September. When life as I know it resumes…
Ah, the fall. When the weather turns cooler, the air gets crisper, the windows stay open… Okay, so…that’s not happening. It’s scorching here. But it will happen, right? At some point, doesn’t it have to? I feel like I’m living on the sun.
However, the return of (pleasepleaseplease) cooler weather also signals another paradigm shift… My shows are back on! My shows are back on! (/Steve Martin The Jerk voice.) Thankyouthankyou, show gods!
Yes, sadly, it takes so little to make me happy. Pardon me whilst I skip in circles!
Along with Castle, Grey’s Anatomy, and Big Bang Theory (congrats on the Emmy, Jim Parsons! SO deserved!!) my favorite guilty pleasures all come back to mama. This month we get the return of Survivor, Amazing Race (Hi, Phil!!!), Dancing With the Stars, and a soon-to-be new favorite of mine, Top Chef: Just Desserts. (You all know I just started writing a series set in a cupcake bakery, right? So how much do I love this!) Well, I better love it more than Cupcake Wars. Biggest. Cooking Show. Disappointment. Ever.
And, if this in’t just enough guilty gluttony, a trio of my favorite authors are also putting books out that I can’t wait to read! Janet Evanovich is giving us the Diesel-inspired book, WICKED APPETITE (also set in a cupcake bakery as it happens - hey, Janet…buddy!), Teresa Medeiros with THE DEVIL WEARS PLAID (Teresa Does Scotland is always my favorite!) and Jennifer Crusie with MAYBE THIS TIME! Woot! Also on my nightstand right now is JULIET by newcomer Anne Fortier and wow, loving it!
It’s a veritable entertainment extravaganza! All I need is some new music and a few good movies and it will be amusement overload. Speaking of fun movies, I rented Valentine’s Day. How much fun is that movie? Lots, I say! Crazy amazing casting!
