¸
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loewâs Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! Itâs pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but itâs a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

I love eggs. Not only are they versatile, they are beautiful. From that perfect oval shape when whole to a puddle of whites and yolk when cracked, their appearance (and taste!) can take on many forms. My apartment in London is somewhat egg themedâŚI have a rug in the shape of a fried egg, a painting of an egg hung up on my kitchen wall and I keep my jewelry on a ceramic fried egg. I love yellow and white as a colour combo - it is very chic.

I feel like I used to be a lot smarter than I am now, so in a desperate attempt to regain brain cells I have been paying attention to the news. Woo! For a while now, every morning I will listen to the Guardian newspaper's daily news podcast - it focuses on a topical subject within world politics - the latest failing by the Government or the fallout of a natural disaster. It's insightful, nuanced and balancedâŚAnd makes me feel like less of an idiot

Ever since I can remember I have loved pasta with tomato sauce. If someone put a curse on me which meant I could only eat pasta pomodoro for the rest of my life I would say âomg yayâ. I am a pasta pomodoro connoisseur - I have eaten it all over the world, from Japan to Cuba. It is also one of the only dishes I can cook myself (apart from eggs as we know). Recipe: Slow roast cherry tomatoes in the oven with oil, salt and garlic on a low heat for 2 hours and then add in the pasta - yum!
