A preview of why I woke up so early this morning. My dear friend and amazingly talented writer, Matthew Allard, asked me to take some photos of him. So I did, and it was lovely. His loft makes me swoon a little bit. Matt likes bright colors and fun, and I really wanted the photos to reflect who he was in the color palette. I opted for lots of natural sunlight, super saturation & contrast to compliment the energy of his writing.
One of the benefits of waking up before 6:30am: this beautiful sunrise.
A reminder to myself and other creatives, as inspired by a rainy Los Angeles morning and the wonderful free writing program that is Ommwriter. Download. Create. Enjoy.
You should feel humbled by the things you know
And that great, big, bursting, beautiful brain of yours
Full of ideas,
Both minute and infinite,
Questionable and true,
But nonetheless bold and uncorrupted —
At least through your eyes
And those are the only ones that matter.
A wonderful mini apple crisp recipe that I found, topped with the most patriotic dessert of all, Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream. They were surprisingly easy to make, adorable and delicious.

The Arclight theater in Hollywood has a part of The Fantastic Mr. Fox set (the science lab) with the puppets used in the movie. I was lucky enough to attend a screening last week with Wes Anderson & Jason Schwartzman, and I have to say that the movie is absolutely delightful, funny and all-around adorable. The stop motion animation and attention to detail, whether it’s the color palette or the way the wind hits the characters’ faces, is incredible. They said that it took a full day to animate mere seconds. The painstaking dedication alone is admirable. But the script and cinematography are what made me fall in love with the movie. Fantastic Mr. Fox opens in New York and LA today. Go see it!
By comparison, only 1 percent of Americans are millionaires.
And the number of plutocrats could be higher still:
One caveat on those numbers: Federal financial disclosure laws don’t require members to list the value of their personal residences. That information could alter the net worth picture for many lawmakers.
