Just FYI? The Vosges Barcelona bar is ridiculously good.

Potential Summer Wardrobe Plan
This iPhone photo of yesterday's outfit, while horrible and blurry, etc, pretty much encapsulates what I think I may be wearing on a day-to-day basis this summer once I grow out of those damn Internet-upheaving shorts.

X-Men: First Class / Hell, Yes
I am a total nerd, and so excited for X-Men: First Class that I think it's turning my husband on. I am excited because these movies are awesome generally, but also because: James McAvoy. I am SO ON BOARD with this casting decision.
And speaking of, I just read this review in Game Informer:
"X-Men: First Class tells the origin story of Magneto and Professor X. However, instead of starring Captain Picard and Ian McGandalf, it features two B-grade Hollywood hunks in these key roles. No matter how this movie turns out, it has to be better than X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Remember when he jumped of a jeep onto a helicopter?!"
Disagree. Disagree so hard. (Points for the Captain Picard reference.) I mean, excuse me, but WOLVERINE WAS AMAZING. And mostly because he jumped out of a jeep onto a helicopter. So there goes that review.

I was expecting fitness tips and faux cocktails.

High Heels and Hot Pants If I Want To
OK, so yesterday a couple of charming people came running over here to get all hot and bothered about the fact that I wore shorts! And heels! And I'm pregnant!
Deviled Egg Tips
1. The night before you're planning on getting started, flip your egg cartons onto their side in your refrigerator...
Himalayan Salt Plate
Cooooool.
Kendrick came home from a weekend in Ohio with one a Himalayan Salt Plate - a gift for me from our friend Matt - and while I don't quite get how to use it yet, I am so excited to figure it out.
The little pamphlet that came with the salt plate says that you can use it to grill on to infuse whatever you're making with flavor, or chill it and use it as a serving platter for things like sushi and cheese. It's naturally anti-macrobial, so it's easy to clean, and it does change color/shape over time - the pamphlet even says that someday, when it gets too small for cooking or serving on, it "will be a perfect size to grate over your food, break up for making soup, or even throw in your tub for a detoxifying salt bath." SO COOL.
Now, the chilling and serving I get...but the grilling is confounding me a bit. Do you have to use oil if you don't want the meat (or whatever) to stick? What kinds of things taste best when grilled on it? Can you put it in the oven to bake things on, or is it for stovetop use only?
Boho Summer Dresses
Hi Jordan! I have a wedding coming up and I want to look amazing, with a bohemian edge (why you seemed like the perfect person to ask about this).
