So…I’ve been thinking all day about what I wanted to blog about and realized the reason for my writer’s block.

I’ve had enough of the financial markets. I’ve had enough of the economic slowdown, enough of being a tightwad. And enough uncertainty.

What can’t I get enough of?

Mad Men. If you have cable, you have no excuse. The characters have plenty of money. Don Draper and Co’s shortfalls lie in other areas. But boy do they look good. And the 1960’s cultural stuff is fascinating.

Eggs Benedict. Is there a more perfect breakfast food? Who has the best hollandaise sauce?

Fail Blog. Speaking of failures, here’s a site dedicated to them that will make you laugh. Thanks to my husband for introducing me to this hilarious, bizarre photo/video blog documenting failures of all types. This is user-generated content, so if you fail to find sometimes juvenile and crude humor amusing, take a pass.

This weather. Played outside with my kids for hours this morning. Like this market nonsense, this too shall pass. So turn off the TV. Drop the financial statement. Enjoy it while you can.
