Lighting fires

I know, I know...you might all think I just sit around here at Sassafrass not blogging and not buying shoes. Some of that's true. But I'm also hard at work starting conversational fires on Shine. Grab your s'mores stuffs, friends, and let's get cooking about what I can do, don't know about and could obviously give some extra effort:

• Apparently, I can't tell the difference between Pippa's bootayyy and Kate's. I'm clearly at a disadvantage since they probably teach that class in Women's Studies grad school now and so didn't when I was there. Oh well.

• This lady became a lawyer while she was in labor. I listened to Sarah McLachlan and flipped off the camera.

• "Body of the Year" went to...not-Brooklyn Decker. Hooray! And I discover I crack myself up making fun of Kardashians even more than I would have guessed.

• Cheesecake Factory's new menu makeover is called "SkinnyLicious." I call for a ban on adding "licious" to any words. I also call for a full-calorie slice of key lime cheesecake, thank you.

• This film competition is long over. But the six-line challenge is new to me and I can't stop thinking about it...and how to say what I need to say in a much more concise way (and not rhyme).

• Rosario Dawson is pissed she was told she looked good when she was emaciated for her role in "Rent."  StupidLicious beauty standards.

• Real-live placentas ground into pills for new moms. With video. You're welcome.
