Everyday, it will rain...rain rain.

Gorgeous. Tragic. Wet. Italian. Watch it.

Lovecats: Blair and Chuck

Have you guys been watching Gossip Girl?

You know I love her--xoxo--but I have not been enjoying the continued separation of Chuck and Blair. If there were ever two lovecats that deserved a break, it was these two scheming upper-east-siders. For reals.

I fully recognize that in order to keep the plot interesting, suspenseful and compelling, they need to present our beloved manipulators with challenges to their relationship.  I fully recognize that if Chuck and Blair were too happy for too long, I might get bored.

Might.

Maybe.  Possibly.  Probably.  Not.

But you know what else makes a plot boring?  Babies. 

Yep.  I said it.  Ha.

Don't get me wrong:  like many 27+2 year olds, I am baby obsessed--and that is putting it mildly.  I have tried to kidnap my friend's children.  Literally.  And it didn't go over well, I'm afraid. 

But when young characters on escapist teen dramas have babies, it never goes well. They become mothers with real problems (ie Andrea Zuckerman and Haley James Scott).  And we don't watch GG for insight into real problems.  I want Blair to sport the newest dress from Victoria Beckham's new line...not a breast pump.

How do you think Blair will deal with this transition?  What do you think the writers have planned? What are your predictions for the couple?

Love, Hate, Unclear: 9.8

I love me some Gingerbread Construction Company muffins. If you are from the Boston area, and haven't sampled these delectable mini-cakes of joy and butter, then you my friend, are missing out.  It is a sin to live your life without them.

I hate Puss n' Boots. Who does he think he is, anyway?  I think he is an asshat.

I'm not sure what to think about cookies with no sugar, butter, flour or eggs.  Sounds miserable, but they look soooo good and hearty.  Apparently mashed banana holds them together. I must investigate.

Love, Hate, Unclear.

I hate these commercials.

I love everything Michael Kors touches/creates.

I love bacon. I love jam. Unclear how I feel about their marriage. TBD.
